Sleep patterns

Natalie can go for 5.5 hours without eating. Sounds good right? Unfortunately, that is happening during the day (early morning) and not during the night time hours when I would like it too. I have been trying to get her out of that pattern this week by feeding her a little earlier than she is asking to eat during the evening. Not sure if that is really working though last night she did manage two 4 hour stretches of sleep before she needed to eat again. Who knows what going to the day care will do for her patterns? I hope she will take the bottle for them. We haven't tried again in over a week but the last 3 times we tried, she refused - except from me. She drank from the bottle when I held it. Go figure.

Natalie is also a very wet baby. She drools a lot and is constantly putting her hands in her mouth. Then she wants to grab your hand and you end up with a really gross hand! We have been putting bibs on her so she doesn't soak her clothes and the bibs end up drenched within hours it seems like.
