5/08/2003 Kylie loves it when we sing "Amazing Grace" to her. She will smile, wave her arms, and soon drift off to sleep. I have been using that trick lately when she gets sleepy around 10:00 in the morning. I hold her in my arms and take her for a walk around the garden. She starts to get sleepy and rubs her face against me and makes mewing noises. Then I sing, and she is out. Of course, if you put her into her chair or on her little baby mattress too soon, she will wake up and pout, so you have to wait a full 5 minutes after she goes to sleep to set her down. But it is so much fun to hold her, I don't want to do it!
