Going backward.....

This week we seem to be going backward as it relates to Camille's sleeping habits. Up until now she has been sleeping from 8pm-6am consistently each night. Well, she recently started teething and we seem to be back to the infant days of waking up every 3-4 hours! It is so pitiful to think about the pain those tiny little teeth breaking through the gums can cause. As Camille is still a very well behaved baby, the fussiness has increased along with the lack of sleep :( She does stay content as long as she is chewing on something, but that is next to impossible when she is trying to sleep! Her normal giggles and coo-ing in the morning have turned into high pitched screeching- talk about your own personal alarm clock! It is a little overwhelming to think of all the teeth that have yet to occupy that mouth of hers! How long must we go through this?

As most of you know, all the Tylenol and Motrin products have been recalled, so we have purchased the Target brand tylenol to use for her pain. It definitely does the trick, but only for 4ish hours at a time and we don't give it to her during the day. Thank goodness for daycare! Ha!

I feel I haven't posted in awhile, as we have some other "new" news in the world of Camille. Not only was she a champ at eating her rice cereal, but she is even better now that we have introduced the mixed fruit rice cereal! She is up to 2 feedings a day of it and she chows down- never leaving one drop in her bowl. We have also been giving her a "splash" of pear juice in some of her bottles which she loves. We are a week into it and she seems to be doing great, so more food will be introduced soon! Mrs. Ruth at school even commented what a good eater Camille was- and quite neat- not leaving to much on her bib :) That is mommy's girl for sure!

I have some cute new pictures to post soon!
