The big thing that she's teaching me is to be flexible and more laid back. I threw "Babywise" out the window a long time ago, so I carry her around a ton, rock her to sleep and occasionally let her cry for short times when I'm about to pull my hair out. Her favorite way to fall asleep - nestled up close to me or in the car. When she's having a really bad "moment" or "day", we go run errands in the car or go for a walk. My conclusion (at this point at least) - some babies do better on my routine and others do better on their own :)

my complicated and beautiful baby

She's beautiful!!! Precious, precious, precious little girl. Love the pictures.
She is a beautiful little girl! And can so relate to everything you shared...ah, for our 2nd children...
She may not act like Abigail, but from what I can tell from the pictures she looks an awful lot like her! :)
Amen to changing the program. Babywise was good for David, bad for Judah. I still hold Judah for most of his afternoon nap every day. I'm enjoying the snuggle time and going with the flow.
