Lexi update

Lexi is a little monkey....as I'm sure most babies are at this age, however I cannot remember Megan being this high maintenance at 5 weeks old????...maybe it's just memory loss?...otherwise GOD help us!!!!!!!.

I cannot really complain about Lexi in the night as she currently feeds every 3 and a half hours at night, which is normal at this age & I feed her, change her then put her down & she go's straight to sleep (touch wood!!!!!). However in the day time it is a different story!!!!!!. For instance today think she has had about 1 and a half hours sleep in total!!!!!!!!!??????....the should be sleeping approx 18 hours at this age a day???????. In the day time the only way I can get & keep her asleep is by putting her in the blue sling (which features a few times in the pics). Today I vacumed, mopped, used an electric hand mixer (which is extremely loud), all with Lexi in the sling, she did not flinch once. It then got to lunch time, still in my P.J's decided to get a shower, so settled Lexi in her cot, but then 3 seconds later she was crying!!!!!. I watched her & she is soooo jumpy, at one point her own breating made her jump!?. Think she is a senstive little soul!.

Other than her sleeping in the day everything else is good, her in growing toe nail now is sorted, she is putting weight on, she is also getting a receeding hair line like her dad!!!!...she's not loosing her hair at the back (AKA Terry Nutkins) just at the front?

She has started to make little cooing noises & is very aware she watches your every move now. On a morning I let Megan feed her & when I place her in Megans arms to go & get a bottle, Lexi's eyes follow me as if to say "please don't leave me!!!". Megan still adores her, very helpful et,etc...but she is a bit much for Lexi sometimes especially when she gets within 1cm of her face. I think I must say "Megan, don't do this, that & the other" about 15 thousand times a day!!!!!. We had a particularly bad day yesterday with her & Megan said " Please stop her from crying mummy she is hurting my ears!!!". She is guzzling milk like nobodys business, so she may just be having a growth spurt & I'm not feeding her enough??????!..however thats all I feel like I do?. Anyway I'm sure Lexi will come good soon!!!!

We still all absolutely love her to bits!
