Routine

It seems like those days in the hospital haven't made a lot of difference as far as E's routine goes.  She's eating and sleeping about the same as before.  When I went to get her after her last nap, she had managed to turn 90 degrees and was lying across the crib.  Something new almost every day!

I wish I could remember more about my early days as a mother.  I'm sure I talked a lot to our girls and read to them, but I don't recall an emphasis on "tummy time."  So far I am enjoying the challenge of figuring out what e needs and how to soothe her.  We have conversations and play with her toys.  And of course we read and sing.  

Today I got out E's sewing machine and began to make the blocks for Dancing Nine-Patch, a baby quilt.  And I did my laundry (clothes and bedding).
