Sweet Dreams

Ellie sleeps in some silly positions.  Many babies her age, now that they can roll over, will sleep on their tummies with their bum in the air.  Not Ellie, she works herself into weird angles in her crib and takes up as much real estate as she can, even kicking a leg, or throwing an arm through the slats (maybe we ought to look into those mesh bumpers so she can't hurt herself).  To fall asleep she puts her right hand on the back of her head and rubs it gently, turns her head to the left and sucks on her bicep.  We can always tell she's ready to go down if she's rubbing her head or sucking on her arm.  Here are some silly sleeping shots of her:

Taking an early morning nap on the couch with me...

Waking up with one hand on the crib slats, angled in the corner of the crib

Look at Ellie and her bear (named "Ellie's Bear") sleeping in the same position!

Not one, but both feet sticking out of the crib slats!
