Rob bundled Julie up and took her for a stroll around the house the other day, she looked so cute all warm and snuggly.
And this is like the first time I put a short sleeve shirt on her without a long sleeve onesie underneath. Back when it was getting warm and the sun was out. Hopefully those days will come back soon! I love seeing her bare arms, they are so soft.
Just in the last week of doing tummy time and really working hard to strengthen Julie's neck, her neck has gotten a lot stronger where she is not so wobbly when sitting her up. She can't quite lift it off the floor yet, but she can get her head turned from one side to the other when laying on her tummy. It is so fun to play with her on the floor, she gets so excited. We sat her inside the boppy pillow and she just swayed back and forth, but she did very well with keeping her head up.
Just chillin during tummy time!
We are now back on a schedule. I love schedules!
So, we feed her at 10:00p.m. and then swaddle her and put her to bed. If she wakes during the night, we give her about a half an hour to get herself back to sleep on her own before we go in. And really, she falls asleep every time, so we have not had to go in for about a week now during the night. Anywhere from 6:30-7:00a.m. she wakes up and we get up for the day, Rob gets ready for work and I feed Julie and change her diaper and then we have a little play time on the floor before she goes down for her first nap. She usually sleeps for about and hour every nap time. Then at 10:00, feed her, change her, play time, and nap time. This happens every three hours. Then at 7:00p.m. after feeding and changing her diaper, we play with her and try to keep her awake until 10:00p.m., kind of hard, she does usually always fall asleep. She has done so well, getting back onto a schedule. She just went with the groove.

Thanks for posting this! We've been trying what you suggested, and had 3 great nights in a row!!! Then Dave had a long weekend from school, so we got a little out of our routine and... back to square one. But reading this gives me more motivation to get a good night's rest!
