Four Weeks

When we first put Dylan in the cradle swing it started off nice and gently and we thought, oh, how nice, it will slowly rock her to sleep. We looked over after a few minutes and it was violently rocking like one of those pirate ship rides at a carnival. It turned out she weighed too little so we had to pile on blankets and toys to weigh it down. When we put her in the swing now it heaves under the weight. I can put it on the second or third setting and it still goes more slowly than it did at first. We are guessing she'll be plumped up enough to eat by Thanksgiving if we're going for 12-15 pound turkey range.

She has been sleeping during the day a lot less this week. I hope she's not thinking of giving up napping at this tender young age. She also has been waking herself up with her pooping, which is pretty funny to watch.

She found Aaron riveting yesterday.

The claw is my master

Four weeks! Time flies and Dylan grows more enchanting (distence lends a certain aura at 2:30 AM) in every new picture and description. Be aware of the First Law of Childhood: As soon as you think you've figured it all out, everything changes. Second Law of Childhood: See First Law. Third Law of Childhood: The nap shifts as soon as you get used to the pattern. Fourth Law of Childhood: Whenever the nap is given up, it's too early. Love, C and G
