Starting the New Year right

Over Christmas Fiona had her 3 month photo session with Carlisle Photography. The proofs came back and there are some cute pics. Not as many as last time but several with ordering potential. Everyone survived the 3 Christmases. Fiona liked all the lights at Christmas Mass but was not a fan of the music because we were sitting closer to the speaker than normal. All of our travel plans over the break got canceled so we got a full 2 weeks of baby time which Emily was especially excited to have.

Emily has gone back to work full time :(. But, that means Fiona and Kevin get to spend Monday, Wednesday, and Friday together. Fiona will be attending Lexington Baptist Temple for daycare on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Tuesday was Fiona's first day at daycare. All went well (we guess) but when Emily went to pick Fiona up she could hear the baby cries at the entrance. Apparently, Fiona had just woken up and was pissed. The daycare lady was with another child when she woke so Fiona was just being picked up when Emily walked into the room. Turns out Fiona had a burp (this is very much a Fiona reaction to a burp) and was comforted as soon as the daycare lady picked her up from the crib. Emily was happy to see that she was comforted by the daycare staff. She was VERY sleepy when she got home and slept soundly all night.

Fiona has started eating 6 ounces a feeding from the bottle every 3-4 hours. She is also sleeping from about 8-9 pm to 6-7 am....but not really napping during the day. Hopefully this will even out once she gets a routine going but Emily is not complaining about the nighttime sleeping. The past few days, baby has started talking to herself in her crib. We are not sure if she is talking to her hand or her turtles but either way it is pretty darn CUTE!!!

We go to the doctor next Friday (Jan 14) for her 4 month checkup and then the baptism is on Saturday (Jan 15). Check back for an update sometime next weekend.
