I will fill up your last days of maternity leave with all my comments. Ha!<br /><br />I had been wondering around the end of September if your niece had been born yet so it was great to see these pictures. Millie is so lucky to have a girl cousin on either side who is close to her in age.<br /><br />And after you win the lottery, you should totally buy those glasses because they look really good on you!Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16350800415772519653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549335122964279342.post-64977019775049419082014-10-14T21:55:57.925-04:002014-10-14T21:55:57.925-04:00Congrats on your niece!

A lot of people swaddle young babies because they tend to have a strong startle reflex (known as the 'moro reflex') that causes their arms and legs to flail out kind of like they are falling. This doesn't happen if they're laying on their stomachs, but since babies are now supposed to sleep on their backs, they tend to startle and wake themselves up with this random spastic flailing. Keeping them swaddled with their arms tight by their sides prevents this startle reflex and helps them stay calm and asleep (also, it feels more like the tightness they're used to in the womb). It works wonders for Millie, so we'll continue doing it until she's a bit older and grows out of that reflex (or starts rolling over- once she can roll, it isn't safe to keep her arms in the swaddle)!Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11909071293780469781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549335122964279342.post-62721586225139219762014-10-10T23:22:35.799-04:002014-10-10T23:22:35.799-04:00Excuse my ignorance since I am not a mother, why i...Excuse my ignorance since I am not a mother, why is it that babies are always wrapped so tight in a blanket?Ordinary Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07727415148008141015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549335122964279342.post-65151825831166266052014-10-10T22:09:14.541-04:002014-10-10T22:09:14.541-04:00Oh my!

I thought that, being a dentists, B would panic that we have two thumb suckers. Nope! Apparently you have to suck your thumb for 10 hours a day for 3 years or something like that for it to negatively impact your teeth! So enjoy her self soothing! She is precious!

I LOVED going to stroller strides on my maternity leave.<br />I just started "running" in April and I did my first 5K with my stroller. I am a huge fan of stroller running...there is SO much storage for keys, phones, layers, snacks... it is the best.Nikki Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16296590282513086359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549335122964279342.post-77613221850096811912014-10-10T13:36:50.411-04:002014-10-10T13:36:50.411-04:00Ok sucking her thumb was the BEST thing ever for S...Ok sucking her thumb was the BEST thing ever for Sofia - hello self soothing and sleeping all night at 9 weeks old!
