Happy Birthday, Baby Jesus!

Cordelia has now celebrated her first Christmas. Not that she was any the wiser. . .

We went down to Santa Claus, IN to spend the holiday with my family. Cordelia did well amongst many new people, unfamiliar surroundings, and lots of holiday hullabaloo.

She holds her head up well now and even rolled over for the first time while we were visiting. Her Aunt Heather and I witnessed the milestone: from tummy to back. Dominic was sleeping on the floor nearby and missed it, so we put her on her tummy again, and she did a repeat performance. Of course, she has not done it again since.

We're also doing much better with sleeping. Since mid-December, she has been sleeping for about an 8-hour stretch each night, which translates into one middle of the night feeding, and again in the early morning. It's really nice! She did not do as well while we were staying at my parents' place, but that was to be expected. Now, we're back home and neither Dominic or I have to work until January 3, so we're enjoying our time together as a family.
