Double Chin

Look at those cheeks and chins... gosh how I love that face!

On a proud parent note... Raegan has been a champ this week with sleep. Each night she has given us between 7 - 9 hours of sleep from Monday through last night. Nothing like making a first time mom feel like she is doing something right! I honestly believe it is the feedinig schedule we have had her on since she was 4 weeks old. She eats every 2 1/2 - 3 hours during the day. We have a "beginning of the day feeding" at 6 am, she eats again at 8:30, 11:30, 2:30, 5:30 and then her "end of the day feeding at 8:30" and then right to bed afterwards. Regardless if she is sleeping or not at each feeding time, we'll wake her up with a diaper change and she always will then eat. From her night feeding to her morning feeding we would then just feed her whenever she would wake up requesting it. In the beginning she would get up about 3 times during the night, then after a week she was down to 2 times getting up. This week was the first week that on some nights she just skipped her middle of the night feedings all together. Last night she was down by 9 after eatting and then didn't get up this morning until 4:30. We'll take it.

Adorable picture!!! I think you could put her in anything and she still would rock out the outfit.

Way to go Mom on figuring out the best schedule for Raegan and not being afraid to try different things and see how they work. You are doing an amazing job Katie...

Love you guys,
Grandma
