24 Weeks

It has been a busy week!  Oma and Opa arrived from Switzerland and Carmen finally got to meet them.  It was lovely to see them again, and Carmen took to them very well.  We just wished they lived closer and could visit more often!

The weather was lovely (despite this being the coldest and rainiest summer ever!) and we made it for several beach walks.  Carmen is enthralled by the ocean - as long as she doesn't have to touch it, that is.

Carmie's sleep is still terrible, with two hours of insomnia each night.  However, for the last two nights her two hour wake-up has been from 8pm to 10pm.  Woo hoo!  And then she has slept through to 6:30am!  I'll take that any day!  Fingers crossed that this is here to stay.  She is also eating solids like a champ and has not refused a single food yet.  She opens her mouth like a happy goldfish, it is very cute.

Tonight Grandma and Grandaddy are taking care of her, so Jeffrey and I have the night off.  I wish I knew an icon for an insanely happy face, because I would insert it right here. 

Two videos of Carmen eating dinner:
