2 Months Old!


It's hard to believe another month has passed! As I sit here typing this, my beautiful 2 month old baby girl is in my arms fast asleep after having finished eating. And while that makes for slow, one-handed typing, it is a wonderful thing!

Baby girl, this is what I want us both to know and remember about the second month of your life.

Life in General
  • You are so alert when you are awake, looking around at everything, following people as they walk by, etc.
  • As I mentioned last month, you enjoy staring at the ceiling fan and that is still true. You stare at it all the time. I'm not sure whether you like that more or staring at your monitor while having your diaper changed. I think you like talking to your monitor more than anything else. Oftentimes, you are so content in your changing pad - kicking, cooing, staring at your monitor - that we hang out in there for a while after your diaper has been changed. After all, there's no sense in moving you while you are happy. Plus it has given me a chance to go through your drawers and pull out the clothes that no longer fit.
  • You have outgrown your newborn clothes and now wear 0-3 month clothing.
  • You sleep so well! At night, you sleep around 6 hours before waking up to eat. And a lot of times you sleep over 7 hours, which your momma appreciates. :) 
Firsts
  • trip to Salt Lake with Momma and Grandma Karla
  • fishin' trip with Daddy, Grandpa Bob, and Momma
  • dinner out at a sit down restaurant
  • bottle fed to you by Daddy
  • trip to grandparents' houses
  • trip to the driving range
