Isis' Daily Schedule

For any other new moms out there, what kind of schedule are you following?? I have several friends who just had babies and I'm interested to see how feeding & sleeping is working for you! We've worked really hard to be consistent for Isis - not necessarily consistent times before this past week, but definitely a consistent pattern. Isis seems to thrive on this pattern and I definitely love knowing what to expect!! The only thing I don't like about this right now is that she's napping in her swing. I would like her to be napping in her crib ASAP, but I'm going to have to transition it. I think this week I'm going to see what happens when I put her swing in her bedroom. I might do that for a week or so, then I'll transition her to sleeping in the crib in her bedroom.

7:30am - Wake up & nurse
8:30/8:45am - Put in swing when she starts yawning
9:00am - Nap #1
11:00am - Wake up & nurse
12:00/12:15pm - Put in swing when she starts yawning
12:30pm - Nap #2
2:30pm - Wake up & nurse
3:30/3:45pm - Put in swing when she starts yawning
4:00pm - Nap #3 **This nap is the most inconsistent one. She'll fall asleep around this time, but she might wake up at 5:30 and she might have to be woken up at 6:15. It varies.**
6:15pm - Wake up (if isn't already awake) & nurse
7:00pm - Bath & bedtime routine
7:30pm - Bedtime
**If she wakes up twice in a night, it's usually around 12:30/1:00am and then 3:30/4:00am.
If she wakes up once in a night, it's usually around 3:00/3:30am.
What's interesting is that no matter which one of these happens, she wakes up at 7:30am. It's weird.

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)
