The past few nights/days have been completely messed up for Katie. Her feedings and naps and going to bed, all of it. Yesterday was no exception. She took a 4 hour nap in the afternoon and completely skipped one of her meals. I hated to wake her at 6pm, but I just couldn't bear to let her sleep and the possibility of her not sleeping through the night. I am not sure if it was the heat (95) or if it was the fact we put her to nap in her Pack n' Play for the first time since she was a month old. Anyways. I got her up, fed her and she was so happy. After we got back in the house from gabbing with the neighbors at a bit after 9pm, I took her up, gave her a shower, Put on her onsie and took her down stairs for a bottle. I normally don't give her a bottle to sleep, but she had missed a meal and with it so hot I didn't want her to be without the fluids. She rubbed her eyes a ton, which I thought was so cute! She is just amazing. She fell asleep and off to bed. It was great. I just love these moments with her. Maybe tonight I will do the same thing. We will see.

She is also skootching now clear across the room. I call it crawling because that is what it looks like to me. I just adore watching her learn all of these new things!
