The Second Month

I'd like to say the second month was easier than the first, but I'm not so sure about that. Maybe it's because her first 2 weeks she slept 4 hrs at a time at night and slept all day long. She'd go to bed at 7:30 or 8 and then wake up 3 times during the night to eat, finally waking up around 8 or 8:30am for the day. However, those awake periods during the day were so much fun. I'd trade all the sleep in the world for that.

There were more badger games:
