Hi All,
Thanks so much for the sleeping advice and support. I'm happy to say that things got a bit better. I started putting her on more of a schedule during the day and am feeding her every 3 hours, even if I have to wake her up. What do you know, it's worked wonders for the night time feedings. She's been able to get her long stretch of sleep in the evening instead of the afternoon - translation, I'm sleeping more too! She is also better about going right to sleep after her night time feedings instead of being up for an hour afterwards wanting to play. Of course, this has only been going on for the past 3 nights, so ANYTHING can happen. Keep your fingers crossed!
In other news, my parents came up and stayed with us for a few days. It was Aaron's first week back to work and I just couldn't bear the thought of doing 13 hour days alone! Gracie LOVED having grandma and grandpa up here. She soaked up all of the attention and loved being played with, cuddled and doted on 24/7. My parents just ate her up too. Here are a few pictures of proud grandma and grandpa.
I also couldn't resist adding the cutest pictures of Gracie to date. I took these this afternoon when she was waking up from her nap. Her little smile is just so cute! Never mind that she was screaming her head off about 15 minutes later :-)

Too precious! She is so beautiful!
You have to capture those smiles when they happen. In 18 years you won't remember the screaming that ensued afterward! You'll just remember that precious smile. Which is exactly how God intended it.
Congrats on the extra sleep. Isn't it amazing what even 30 minutes can do?
Give that adorable baby a hug for me.
Love ya!
man she's cute! And I can really see both of you in her!
