If it is possible, your father and I are even more proud of you this month than last month. You have developed mentally and physically just the way the doctor and we had hoped. Here are some new bits about our girl this month!
1. Your favorite hang out spot is the swing. Now that you're a little bigger, it fits like a glove.
2. This month you fell in love with classical music. The doctor says that you are a different baby with Mozart in the background (you used to cry:). *No more water or white noise.
3. You LOVE bath time and seem so relaxed while in the tub. Maybe next month we can bring toys in!
4. This month you started sleeping in the crib full time! (Thanks! Now Mom and Dad can share a bed again). We love watching you on the monitor - beats anything we can find on TV. You wake up around 5:30 and want to chill with Mom, Dad and Adam in our room. (You also wake up once in the middle of the night. Actually, Dr. Donohoe insists that we wake you after 5 hours to feed you, who knows if you would sleep through the night otherwise?! We're hoping this changes soon).
5. Your eyes can find me across the room!
6. You can sit on my lap without head support. You can even move your head around, moving it side to side and up and down.
7. Your (aka Mom's) favorite two outfits - the jean skirt and your pink tie-dyed onesie.
8. You LOVE looking at the mirror above the swing.
9. You are starting to enjoy the regular mirror, too.
10. Today was your two month doctor appointment. You weigh 9.7 lbs (in the 10th percentile) and are 22 inches long (25th percentile). The doctor says you couldn't be more on track or "perfect." (Duh.)
11. You take Zantac for acid reflux...it is the best thing ever!
12. I still pump all day long, providing mostly breast milk. Your appetite demands a supplementation of Similac for Gassy and Fussy Babies (not that you are, but, this is what you will take:).
13. You met Cousin Max, Uncle Michael and Aunt Meredith this month. You LOVED them.
14. You sneeze multiple times in a row like your parents, Grandma Sandy and Grandpa Bruce (Cleveland).
15. You just started to suck your fist - what's that all about, honey?
16. Dad feeds you during weekend night, Mommy during the week.
17. You stop crying when bounced.
18. You are big enough for your bumboo chair.
19. You eat 95-100 MLs 7-8 times daily.
20. You love the car still (I'm hoping you love it this Sunday when we go to Cleveland for the first time! I couldn't be more excited).
21. You stretch in your sleep and moan while you do it. Hilarious.
We love you so much. I am treasuring these first few months more than you know. I actually look forward to holding you in the middle of the night now...I figure I'll sleep some other year.
Mom
