4: Great-grandparents who showered her with love
AND
Grandparents who spoiled her rotten
5: Nights Belle has slept 11 hours straight without a wake-up
7: Different states in which Belle has slept (New York, Texas, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Florida, Illinois); she napped while we drove through Rhode Island in January- so maybe this number should be 8?

10: Inches Belle has grown since birth
14: Different babysitters who have cared for Belle, NOT including family members
