Our Little Copycat

The other night, Jason was sticking his tongue out at she Charlotte and blowing. She thought it was hilarious. A little while later, I was giving her a bath, and I noticed she kept sticking her tongue out. I was like "what is she doing?" Then it hit me. She was trying to imitate her daddy (uh-oh)! I called Jason over so he could show her how to do it. Sure enough, as soon as he would do it, you could see her think about it for a second, and then she would try it. She doesn't quite have the blowing part down, but she tries. I know this is only the beginning on her "learning" things from us! So I guess we better be careful what we do around her from now on - don't want her picking up any bad habits!

Also - last night on a whim, I decided to try to break the swaddle again. When Charlie got tired, I put her in a sleep sack. It's kind of like a blanket with arm holes. So I put her down in her crib around 8:15. Around 10:15, she fussed for a little bit, but she went back to sleep. I think I heard her one more time around 4am, but again it was for a minute or so and then straight back to sleep. I never had to pick her up. And she slept until 7am! I was so thrilled. I was sure I was going to be swaddling her last night around midnight, but it wasn't needed. I'm hoping this is a new trend for us.

Other than that, Charlotte is just growing like a weed. I can't believe how much she has grown. It seems like every few days she is doing something new!!
