Sleeping Beauty


Ella slept through the night last night for the first time. She was in bed asleep by 9 and didn't wake up until almost 7am. I of course was up a few times in the middle of the night to make sure she was okay. Mommy is definitely not used to getting uninterrupted sleep, that's for sure. Ella was happy as can be this morning when I got her out of her crib but I was ready to burst. Long periods between nursing her really makes sleeping uncomfortable...I was up at six hoping she'd wake up and take some of the milk off my chest...literally! :)

We spent most of the afternoon shopping and I bought her some teething rings. She's starting to drool a lot and would rather chew on her hand or suck her thumb than take her pacifier. Ron is against her sucking her thumb, and for the most part I agree. Though it is really nice she can comfort herself by sucking her thumb and can put herself to sleep with it.
