Charlie is 8 weeks

We are doing GREAT! She is as cute and stubborn as ever. She is sleeping good almost every night....waking up twice a night. When she does not want to go to sleep though...it is the end of the world. She will scream until she gives up and falls asleep ... which usually takes at least an hour. Just today she was awake from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Can you believe she can stay awake that long. At about noon she maxed out and cried and cried until she finally fell asleep. I just tested out milk again to see how she would react and it seemed to be ok. I think she was just trying to get used to daycare. Or, it might have been the amount of milk I was drinking. That was pretty much all I was drinking. So anyway she is not lactose intolerant...I don't think!
She is a happy girl (most of the time) She is cooing but still no giggles. I just waiting and waiting for them. She has the biggest smiles. She seems to always smile when I sing her "twinkle twinkle little star". And if she is fussy all I have to do is give her a bath and it calms her down. She is kind of becoming a mommies girl. Sleepy in this pic. She is getting better at daycare with me not being able to be with her all the time but after the long weekend I have with her she usually has a rough day on Tuesdays. She really like one of the little girls at daycare! She sings to her and Charlette smiles and coos at her. If she is tired or crabby she usually won't let anyone but me or Joe to hold her without a fuss.

Tummy time. She is getting soooo strong! She is now rolling over from her belly to her back. I was not sure if she does it on purpose or if she just falls over and lands on her back. I am pretty sure she would get stuck on her side if it was just her falling over so I think she does it on purpose! If she is not in the mood to use her neck muscles and I put her on her belly she will cry and cry until I move her. She knows what she wants... that is for sure.

This is an outfit her daddy picked out for her! She was not too happy in this pic but I thought she looked too cute to not take a pic!

She is doing well. We are still looking for a Halloween costume...don't know? There will be another update after her doctor appointment on Monday. I can't wait to find out how much she has grown!
