Day 8

I picked Emma up around 4:45 from daycare and she had just fallen asleep at 4:30. When this happens, she refuses to fall back asleep for her evening nap! Tried everything - didn't happen. Dan came home from practice, tried everything - still didn't happen. Since we had a very fussy baby, we decided not to even bother trying to give her solids tonight. She finally fell asleep around 8:30 (had been awake since 1:30 other than that 15 minute nap) but woke up as soon as we put her in the crib, so she's in the swing snoozing away for now. I figure we'll relax and watch some tv til 11 and then I'll take her up, try to nurse, and put her in the crib. This routine worked wonders when she was going through the colicky phase, so hopefully it will still have some magic left. :)
