Our little girl is two months old. When she's happy she is really happy. When she is sad, she is very very sad! She has been a bit happier these last few weeks. We're not sure if it's the reflux medication that's helping or if she is just growing out of some of the fussiness. Either way, it is so nice to see her happy and content more and more everyday!
Miss Elsa is such a sweet little girl. She has such a great smile! She has recently started to coo and "talk" to us. Her little coos are so soft and quite. Although, at times she will let out a really loud squeal! She is becoming more interested in her surroundings. Recently, Elsa has started to enjoy being outside. That is very important in this family! Ha!
Elsa hasn't had her two month appointment yet, but I think she is around ten pounds. She is in 0-3 month clothing and I have started to pull out the three month stuff as well. Much to our amazement, Elsa in an incredible sleeper. Five to six hour stretches in her bassinet has become the norm. The other night, we had a record eight and a half hours! Crazy. During the day she takes a few short naps. Most of her naps are still while being held. We will enjoy the snuggles while they last!
We haven't attempted any big outings or trips at this point. Hopefully that will change soon as Elsa settles into life a bit more. It's funny, with Aaron we had already been on a few long trips by the time he was two months. Little Elsa has had a slower adjustment to life on the outside though. The car seat is still a very unhappy place. There are only a few places around the house that make her happy. She is coming around though. I think we may try a trip to Colorado Springs soon!
Milestones: Smiling, sleeping through he night (lets hope it lasts!) cooing, squealing, tracking objects, batting at toys, sucking on her hands.
Favorite things: Changing table, sleeping on one of us, her rocker and being outside.
