2 Months

... a few days late.

Two months already...

This all goes by in a blink of an eye.

Emie is becoming such a smiley, happy, talkative little thing.

I absolutely love her little noises.

She has such a gentle little voice.

Compared to Leah I think Em will be a bit more reserved, quiet, calmer...

I was a bit surprised at her check up to find that her stats are pretty close to her big sis'.

Length: 24 inches
Weight: 12lb 14oz

She is slightly shorter than her sister at 2 months and slightly heavier.

Leah was 24.5 inches and 12lb 10oz.

And like her sister, exceptionally strong for her age....

I am pretty shocked by her weight.

She is over 4 lbs over her birth weight!

She is probably eating less than she did in her first month too since she rarely takes more than 2 oz at a time over night.

Which by the way... Emily's sleeping...

Right now she wakes sometime in the midnight hour and then around 4 am, where she might take 1-2 oz.

I didnt think this was too bad...

The Dr. thought she should only be waking up once a night, maybe, and I should leave out this feedings since she obviously is not really hungry.

Our problem is that if we do not time her feedings correctly her last "meal" might be at like 5:30 and she is already asleep once her next feeding might be.  

And eating at 5:30 is a bit too early for her to actually sleep through the night...

Em usually passes out and I put her in her bed around 7pm.

The Dr. suggested giving her a "dream" feeding... wake her up, give her as much as she will eat, before I head to bed.

Hopefully this will keep her from waking up at that midnight hour and hopefully only get up once a night instead.

At this time... Leah was sleeping through the night....

Well that is until she went to daycare and got infected by the germs.

Other points of interest...

Emily has this really annoying habit of always wanting to rub her head/face against something when shes tired....

As in if you are cradling her in your arms, she will be almost asleep and then turn her face into you and rub it back in forth, which knocks out her binkie, and pisses her off...

The Dr. thinks its her form of comfort...

I think she used to do it in utero too...

Remember how I said I used to feel her moving SUPER low and the ultrasound tech said it was just her head turning...

It has resulted in her beginning of rubbing her hair off her head in a complete ring, not just a spot in the back...

Her spot under chin has not gone away...

Nor grown.

We think it might just be a spot that as she gets bigger, it gets smaller, and no biggie.

And for comparison sake...

Time flies when you are having fun and in love! ;)
