Genni slept till 4:30 this morning! 6 hours of sleep in a row again! Sorry, but that is very exciting for me:). My theory is that after the first dramatic change in milk intake she slept well because of the dramatic change, and now that it's working itself out of her body we'll have more gradual results. This is totally non-scientific and could be totally wrong - but what's the harm in positive thinking?
Also - I turned to Eric last night and said, is it me or is Genni using much longer sentences? Last night in the car and when we were talking about her day, instead of the "good" and other one word answers we actually carried on some conversations in which I asked, she answered with a story, I commented, and then she responded to my comment. I mean I saw her all day Monday, it's only been a few days since I spent a lot of concentrated time with her, but I can't believe the improvement. Sometimes I wonder - is it because I wasn't paying attention and I just noticed? or do they really just all of a sudden change so dramatically? This being my first child I have no idea - but it's quite exciting nonetheless. She's also so happy and perky sometimes that she just makes me laugh - you know how in church they talk about being like children - well I can see what childlike excitment is when I'm with my daughter, she seems to have no limit. That is when she's not throwing a temper-tantrum:).
It's Friday - the whole evening with my family!

Language improvements do happen overnight - it's called a language explosion. Remember when Graham went from only a few spoken words to almost full sentences in thes span of about a week? That was a mega huge language explosion. :-)
Oh yeah - and Mike and I were just talking last night about Genni's speech. He's having a much easier time understanding her, so we were trying to figure out if we're just used to it or if it's becoming clearer. We don't know, but we both mentioned that the sentences she strings together are really impressive for her age. :-) Such a big girl!
