Sleeping...or not sleeping?

Natalie slept well ONE night...that's it! I'm really not liking this growing business because she used to sleep SO WELL every night. I thought for sure she finally got back into her routine Wednesday night, but no...come Thursday night :

...she fell asleep at 7:45p, woke up at 10p...ate and went back to sleep,
...woke up at 12a(midnight)...ate and went back to sleep,
...woke up at 2:30a...ate and went back to sleep,
...woke up at 5a....ate and went back to sleep,
...woke up at 8:30a...ate and stayed up to play

Then, she proceeded to take almost a 3 hour nap from about 9:45a to 11:30a.  What the heck?!

Last night, we had company over who also have a little girl (10.5 months old) so Natalie and her stayed up and played while us adults played a game and talked. Abbey (the mother of the baby) couldn't get over how "active" Natalie is and kept calling her the "Energizer Bunny," which I would have to agree with that nickname.  Well hey, maybe she'll get her Daddy's metabolism instead of her Mommy's...then she'll be in good shape. 

So, last night Natalie went to bed around 10:30/11p, then got up at 12/12:30a to eat. She went back to sleep easily, but then woke up AGAIN at 2:30 to eat. Bobby had to get up early Saturday morning, so it was Mommy duty, as Bobby mumbled in his sleep..."Can you go get her?" So, of course I did, but didn't realize that Bobby had also shut off the baby monitor in our room. Sooooo....come a little before 8a when Bobby had left and I awoke, I noticed the baby monitor was off...OOPS!  I guess that is one way to get her to sleep through the night...just don't have the baby monitor on :)  I got some good sleep too between 3am and 8am!

Currently, she is still sleeping peacefully and of course not anywhere near the position she fell asleep. She's not going to be able to sleep in this position much longer unless she's completely curled up.
