We went out for a family walk this past weekend - Daddy, Lillian, Suki and I (Picasso enjoyed having the house to himself again) - and Daddy tried out our baby sling. Since it was the first time he's really used it, we wanted to take a picture. The following is what we got. We can't help but be reminded of the photo outtakes sequence of Donkey from Shrek ...
Finally, on the nap front - we've added something new to our arsenal: blackout curtainsand a special 'Twilight' wraparound curtain rod. Since installing them Monday night, Lillian napped for two hours yesterday morning in her crib; this morning she wouldn't sleep at all but at present, is going on one full hour this afternoon (though I am starting to hear little sounds). This is progress. We already had a set of faux-wood blinds, but a lot of light still comes through those.
This is the 'after' picture, by the way. The curtains were advertised as "eliminating 99% of light". I'm not convinced they're living up to that quantification, but I think they're helping.
