Man it's been a while since I've been on here.  Sorry about that, I'll try and do better!
The most exciting thing that Nyssa has been doing is...sleeping through the night!  Can I get a woot wooooot!!  It happened by accident too, that's the best part!  On Wednesday August 26th I put her to with the night bottles waiting by the recliner.  She woke up at about 2:45, I was so tired I knew there was no way I could feed her and not fall asleep.  So I put the passie in her mouth and fell onto the futon in her room, because I figured I'd have to get up eventually.  Then she was up at 3, I still wasn't ready so I plugged her again.  Next thing I knew it was 7:30!  Our pediatrician had said to give her the passie instead of feeding her every time (which we have been doing since she was 6 weeks old) and eventually she will figure it out.  It's freaking AWESOME.  Nyssa still does better when she is swaddled.  I use the Miracle Blanket.  It rocks.  She still wakes up 1 maybe 2 times a night for us to plug her up again.  That is way better than doing a feeding that takes 30 minutes and then I have to fall back to sleep.  I love her.  I really do.  I like to squeeze her sometimes (then she gives me a half giggle because squeezing her by her armpits). 
We get the big kids tomorrow, so I'm sure I'll have some pictures to post.  Nyssa and I are heading downtown to babysit Piper.  I haven't seen her (or her Mom & Dad) since I left for maternity!  I'm so excited.  Although the drive makes me a little nervous. 
I better get the sleeping baby up and fed and dressed before we head out on our adventure!
