Leprechauns, Chicken Pox, Cereal, and Milk

Leprechauns

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!! I played a leprechaun in Nancy's class today. I did it last year too and it is sooooo much fun. I hide a pot of gold, mess with leprechaun traps, and sprinkle glitter everywhere! The kids love it and get even more excited when they find other little things the "leprechaun" did days later. I made coconut cupcakes for the teachers today and they were very yummy!!!!

Chicken Pox

Yesterday Caitlin was exposed to chicken pox. It may take up to two weeks for her to develop symptoms, but thankfully, I don't think she came in direct contact with the girl....so I think we're should be okay.

Cereal

What a big girl! Last night we gave Caitlin cereal for the first time!....and she didn't hate it! Since she hasn't been taking a bottle at daycare the doc said we probably should start her on cereal early so that she at least eats something during the day. So last night we decided to give it a try. We'll probably give her a little bit every night and then if she's still not taking the bottle after her doctor appointment on April 2, we'll switch her to cereal while she's at daycare.

Milk

She drank an incredible 2 ounces today!!!! Here's hoping for tomorrow!

Crib update:

Last night went much better than the night before for everyone. I only had to get up with her 3 or 4 times rather than every hour or two. She did sleep with us at one point only because her little hands were so cold. We keep the house pretty warm and even turned it up a degree since we moved her to her crib, but her little hands get so cold during the night. I'm not sure how to remedy that yet.
