Eliza is such a ray of sunshine
A sleepy ray of sunshine
Our beautiful ray of sleeping sunshineI'm contemplating having Daniel bring Eliza's crib upstairs so he can set it up in our room. But, I am waffling. I love sleeping with her curled up next to me, her little body so secure next to mine. Nursing is a breeze as I can get her all into position and then fall back to sleep. I love seeing her face first thing in the morning, feeling her soft breath on my face, and hearing her sweet sleepy baby sounds. The only thing that makes me want to put her to sleep in her crib is knowing she will sleep better without the jostling of two other adult bodies in bed with her.
Oh.... there will be plenty of time for her to sleep in her beautiful (and free - a hilarious story for another day) crib. I think I will keep her right next to me awhile longer.

I knew it!
Mom
I would keep her as close to me as I could. Miller slept in his bassinet next to me until exceeding the weight limit....4 months old....he just out grew it...lol. Then I cried when he went to his room. He didnt know the difference...but I sure did....do whatever you want for as long as you want..your the mom.
she is such a beauty! don't you think she looks like Eve in that first picture?
i don't blame you for wanting her so near. three weeks already! the time just seems to fly at warp speed when they are so little! enjoy!
She's just beautiful! And it seems like she's grown so much in just 3 weeks! (at least through pictures)
I loved having my boys sleep with me too when they were babies- especially when I was nursing. (even though I know doctors put absolute fear into you now about co-sleeping (bad BAD Mommy!!)) I had a horrible time "letting them go" into their cribs at night.
Enjoy her! The crib will wait!
PS- Thank you for the advice about adding to our family. I wasn't looking at things in the perspective you described. Now that I have- I think you're right :)
I would too=)
Hope was 6 months old yesterday and I still can't bear the thought of putting her in the co-sleeper. Baby breath and baby sounds are the best.
Keep on snugglin'!
She is SO beautiful! I'd say keep on snuggling your little beauty. They're only newborns once. Ozzie still sleeps the last half of the night in our bed. I love waking up with him... he's so sweet in the morning.
have a great day!
She is soooo incredibly sweet!!! I miss my kids being that little! They grow so fast! Enjoy every moment!! xoxo
I never did have Abe sleep with me. He just never slept well like that, I had to have him out of our room at only a couple months old. I enjoy his cuddlyness now though when he wakes up early & I bring him in bed with me :)
I miss you guys, I need to hold that little girl :)
She is so beautiful Andrea!
She is so beautiful.
I had a co-sleeper right next to the bed for MONTHS, until Lex started sitting up at night. Now the crib is right by my bed, but there are days I wake up and he is next to me, breathing softly . . . it is so lovely!
She is gorgeous! I would keep her snuggled close, too.
Eliza is beautiful. I love pictures of yawning babies!
