My happy little sleeper

I am now convinced that Natalie is sleeping through the night.  While she hasn't slept through the night every night or the last couple of weeks, she has done it enough times that I am feeling good.  If she isn't asleep already when I put her in her crib, she is falling asleep quickly on her own, most of the time without fussing.  I no longer am waking up expecting her to wake up and so am definitely feeling more rested.

Lexi has picked up her cousin Sophia's habit of wanting to look at some books once she has gone to bed.  I don't know how long she does that but it must not be too long as she's never awake when we go up to check on her.  I am grateful that our big girl continues to be a good sleeper.

Natalie's two bottom teeth are both poking through and one is quite sharp. If she bites on your fingers, it really hurts.  I let Lexi brush her teeth for the first time tonight.  Natalie didn't really seem to like it  - there was quite a bit of crying.

We have now tried peas, carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes and beef.  Some she seems to like better than others but its kind of hard to tell as she happily keeps opening her mouth for whatever you feed her. Sometimes her facial expressions are kind of funny but she doesn't spit anything out.

Natalie also appears to be more cranky in the evenings lately and we can't quite figure out why.  She doesn't necessarily seem very interested some times in eating but she doesn't always want to sleep then either.
