Two Months Old

I'm two months old today! I'm smiling more and more each day. Right now I don't let Mom have too many of my smiles though. I usually have a lot for Daddy and other people. Dad says it's because I see Mom the most. We'll go with that. :)

My eating habits haven't changed a whole lot. I usually eat 2-4 ounces depending on how I'm feeling. It keeps Mom and Dad guessing on how big they should make my bottle. But, that's kind of my personality...keep Mom and Dad guessing.

I am still sleeping on my tummy at night and that is still going well. I'm sleeping between 6-9 hours at night. If I wake at 6 hours I get changed, eat and go right back to sleep so Mom says that's not so bad. I did have that one 10 hour night I told you about. Those aren't the norm but now we know they can happen.

I'm wearing size 3 month clothing. Some of it is a little big on me but not so big it looks silly - some of it fits me quite well too. Mom says there are a  lot cuter clothes starting in the 3 month size so I guess you could say I've been stylin' lately.

I like to keep moving if we're in the car, stroller or shopping cart. I'm pretty content as long as we're moving. If we stop for too long I'm going to let Mom and Dad hear about it. Once we start moving again I'm generally happy again.

I've been enjoying more and more time on my own lately. Time laying under my play mat, on a blanket on the floor or in my bouncy seat. I still love my swing too. Sometimes when I'm on the floor I work really hard at rolling over. I still have figure out how to move that arm though, it stops me every time.

I am starting to watch Cohen more and more while he plays. He seems to be warming up to me more and more too. He even held me last week when Mom took pictures for our Christmas card. That was the first time he did it by himself and didn't freak out. I was comfortable with him holding me - it went well.

Last night he was sitting next to me on the floor and said, "She's running out of hair." I didn't take offense to it. To be fair my hair might be getting a little thinner but I do think I'm also growing some new hair. Mom and Dad said he was a very bald baby and as of now it looks like I'll have more hair than he did.

Mom weighed me last night with her. According to our scale I'm around 11 pounds. I go to the Dr. for my 2 month check up on Thursday where we'll be a more accurate weight and a length on me.

Today I was a little cranky. But it's my 2 month birthday - I can be cranky if I want to. I wanted to be held a lot but only certain ways and I changed my mind on how I wanted to be held quite often...again, I like to keep Mom and Dad guessing.

I had my first real babysitter this past weekend. Taylor G. watched me while Mom and Dad went to our neighborhood Christmas party and Cohen went next door to play with his friends, Parker and Andrea. I had fun with Taylor. She told Mom and Dad I'm sweet, I let her know when I wasn't happy but I'm sweet. :)

Well the first two months of my little life have been interesting. I feel like Mom, Dad and I understand each other a little more each day.

I'm looking forward to my first Christmas coming up and all other fun things the next month will bring for me.
