Night Feeding

With Jen going back to work, we have modified our schedule a little bit as far as who feeds Madison when. I have been picking Madison up from daycare so that she can be home a little longer than and so that we can make sure that she is eating sufficiently. Madison is starting to adjust back to being at daycare this week. Tuesdays and Thursdays are typically harder days because there are more kids there which means more noise and typically less individualized care. Madison is increasing the amount of formula that she is taking on a daily basis.

I typically feed around 5:00 before Jen gets home from work. When it's bath time I get to give her the bath and then Jen does the last feeding of the night so that she can spend a little time with Madison. It took a little bit of an adjustment for me to do the bath and get her ready for bed, but now that I am into a routine its not bad at all. Madison has been doing really great on sleeping through the night. She is in her crib by 8:30, if not before and a lot of times is still asleep when I go into feed her about 6:15 in the morning. Once she wakes up in the morning, it usually takes her less than 15 seconds to smile at me. If I am half asleep when I go in that usually wakes me up! She is definitely a morning person, which is great except on the weekend when we want to sleep in!

Here' a pic of Madison during her last feeding of the night. She enjoy's looking at Fanny(the ceiling fan in her room). She loves Fanny, especially when it's moving. She just smiles away. She typically stares at it when she is feeding and sometimes leaks formula everywhere because she is smiling. It's great! It's kind of hard to tell but Madison's hair is starting to grow more. Jen always wants to brush it because its always sticking up.
