Sitting here thinking about the last five weeks, I cannot believe how fast they have gone. Though at week 3-4 I would have told you they were creeping by. Ella decided not to sleep for those weeks. But that is what makes week 5 so amazing! She is FINALLY sleeping.
knock on wood.
She is asleep right now, but since I am posting this, she will probably wake up and in defiance stay awake all day and night. Monday night she slept for six hours. Tuesday night she slept for three to four hour periods and last night (drum roll) she slept from 9:30 p.m. till 3a.m. and then ate for about 20 min, fell right asleep and then only woke up at 4 a.m. for a diaper change. Then she slept till 7 AM. Now, for all you who don't have kids yet, imagine sleeping for only about three hours a night for a month and then finally sleeping for six hours. Yeah. Awesome.
This is how she fell asleep last night. 
Despite it all, I LOVE being a mom.
And yes, she pretty much always sleeps in her car seat. Whatever flips her boat.
Oh and for some kicks, check this out. You just have to hand it to those old ladies, they are tough. :)

That is so great that she is sleeping so much better! Ambrey is getting there, but some nights she decides to be awake all night long...she prefers to sleep during the day...hopefully we'll get there soon!
what a pretty girl!
i'm glad she's sleeping better. i hope you can get some sleep, too.
btw - you're 5 weeks out, and i have 5 to go! it seems like such a long time . . .
Yay! I love sleep! I never took naps until I was a Mom. They were a necessity those first few months!
That video is hilarious! ha
Do you think she lives in Pasadena?
