Living Up To Its Reputation

The dreaded 6 week mark!  Amelia has been having her roughest week yet.  Yesterday, she was up from 8:30 in the morning until 9:00 at night.  Same thing Tuesday, and today hasn't been too much better.  The minute we are able to get her to sleep and put her down, she wakes up immediately.  Nothing makes this little lady happy, and by nothing, I mean NOTHING.  She hates the following:  swing, vibrating chair, laying on her back, stroller, baby bjorn, going for walks, riding in the car, her carseat, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.  Bouncing on the exercise ball helps at times and so does laying her on her tummy.  We are working on getting her to sleep in the crib, but she's up every hour to hour and a half.  The only way she sleeps for longer than a couple hours is if she is sleeping ON me!  I really hope that after a couple weeks of this endless crying and no sleeping, things start turning around.  Any guesses on how long it is taking me to post this???

We had a nice Labor Day weekend.  Lauren and Bill had everyone over for fajitas and fun, so it was good to see my girlfriends! 


Here are some pics from the last week.

I think she's really starting to look like me!

The face we see too often........

Can't leave Freddie out!

Mel and Amelia - thanks for blankie and outift!

Labor Day fun!

Lauren's daughter, Edie, looking out of the window.  She is so cute.

Edie again, I think she looks just like Lauren.

Lauren's oldest daughter, Eva, trying to fit into Amelia's car seat!
