Day, night...night, day. It seems that my newest bundle of joy has not yet figured out which is which. For the most part Elana is a quiet, serene baby. She can sleep in the noisy living room with no problem, is not bothered by lights and can even rest when her sisters try to attack her. Unfortunately for mommy she seems to do most of this sleeping when she's supposed to be awake. Ugh. As of right now Kevin and I are able to tag team her and get a little rest each...BUT he leaves on Sunday to go back to work and I have NO IDEA how I am going to handle things then. I get all shaky when I think about being up with Elana all night and then having to drag my butt out of bed at 6:00am when the girls get up. Heaven help me. Most of the time I pride myself on the amount of energy I have and what I can do with the three girls...but I am afraid that if tested with this particular situation I will fail miserably. I guess I will know soon enough!
On the plus side my little punkin' is eating like a champion. It has come to the point where I don't think breastfeeding is enough so my Dr. suggested that I supplement with formula. She will drink 3-4 oz at a time which for my girls is just CRAZY. Hopefully she will climb up the growth chart a bit though I am not going to hold my breath on that one.
