Getting ready to transition to crib!

We had a wonderful time last weekend with Laura, Ellie and Helene. It was so great to see them and for them to meet Natalie. Natalie LOVED Ellie. She smiled at her all day long! We are know getting ready for Grandi (Andi) to come to town on Sunday for a week. It will be so nice for her to have time with Natalie and really nice for me to get away to do things alone (I already have a massage scheduled). Megan comes out next Thursday and will return home with Andi the following Sunday. I can't wait for her to get here! I already have a shopping trip to the Outlet mall planned for us!

Natalie is doing really well. She is only getting up once, around 4am. We are going to try to move her to her crib this week. The crib has been a big problem for us since she came home from the hospital. She does not like it at all. She will sleep about 20 min in the crib and wake up crying. I figured after trying to get her in there it was much better (and healthier) for her to sleep well. All babies are different that is for sure! We never tried to schedule her sleep habits and she has naturally progressed on her own. She generally naps twice a day, but when there is company she normally stays up and skips her naps. This always leads to a three hour crying/fussing/nursing session at night. I think she just is so stimulated from people she doesn't want to miss whats going on! Anyways we are going to attempt to get her in her room now. I figured it is a good time with Andi in town to help us.
