Sleep, Blessed Sleep

Mia got weighed today and she is now 14 pounds 11 ounces. She continues to eat her solids real well and I continue to put oil in everything...trying to give her as many calories as possible.

Now I kind of didn't want to write about the sleeping part yet because I don't know if it's a sure thing or not, but for the last THREE nights in a row (yes three...) Mia has slept through the night completely, no 1 am bottle feedings...we've put her down between 7 and 8 and she wakes up around 6. I know I asked y'all to pray about the night feedings and I feel like this is such an immediate answer to prayer. And we are so thankful, it has been so nice to not feed her. And we would love for God to grace us out and continue to let her sleep through the night, so that will be our prayer. As long as she keeps on eating well, I'd love for her to keep sleeping through the night!

Please also pray for her developmental milestones. We'd love to see her crawl soon and walk there after, so please pray specifically for those two things. We know that if it is God's will she'll be able to do those things, we just need to be patient and wait on His timing. Pray for patience on our parts...especially mine!
