SLEEPING!!

SLEEPING



(04-30-11) Jillian snoozing in the car



In the last week Jillian has been making great strides in the sleeping department.  She has finally started consistantly sleeping for 5 hours without waking.  She used to do only 4 most of the time.  Also she is learning how to get herself back to sleep.  For those who don't know we did try the fuss it out method when she was younger, but she would get so upset she would vomit.  Therefore for the longest time she made mommy and daddy very nervous to let her cry to long without getting her. Something about finding her asleep in a pile of vomit...  She is no longer doing this in fact last night we heard her stir around 3 am and only fussed a tiny bit.  I"m guessing she found herself one of the many pacifiers that lined her crib.  We didn't hear from her again until nearly 7 this morning.  It has been nice getting consecutive hours of sleep!

 BUSY WEEKEND

This weekend was busy with playing and visiting.  Friday night we went to Brian and Anna's to celebrate mother's day with them. Jillian had fun playing with her big cousin Benjamin :).  On Saturday morning we hit up some garage sales, followed by lunch with Rick's parents.  We went on a walk around the neighborhood and even took Jillian to the little park at Grace Lutheran Church. Saturday evening Rick went out with the boys for a Bachlor party, a little while later Jess went out to a comedy club with the girls for the bachlorette party. Jillian went to hang out with her meemaw. She ended up staying the night there.  This is the first time Jillian has ever stayed over night anywhere.  She did OK.. but did wake up pretty frequently.  She knew it was different.   Boy where mommy and daddy glad to see her the next morning, but not too early since we slept in after being up till 2am!

The car was the best garage sale find of the day.  I found a few clothes and some cute rain boots.  I did also manage to snag a booster seat.  She has really liked playing in Amy's car so she knew jsut what to do with this one.
