crib girl
eliana first goes on top of the blanket auntie hilary knit, then puts her green softie under her head, her yellow and pink softies at either cheek, her little body goes in her grobag, and finally, we place her personalized, navajo, pendelton on top to keep her warm through these long, winter nights.
she is tremendous, this little girl of mine. in just a few days, she trained herself into digging on her crib. now she loves it. she can lie in there, awake, and just sort of trip out on her fishies, or rub her little soft blankets, or space out on the pattern on her bumper pads, until she falls asleep. and now she takes these amazing, long, luxurious naps during the day. when she slept on me, when i walked, like a fool, for miles and miles to get my daughter to sleep, the minute the walk was over, she'd wake up. but now, in the stillness and white noise splendor of her own bed, she sleeps until she's done, calls the shots, does it all on her time. i am so impressed with her. she just wants to be the very best baby she can be. and she's surpassing expectation.
