Mariele has found her thumb!

First of all, Mariele is NOT a paci baby. Believe me, I've tried several times. She just spits it right out. She finds no pleasure whatsoever in sucking on an artificial silicone nipple. But she has been sucking on her fists lately. And in the past week she has gone to fingers and even her thumb! I'm still working on getting the perfect thumb-sucking photo. I think she looks so cute when she is sucking her thumb. Here is the one pic I have so far, although I could not get Analese out of the pic. Oh well, I guess she is cute too:



Here is a cute one of Mariele sucking her fingers:



Analese requested a photo of herself sucking her lollipop. Pardon her messy hair. The photo was taken after her nap and she has a serious case of bed head:



Here are a couple cute ones of Analese and Mariele sharing Mariele's bouncy seat:




And lastly, Mariele has officially outgrown her swaddle me wraps. So now I am putting her to sleep in her sleep sacks. I just love the way both of my babies sleep with their arms up like that! Also I thought since Mariele is sucking her fingers/thumb, then she just might self soothe some during the night with that. Last night I did hear some sucking noises, but I was too sleepy to sit up and investigate.
