Ahhhh Sleep....

Yogurt tends to make a mess, but she seems to like it :)

Sleep training is going well much to our delight. Madelyn will sleep for 10-11 hours at a time now and will go to sleep with little coaxing. And perhaps most importantly she can put herself back sleep when she wakes up. Neither Karin or I have slept for 8 hours straight for about the past year, so we are elated and crossing our fingers that this behavior will stick.

Madelyn has been very quick to giggle this week. Peek-a-boo, watching the cats or an unexpected sound from Mom and Dad put her into all sorts of giggles. She will crawl over to you and hoist herself up on your pants leg when she wants to be held. Sometimes you can get her to walk for a few steps when she does this as well. She's also discovered how to splash herself silly in the bath tub, its amazing how much water a 9 month old can toss around when she really wants to.
