Growth Spurt Means No Sleep for Mom and Dad

We considered posting a photo of Matt and me today so you could see what two nights without sleep have done to us. Cecelia has been going through a growth spurt the past few days which is causing her to eat like a child twice her size while sleeping very little at night. Isn't it funny that no one tells you about episodes like this before you have children?

Despite our zombie-like state, we're finding more and more to love about CeCe as each day passes. There's the cute little noises she makes when she sleeps, making us wonder just what she's dreaming about (more milk, I'm sure); the smiles that are becoming more frequent; the great big yawn that Matt has been trying to capture on camera but always seems to miss; and the way she calms down when she hears our voices. I could go on and on . . .
