2 Months Old

Lovebug,

I can't believe you are 2 months old! It seems like just yesterday I was as big as a house, wishing away the minutes until I could finally meet you. Now I am wishing I could add more minutes to the day so I can spend them marveling over you. Funny how things change... I had no idea what you would bring to my life... that I would feel happier and more fulfilled than ever before... that the love I would feel for you would be indescribable.

You have come so far in the past 9 weeks of your life. In your 2nd month of life, you learned to smile, laugh, sit and hold your head up, and grasp onto things. The doctor comments on how strong and advanced you are, and says you will be rolling over and crawling before we know it! At your 2 month dr visit, you weighed 11 lbs, 7oz and 22.5 in. You are still wearing mostly 0-3 month clothing, and some 3-6 month clothing. You technically sleep through the night (9:30-4:30, eat, then go back down till 8). The dr says that because I exclusively breastfeed you, it may be awhile before you sleep a straight 9:30-7 stretch, but that is okay and I sort of look forward to spending those precious minutes with you in the middle of the night.

I have fallen more in love with your daddy as I witness what an amazing, loving father he is. He loves you so much and is incredible with you. You already have him wrapped around your tiny little finger. There is nothing like the bond between a daddy and his daughter. A strong, loving father is essential to a little girl.

I feel as if I never get enough pictures or videos, and worry that I am going to forget... forget what you look like at each stage of your life, forget each little quirk and expression... But I know you will only become more and more fun and interactive as time goes on, and that I will store away each special moment and memory in my mind.
