still my little burrito


Not too long ago, I was reading some of the handouts we got at the hospital back when Leah was born. I noticed on one of the instruction sheets, it said to swaddle your newborn for about 10 days, to help them feel more secure. I must say that we still swaddle Liahona at 7 months. She likes it (?), I think. I think it's something of a sleep signal for her. When she's swaddled, she knows to go to sleep. I've even tried putting her down without wrapping her up; it became quite a fight for sleep.

Anyway, I snapped this photo a couple of weeks ago. I laid Leah down on the floor to play on this blanket. Before I knew it, she had wrapped herself up like a little burrito. If that's not proof that she loves being swaddled...
