My baby is 2 months old!! Holy smokes!
After two months together, we have definitely established a routine. She is still an excellent eater and routinely takes a bottle from both her dad and the babysitter without a problem. She sleeps fairly well too, reverting to waking up every three hours over night about four times a week. But then there are the nights like last night when she finished a feeding at 10:30, fell asleep around 11:30, and slept until I had to wake her up at ten to six (I couldn't wait any longer, yowch!). Makes me wonder if she could be sleeping through the night if I could make it that long, so I'm hoping that my body catches on that more sleep is a possibility if it just chills out on the overnight milk production a little.
We have also started taking her out and about more, and as it turns out, she actually does better in public than she does at home. She is able to sleep in the Moby wrap very well, and it has enabled us to go to the grocery store and clothing shopping without incident. She also sleeps very well in her car seat when we go to restaurants (we've been twice so far, and both were perfect trips!) and is willing to be held by any one at parties. I know that this will change once she gets older and stranger danger kicks in, but for now I'm enjoying how wonderfully behaved she is.
She has officially grown out of newborn clothes and is completely in the 0-3 month size. For this reason she feels big to me, but then I get to hold Sandi's son, Ethan, who is 8 months now, and realize just how teeny she still is. No matter what size she gets to be though, I know that she will always be my sweet little one, as long as I can still snuggle her!
