WOW! What a day! Natalie and I woke up this morning at 2:30am, she didn't cry to wake me up but she was just laying in her bassinet making noises. She looked so CUTE! I went and made her a bottle, fed her and snuggled with her, we ended up falling asleep together on the bed. We slept for the next 4 hours straight, Daddy called at 6:30am to let me know that he made it to the academy and for us girls to have a good day. Natalie was wide awake, and ready for another feeding, so we got up and went into the living room, I made her a bottle and fed her. After her feeding we fell asleep until 10 am! For the rest of the day, Natalie would take very short naps but she would never really fall asleep. By 4 pm she was quite fussy and tired! Every time I try to move her to her bassinet, she would wake up. She finally fell asleep on the couch and slept for the next 3.5 hours. Tonight as we were getting ready for bed, she and I snuggled together on our bed. She usually doesn't go to sleep on her own, she likes to be held and then I will move her into her bassinet. It only took 1 hour and 45 minutes tonight. She is asleep and in her bassinet. I really enjoy snuggling with her in our bed, but I don't want to spoil her too much or she will never sleep in her own bed when she gets older. I love being a MOMMY! I will be going back to work on the 25th of March. It is going to be really really hard to have to leave her. I'm going to MISS her like crazy! I hope that the last 2 months of school with go by FAST so that I can be home with her again!

I still can't believe how much she looks like Erich as a baby and how gorgeous you have made this blog, Becky! The new picture on top is a tear-jerker and very sweet. Keep up the good work and being such great, attentive parents. It is a pleasure to watch you care for Natalie. It is also a pleasure to hold her--such a sweetheart!
Love to all three of you,
Mom
P.S. I still enjoy the music so much, Erich!
she looks so sleepy in these pictures! But so cute!
