I think when a woman becomes a mom, she automatically retains the right to brag on her baby! So forgive me as I embrace that right and use this post to brag on our little girl :o)
McKenna slept 10 hours through the night last night!!!!!!!! When fed her at her normal 10:00pm feeding and she did not wake up until 7:45am!!!!!! Of course my body still wakes up and is NOT sleeping 10 hours through the night...but hopefully I will follow McK's example and get it in gear!
McKenna had been doing such a good job of extending her sleeping from 6-7 hours one week and then 8 hours a couple of nights...and then BAM....10 hours last night! Yahoo! We are some happy parents...she's doing such a good job of growing :o)
We also took our first road trip with her and she did beautifully. We left after her first morning feeding on Wednesday to go to Atlanta. She slept in the car and woke up to eat when she was asked to :o) She did even better coming home on Thursday (yes it was a quick trip). She's such a trooper and we're so thankful for her sweetness and flexibility. Traveling was VERY different this time. We knew it would be but we didn't understand the difference fully! Pulling over every 3-3.5 hours to nurse (which takes a good 30-45 mins) really makes the 6 hour trip to Atlanta longer!!! It was worth the time though. We were able to see Dave's folks and his sister's new home in Georgia. They hadn't seen McK since she was just home from the hospital, so it was good to see her with them :o)
Anyhoo...we go to the doctor's this week for our 2 month appt and shots :o( Pray for us as we go...pray for the tears that will occur from both Mommy and McKenna I'm sure! I will post about our appt. and have some new 2 month, big girl pictures up soon!
