CUTE

Nya is 7 weeks old today. I woke her up because she was having too long of a nap before bedtime and she was sooooo unusually sleepy. So, I called over my `assistant' and got a quick picture of her sleeping. The blanket and headband are supposed to be for when her eyes are open (I may have ordered them off etsy) but they look cute here too. I'll have to get some pictures of her smiling and giggling, it's pretty cute:)
PS Someone could make a lot of money as a `Bottle Whisperer'. Seriously. It takes about 45 minutes for her to take 2 ounces from a bottle that Gary gives her. Anyone know if there's an amazing bottle out there that makes it easier? We've been using the Born Free ones. Oh well, we're not giving up and will continue doing this every single day.

  4. Sorry re: Maria. That sucks being in hospital, especially with the other kids, and much of her support (sisters) also have their own families to worry about. Hope all gets well soon.

    No doubt on the bottle whisperer. Huge stress in our house at the mo. Will go cold turkey on the boob for a few days next week if we can't figure this out before then . Good luck!

  5. hmmm, for bottles, we occasionally used the Dr. Brown's Airflow bottles, which are supposedly the best (it was the breastfeeding specialist downtown Vancouver who told us about them). I have one if you want to borrow it to try. They sell them lots of places now.

  6. Charisa, thanks for the advice! She does take it from the Born Free ones, it just takes an hour. We have tried two other kinds but I think Dr. Brown's will be next if this one doesn't work!! Thanks for the offer of borrowing...not sure if you're ever in this area, otherwise, I'll just pick one up:)
