Brooklyn Wants It Now!!

There is one thing that Brooklyn has definitely inherited from her parents. One thing that isn't exactly the best thing either. She has absolutely NO patience. None. At all. What-so-ever. This is especially apparent when it is time for her to eat. She will be perfectly fine or asleep one moment, and then next awake and ready to eat, immediately! Now if she is breast feeding, it's not that big of a deal. Her meal is ready for her in seconds. If she is eating from the bottle though... oh boy, it's a whole different story.

More often than not, she doesn't give you any warning that she is ready to eat, unless you are aware of her eating schedule, which she doesn't always like to follow. When her grandparents watch her, they have to feed her milk from a bottle. I think this can usually be handled by one person, but not in Brooklyn's case. It becomes a two person job. One person has to warm the bottle up, because obviously the milk has to stay cold. This process can take a while. Then once it's warm, if it's too warm, you have to cool it down. In the mean time, the other has to take care of Brooklyn and try to calm her down. Well, this whole process just isn't fast enough for Brooklyn. When she wants food, she wants it right then. No exceptions. She will cry and fuss until she gets her way too.

I am hoping that as she gets older she will learn to grow out of her impatient attitude and mellow out. Though I am thinking, if she is anything like her daddy or myself, we will have no such luck!

Love,
