Happy 2 month birthday Sara! We have settled into life as a family of 5 pretty easily due to the fact that Sara is such a sweet and mild tempered baby. Despite the fact that her brothers are constantly touching, pulling, squeezing and yelling in her ear, she takes it all in stride and doesn't even blink an eye as she is getting man handled by the boys. Instead, she gives them a big smile and loves to intently watch their faces (or what she can see of them as they are usually nose to nose with her). I have to say I really enjoy having a girl and feel fortunate to have my two boys and then my little girl to round out the mix. Sara has grown a lot this month and here are some of the highlights...
- At 2 months, Sara weighs 11 lbs 7 oz and is in the 52nd percentile. She is 23.5 inches long which is 84th percentile and her head is 15.75 inches which is 89th percentile.
- She has been more and more awake as the month went by and is starting to get into a routine of a morning and afternoon nap. Fortuatnely, she is still a great sleeper both during the day and at night. She only wakes up once in the middle of the night and usually does a 5-6 hour stretch. Up until just recently she was still sleeping in our room, but we moved her to her crib and for the most part does pretty well.
- Sara loves to smile especially when she is getting her diaper changed and she can look up at us. Big toothless baby smiles are the best!!
- Cooing and giggling is also a favorite of Sara's and she loves to have little conversations with us.
- So far Sara's eyes are still blue! I'm hoping they stay blue but I just looked back at Jack's 2 month post and he still had blue eyes at this age. His eyes are brown now. But I'm holding out hope we will have one blue eyed child.
Here are some pictures of Sara over the past month.....
My walking partner. Makes the walk a lot more enjoyable to look down at this little smile.
