2 Months Old!

Bailey had her 2 month check up. Drum roll please....she weighs 12 lbs 14 ounces and is 22 inches long! She is in the 30% for height and 75% for weight. She is one healthy girl. The doctor was impressed with how well she holds her head up and by her alertness. Everything looks great! She also had to get 2 shots which was so sad to watch. She was all smiles right up until that needle went in and then let out the loudest saddest scream. So far Bailey is really a great baby. She isn’t ever fussy or irritable. She is very sweet and content most of the time. As long as she is fed I can pretty much do anything or go anywhere with her. I have even been able to start putting her in her swing and letting her play on her mat for longer periods of time. I think she is really noticing bright colors and her toys. She has this little butterfly that hangs above her play mat that she smiles and talks to every time I lay her under it. She also loves to watch the little birdies above her swing and loves to look at herself in the mirror. It is soooo cute! She now notices Coby as well. The other day she was smiling and laughing at him. I'm sure they will be buddies as she grows up. Bailey absolutely loves her bath time now. She splashes and smiles during the entire bath. If she is upset or crying I can turn on the bath and she calms down. She knows its almost bath time. The only thing that I'm having trouble with is that she still likes to eat about every 2 hours. She wakes up that much at night too. She doesn’t wake up crying, I can hear her moving around and she just sort of whimpers until I get her up to eat. As soon as she's done she goes right back to bed. So its not horrible but I'm not getting very long stretches of sleep so its making it hard to wake up in the mornings. My favorite time of day is the morning. She is so happy right when she wakes up. I love to take off her pjs and just watch her smile and stretch. I have been pretty lazy in the mornings and will just lie around and cuddle with her. I know I wont get to do that much when I'm back at work. The last 2 months with my baby girl has been so amazing. She just gets cuter every day.
