Eighteen Weeks

Surrey is growing, growing, growing! She loves grabbing her feet and loves biting on her finger gun all the time. That's right, finger gun. She's not quite into just sucking on the thumb, and not quite into sucking on the thumb and finger close together. Strange, but true. Finally she is actively interested in toys - reaching for them, getting excited to hold them, suck on them, or knock them over! I was worried she wasn't going to develop this skill.
In response to my own post from last week, we've decided to swaddle her again for naps and bedtime and we think that's the ticket. At least for naps. Night is still pretty wretched, but she's been taking really good naps since being swaddled again (although she oftentimes muscles her way out).
This four month old is about to move onto solid foods for the first time. Oh boy!
