| Happy Girl! |
Height: 24.25 inches
Weight: 13 lb
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Sleep: Mel is still a great sleeper, but doesn't like going to bed at night. Once she's down, she'll get anywhere from 3-6 hours in a row. She started kicking her covers off in the middle of the night and she would get cold. Then she would wake up. We started putting a sleep sack on her so hopefully that keeps her warm enough to stay asleep. She still sleeps a lot during the day, too. That's awesome for me so I can get things done/play with Reed while he's up.
Temperament: Melanie is such a responsive baby. She LOVES smiling and cooing (way different than Reed, he would just stare at you, so serious). But when she's upset she gets this wicked lip pout. It'll tear your heart right out! Seriously, she is such a sweetie.

Melanie loves:
-Eating
-Sleeping
-Being held by Mommy
-Reed's kisses
-Smiling
-"Talking"
-Riding in the car: puts her to sleep every time. At this age Reed would seriously scream in the car every time. They are so different!
Mel dislikes:
-Being burped
-Waiting to eat
-Right after feedings: getting better, but still not her favorite
-Evenings: does not like going to bed, she's a night owl like her Daddy

-Melanie met Uncle Jason and Ty for the first time: They live far, far away but we are so glad they could come for Christmas this year. We hope to see them much more frequently in the future.

-First airplane ride: we flew out to Midland for a day trip to look at houses and, naturally, Mel came along. Reed stayed with his B.B. and grandpa, which was much more fun for him.
Mel is just the sweetest, happiest baby. We are so thankful for her and her brother.
So what does Reed REALLY think of his little sister?
He LOVES her!
