Crawling!!! and sleep update

While we were in Tresillian, Kaitlyn got a lot of floor time, playing on a mat. During our stay, she started crawling, first in circles (always anti-clockwise, we think she's left-handed), then started sticking her bottom into the air and inching forward a little. Awww, our little girl is crawling... She's also standing holding onto people and furniture quite often now.

We stayed in Tresillian for almost a week. The first couple of days were very tough, for both Kaitlyn and mummy. Kaitlyn cried for almost 2 hours before she finally fell asleep that night and mummy was a total wreck. But our little missey was a quick study, from the second night onward, she barely cried for more than 10 minutes. And she actually slept through the night one time! We were going to stay for 2 extra days, but mummy cannot stand all the crying from all the babies at that place anymore, so we packed up and came home.

The first night home, Kaitlyn amazed everyone by going to sleep at 8pm, on her own, without any crying, then only waking up at 5am for a feed! The second day was also a good day. But today, for some reason, she's a lot more unsettled. I have a feeling it's too warm upstairs. We will definitely be needing air conditioning. She definitely prefer cold to heat...

So, here we go, hopefully onto more rested day and nights for the whole family.

Oh and a couple of unexpected good outcomes from our Tresillian stay, Kaitlyn is a lot less high-strung now. She used to be very easily startled... but having lived with 10 other babies/toddlers who makes lots of sudden noises, she's a lot more used to loud sudden sounds and now don't even look when we accidently drop things at home. And we found out that Kaitlyn loves other kids' company. She was always so curious about them, and imitating them. I think I should think about taking her to playgroups soon.
