Sage

Sage has been my little mover girl. When she was three months old she started to push with her legs and scoot backwards until she would ram her head into something and it would wake her up and make her cry. Instead of stopping when she hit something she would push harder with her legs and hurt her head and make herself more mad. It caused a problem for me that I've never faced before. I didn't know where to let her sleep. At 2 months old she started to sleep through the night most nights until she started this habit and then I couldn't get her to sleep at all. At the end of May she started to roll over every time I put her down. She would roll over and get so mad. : ) Last night she was crying on the floor while I made dinner and then she rolled over on her tummy and got so happy. She's getting a lot stronger on her stomach now so it doesn't make her so mad anymore.
She loves to sit in the bumbo on the kitchen table while we eat dinner and smile and laugh with us. She gets so happy that she starts to shake and can't contain her joy. : ) She makes me so happy!! Now she's starting to go through a phase where she will not sleep if she's by me. All she wants to do is eat if she can smell it. So Gilbert has bounced her to sleep a lot for me and that's been such a huge help for both Sage and I!
