Emma's 2 Month Stats

Happy, smiley, long legged girl!

Emma's daddy is so funny!

Weight: 11 lbs and 8 ounces (70th%)

Length: 24 inches (95th%) She is SOOOOO long!

Hair: sparse and dark

Eyes: dark blue

Eating: she is still breastfed every 3 hours throughout the day starting at 7 a.m. until 10 p.m. She has made it 9 whole hours overnight in between feedings! Yay for me! She still takes a 3.5 oz pumped bottle every other day. She is an excellent eater and her weight and length reflect it! I am sure her thighs will soon. Her spitting up seems to be a little less now that she is on Zantac for reflux. I can't wait to start solids with her next month!

Sleeping: She usually falls asleep between 8 and 9 p.m. I still wake her at 10 p.m. to nurse her and swaddle her. I am pretty sure the swaddling days are almost over. She is almost too long for the swaddles and she usually breaks out of them by morning. I lay her down awake after she eats at 10 and she puts herself to sleep, usually without a paci! She usually wakes up between 5-6 a.m. and I will feed her. In a few weeks I won't anymore, she will have to wait until 7 a.m. She has proven that she can go 8-9 hours already. Just like Baby Wise said she would! If she continues on this awesome path of great sleep she will be sleeping 8-10 hours every night when I go back to work. Emma sleeps in her own room all night! The co-sleeper is put away. She is awake more during the day and gets at least 2 long naps a day, usually 3. She is still young enough that we can take her into a restaurant and she will sleep in her car seat while we eat. Those days are numbered and we are enjoying them!

Size: some 0-3 month tops, 3 month pants (for length, the waist is always too big), size 1 diapers

Likes: her sister, baths, lotion application, pacifier, her mobiles, being held belly to belly while being patted, being upright, swinging

Newest Accomplishment: smiling, batting and kicking at her mobile on her exercise mat, sleeping 8 hours on average at night

What a little punkin!

Such a happy baby in the morning!

Serious face

Relaxin' outside with Daddy

She is sooooo long! She is longer than Ryan was at 3 months!

The nurse told me that most babies grow about an inch a month and Emma

is growing an inch and a half each month. My dad may be right in predicting

that by the time Emma is two she will be bigger than Ryan!
