This is a beautiful face to wake up to (but I would prefer to wait until at least 7am to see it).
Scoot over Jen, you've been replaced by coffee. I'm not really sure how I used to get through the day before. I would make the occasional trip to Starbucks for a Grande Soy Latte, but now I can't make it to 9:00 am without at least two (usually three) cups of Folgers. This all stems from Ellie's new sleep schedule the past week. I guess we got a little spoiled when she would go down at 8:30 and make it until 3:00 am without so much as a peep. For some reason she reverted back to waking up every 2-3 hours. Last night she went down by 8:45, up at 12:00, 2:00, 3:45, and so on. At 6 am she is ready to greet the day, ready or not. Knute and I have gone through a laundry list of possibilities for why the sudden change. We have the same bedtime routine every night: bath, bottle, story, rocking. I thought most three-month old babies sleep through the night (a five hour stretch). No? If this post makes no sense it is because I am functioning like a Zombie.

Rough! I always used the growth spurt excuse. She's growing so she needs to eat more and then doesn't sleep as much. True or not, at least it's some sort of reason. As my oldest sister says, it's all a season and will only last a short time! So...it's a growth spurt!
She looks so cute!! I don't understand baby sleep habits either. I am still such a rookie, you always give me such good info so when you figure this one out please please let me know. :)
Coffee could never replace me. I am really fun, I swear.
