Kara had an exciting week. She got to see her first snow. Not enough to play in, but enough to see from inside the warm house. Kara continues to grow and become more aware of her surroundings. She's starting to play with and grab things, including the rings on her bouncy seat (which she completely ignored the first two months of life) and Daddy's nose - see the pictures. We're still working on establishing a sleep schedule. Before we had Kara, we never realized a baby could get over-tired. If you can catch her just right, she'll go down very easily, but if you don't, she will scream and scream (and she's got a good set of lungs on her) until she wears herself out (usually 10-15 minutes) and falls asleep. Kara will take 4-5 short naps during the day, and will sleep for a couple long stretches during the night (6-7 hours at a stretch). She once slept 10 hours straight (which got Mom and Dad very excited), but that seems to have been an anomaly. She followed that up with a rough night with only 3-4 hour stretches of sleep. We're still working on it. :)
Grandma H. came to visit with lots of new toys yesterday, so we'll surely have more pictures of those for next week. Until then, enjoy!
PS - Check out the video of Kara enjoying her tummy time.
