Eden is 2 mo and Hadassah is 17 mo

Hadassah:

What a cute little girl she is becoming!! She is understands so much, it surprises me how much. If she is getting into things she's not suppose to, i can say "Haddie, go play with YOUR toys! And she will (well, some of the time)! We can also hand her something and say "take this to Daddy." and she will (again, some of the time, that is as long as she

doesn't think its something she wants to play with).

The funny thing lately has been, if she does something, and you laugh, she will do it over and over again hoping for the same reaction.

She loves to feed her self and also feed us. She is wanting to sit in the "big girl" high chair lately. she is so much fun, and growing so fast.

We have started her training to a big girl bed today. She has taken her morning nap there. She did well getting out only 4 times, then understanding that she must stay in her bed, she would stand, play, and bounce IN her bed. She didn't do much sleeping for the first nap. For the second nap we laid her down, and she didn't

get out not once! such a good girl! She also only played for a short while before being so exhausted from not having much of a morning nap she fell asleep. She is sleeping peacefully now while I type.

I can't believe she already old enough to go to a toddler bed, it doesn't seem possible. But we are needing her to be able to fully sleep in her toddler bed by 18 mo so that when Eden sleeps through the night we can move her into the crib.

My how time flies, I am trying to cherish every moment. This stage that Haddie is in is SOO much fun. She is such a character and loves to perform. I think she will be a sanguine, like her mommy!

Eden:

She is 2 mo today. It is wired, because it seems like she should be older, yet at the same time I can't believe she is already 2 mo.

She is a great baby, and although she may look like Hadassah, she is very different from her sister (as she should be). Eden loves her schedule, she eats and stays awake for an hour as happy as can be, but as soon as that hour is up, out comes the fuss. This lets me know she is ready for her 2 hour nap.

Eden is more reliant of her schedule then Haddie was. Where Haddie could sleep anywhere and could be off and on her schedule with NO problem. Eden hates to be off her schedule and we Just got her on one a month ago. If we are out and about and its her nap time, oh baby, she is not happy. She wants to be held or be in her own bed, if not she is very fussy.

Although, that means I have a fussy baby if I want to go anywhere, unless I am holding her, she is a happy baby at night.

Eden sleeps very well. She feeds at 8 and we put her down for the night, waking again at 4. Yes, that is 8 hours. She then goes right back to sleep after eating and waits until 8 to eat again. I have had great sleepers, Haddie was even better and was sleeping 12 hours at 3 mo. We shall see how Eden does in a month.

I can always count on a smile or 3 with some cooing after her 8 am feeding. She has such a pretty smile, and smiles with her whole face.

Eden also loves watching her sister. Haddie will sit by her and chat to her and Eden will just stare at her big sissy with such amusement. I love it!!!
