She doesn't miss many meals

That's what one of our friends said when he was over, and it cracked me up. "She doesn't miss many meals, does she mom?" And no, she doesn't. She loves to eat, and now that she is eating baby cereal, she's turned into a real animal! She gets so excited, opens her mouth wide, and even makes uncoordinated attempts to grab the spoon. She eats fast too, and would eat a whole bowl full if i let her!

One great advantage to her new meal plan - she loves to sleep. Yesterday she went down for a "nap" at 4pm, and didn't wake up until 6:30 the next morning!! Minus a short midnight feeding that mommy needed :) We've also spent a lot of time outside lately, going on walks or playing in the backyard, and I think that tires her out too.

Whatever the cause, Scarlett's been a fun baby lately. She's noisy, active, hungry, and sleeps when she wears herself out :)

Wow! That "nap" was crazy! I wish cereal made my baby sleep longer - it did nothing over here. He never seems to be tired. We're doing alright, but he can crash for two minutes and be good to go for another hour or two. But I too am enjoying this stage - they are so silly and crazy at this stage.
