Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Day 5

Things continue to go well!

Last night Ella spent the night at my parents house and we forgot to bring the pack-n-play so she slept in their bed with them. Apparently it went fine, they said she drank her milk with dinner and went to bed (much later than usual but that's ok) without any crying.

When I went to pick her up today she had just fallen outside and was all upset so my mom offered her a bottle to calm her down! When she told me this I almost had a fit-NO BOTTLES ALLOWED-but, my amazing child looked at it and threw it on the floor and wouldn't drink it! Way to stick with the plan Ella!!

She's napping right now and just like yesterday she didn't want any milk and she cried for a couple minutes but has been quiet for a while now. This is such a blessing...wow...who knew this could go this well? I'm not sure when I declare her completely "done" I'm still nervous about some freaking out happening. Hopefully not. Remind me of this when I'm going through some horrible stage with Ella and unable to remember any stage that went well.
