How Mom's Feeling: Pretty great, actually. After Lorelei's 4 month doctor's appointment, we decided to transition her to the crib. I kept telling myself, well, let's wait until she's 3 months and I go back to work. Then it was: let's wait until she's 4 months. Then: wait until she sleeps through the night. And then: let's see how she does after her 4 month Dr. appointment and see how she does. Well, we've hit all those milestones now and we transitioned her to the crib. So far, so good!  She's gone down pretty easily every night. The first few nights, she woke up 2 or 3 times, but now she is sleeping through the night again! We've had a few adventures with the baby monitor: make sure it's plugged in, has good batteries, etc. But overall, my monkey is doing great!


We went swimming on Wednesday. She was unsure at first and definitely did not like the cooler water on her head. In the end though, she was having a fun time, especially watching the "big kids" in the mommy and me swim class. We'll definitely be enrolling in that when she is older!


This weekend we had a great trip up to San Francisco to have brunch with Bonnie and Jessica. Lorelei was a champ, but of course had to eat in the middle of our meal! It's not as bad as I thought to have a fussy baby in a restaurant. Usually, it's so noisy that no one really notices!
