It was a big weekend for Lila! On Friday evening, she started laughing for real (chuckling, really)! She had just had a major blowout (so maybe she was feeling extra 'light on her feet') and was laying on the changing table. Doug was cleaning her up and I popped in next to him and something about looking at me was quite amusing, apparently. She just chuckled and chuckled! I have had limited success at getting her to do it again by being the Mommy Monster and "eating" her neck and belly. :o)~

She also slept in her own room all night last night for the first time! We put her to bed in there on Saturday evening as well, but I brought her back to our room after her early morning feeding. For my benefit more than hers - she seems to be perfectly happy in there! The only reason we hadn't made the transition sooner is because I wasn't ready. I like having her so close to me at night. I can look in at her any time I want (to make sure she's breathing, to see what funny position she is sleeping in, or just to admire her beauty) and it is convenient for those nighttime wake-ups. I must say though, it was nice being able to get ready for bed without having to tip-toe and whisper! She's getting to be a big girl! *sigh*
