10/07 3eme semaine/ 3rd week

Florence progresse. C'est evident puisqu'elle passe maintenant plus de 2 hrs par jour sur le ventre et parce qu'elle arrive presque a se mettre a quatres pattes pour commencer a ramper.

Helas, cette semaine j'etais au boulot, encore que je suis reste sur la Cote Ouest du pays, et j'ai meme repasser une nuit a Phoenix, ce qui m'a permis de revoir la famille. Ensuite, sejour a Sacramento, la capitale de la Californie. Le centre ville est sympa, avec un quartier ancien de la fin des annees 1800, date de la ruee vers l'or, qui sera le premier developpement de la ville, puis une seconde fois, avec le chemin de fer qui partait de la, pour aller a New York.

My baby has a great tushy. Anyway, this week was sleep training, wherein I am attempting to train her to sleep in her crib for naps. Her naps have always been a bit all over the place, wherein at first she would only nap in her stroller, then her swing and then only on my lap. Now I am transitioning her to nap in her crib but it is a slow process for a big, lonely crib is not as inviting as Mommy's nap, all snuggled and warm, safe and loved. She is a very easy going girl but the flip side is that she does not switch gears quickly and, thus, training her to nap in the crib is a slow process. She sleeps terrific at night in the crib and has her entire life (go figure) but naps not so much. And so we work on it. Mostly it's an issue of just preferring to be snuggled as she sleeps. After all, who can blame her?

Mommy Out!
