It's still tough to give Holly the medicine, even with the apple juice, but were getting better. Last night it took 45 minutes and she was very resistant and crying the whole time, tonight it went much smoother, only took a few minutes, though she wasn't happy. I think it makes it tough because we have to give it to her between feedings, and she's not really hungry.
She's had a busy weekend, her granny is visiting and her great-grandmother as well (my grandmother). She's been very playful and well behaved. I don't think she's sleeping any more or less than usual but her sleep schedule is getting all jumbled up, partly because of all the activity with the visitors. She was very playful this morning, and yesterday we put her in the bouncer seat (it's too big for her but we put some heavy books under her feet so she can reach the "floor"). She likes that because she can be upright, but it supports her weight and her head somewhat, so she doesn't get tired. She played in there for almost a half hour before she wanted attention.
We've also been reading to her often, she really pays attention to the pictures and reaches out to grab the pages. But she will be still and focused while I'm reading the page, and then vocal and playful while I'm moving to the next page. She does get bored after about one and a half books (about 8-10 minutes) and we stop and do something else.
