Sylvie is 3 months old!!!

Sylvie is 3 months old today! I still can't believe that a person can stay alive (and thrive!) for 3 months off of my boobs. A true miracle! How did we reward the little one? She slept for the first time last night in her own room in the crib! The night before, she slept from 11pm till 7am, so I thought it won't be so bad. But alas...she woke up every 2 hours either for a pacifier, a diaper change, a feeding, or any combination of the three. At one point, I vaguely remember trying to give her the outlet plug that was sitting on her changing table instead of her pacy. Not to mention her explosive poop that nearly catapulted her off of me during a feed which soiled her pj's and required a whole diaper-wipes bath and change in the wee hours. But, we did survive...and how did mommy get rewarded for keeping this little one alive for 3 whole months, you ask? Well...I had a dental hygienist appointment! I called and begged to reschedule as I was half zombified and had no one to watch Sylvie during my appointment. The nice receptionist promptly informed me that I will be charged for the cancellation and that she'd be happy to watch Sylvie for me. Hee hee...I could hear Sylvie crying all the way down the hall as I got my teeth cleaned. Poor lady didn't know what she was in for! Of course, Sylvie fell asleep as soon as my cleaning was over...so I figured I needed a good reward and went shopping! By the way...I was dreading the "do you floss?" question from the hygienist for which I was actually prepared to make a smart response ('funny you should ask - last night my husband made steak for dinner and I flossed some out of my teeth'), but instead, I got "Oh my god..what happened to your thumb?!". No smart response for that one!
