she is doing good. she is sleeping in her crib now. we just have to make sure she is swaddled really really tight.  i have given up on swaddling with blankets and just use the sleep sack exclusively.  that seems to be working!! she sleeps in there during the night and we put her in the crib for naps. sometimes she ends up in the rock & play out of necessity but for the most part she is in the crib, which i think is what matters most.

she is also sooo gassy. it doesn't seem to bother her most of the time. if it's really bad, we use the little remedies gas drops.  i use the dr brown's bottles and we burp her frequently during feedings. she seems to eat really fast though - and i am wondering if that has something to do with the gas. i'm not sure how to remedy that, though.... it's funny  -- she totally freaks out if you pull the bottle away during the feeding. i take it away sometimes to wipe her mouth and she gets all frantic.   so we'll see. the pediatrician didn't seem to be worried about her gassiness - said it's normal. i am just glad it's not the formula. the kirkland is cheap - i would hate to go back to shelling out the $$ for similac.
