Okay, I think the sleeping thing may be solved...at least for now. I think Kayleigh is just starting to be more alert and that's why she's awake more. I was so used to her sleeping 2-2 1/2 hours after every feeding, that I kinda freaked when she wouldn't sleep at all between some. Now I just up the frequency of her evening feedings and she'll sleep a good 5-6 hours at night! Yea! I just wasn't looking for our routine to change, but I guess she did it for me. The past three days she has eaten and napped at almost the exact same time everyday! She still likes to be held till she falls asleep, but I can deal with that...I love holding her anyways!

I'm back at work for the next two weeks. It's not quite as hard as I was thinking it would be. I get feed her on my lunch break and the past two days someone has brought her up to work for her afternoon feeding. I am glad this isn't a permanent situation though....makes for a pretty hectic day. The good thing is her daddy is home for these two weeks and grandmas are available to babysit. Only seven more days after today!

I am glad that I was able to finally meet Kayleigh. She is a beautiful, sweet-natured baby!

Don't worry about holding her until she falls asleep. Enjoy this time because it doesn't last very long. When she gets to the toddler stage, she will be way too busy to be held.
