This is unreal..
I walked in this morning at 7am to find my BABY girl on her back. She sleeps on her stomach. Which means, she ROLLED. At 5 3/4 weeks of age. Maddie and Faith did not do this until 3 1/2 months (Maddie), and 3 months (Faith). Abrie looked quite confused when I found her, and I must admit I stood there confused for a little while too. Of course, I stood there clapping like a maniac also. I don't understand how she did this. Then again, I can understand it because she's been flopping herself every which way since the day we brought her home from the hospital. I remember the first night we were here, Dan and I were equally worried when we would swaddle her and put her against the bumper to sleep on her side, and she would roll face first onto the mattress. The doctor even commented on this at her 4-day check-up! She is freakishly strong!
As excited and proud as I am of my little Breezy, I am also sad. How can she be doing these things so early?! She needs to slow it down, for MY sake! I don't want her to grow up on me!

The little woman seems to want to conform to her big sisters' schedule. She seems ready to go to sleep and call it a night already by 7-7:30pm just like Maddie and Faith. I am nervous though to have that be the last feeding of the night, as I'm not sure then what time it would prompt her to wake up for the first time in the middle of the night. So, for the time being, I'm still getting her between 8:30-9pm and feeding her as her 'last' feeding before bed. Last night she did wonderfully and woke up at 2:15am and then not again until I found her at 7am on her back!
