You are a happy, sensitive baby. You want what you want when you want it, I wonder where you get this from? You are happiest in the morning when you first wake up and grumpiest in the evenings. I sing you the "Good morning song" every morning and you smile and coo. I think you recognize it now. You have even giggled a small giggle once or twice! You also like "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Patty Cake". You are starting to recognize familiar faces and you definitely know your Mommy and Daddy. You're neck is getting stronger and you are able to hold your head up longer and steadier every day. You still hate tummy time for the most part, but you like laying on your belly when you are on Mommy's or Daddy's chest. At six weeks you rolled from front to back for the first time. Now you can do it both ways and you do it often to avoid the dreaded tummy time! You're legs are very strong! When we support you, you can hold yourself up on your legs. You puff out your chest, flex your arms and open your eyes wide, it makes us laugh. Just this past week you have started to entertain yourself for small amounts of time. I can lay you in your pack-and-play or put you in your swing for 10 minutes at a time and you watch the mobile or listen to the music. You are starting to notice your hands. For three days, you have been sucking on them more and more! You are getting better at holding your pacifier in, but we still have to hold it for you sometimes. You hate wet diapers with a passion, and you are not afraid to let us know it! You love taking a bath, but you hate being cold when you are done and we have to lotion you up and dress you fast lest we face your wrath. Your eyes are definitely dark brown. Your hair is very light brown but your eyebrows still look blond. You hate to be swaddled, but it is the only way you can sleep without waking yourself up. Not that you stay in a swaddle very long, we call you Houdini! Sometimes you'll sleep in your bassinet but you would rather sleep in bed with us. We laugh because we are scared you will sleep in our bed until you are five. You love when we read you stories at bedtime. Sometimes you stop nursing to smile at me, it melts my heart! You love music, especially classic rock. Not surprising since your Dad and you like to sit in his the office while he plays music for you on the computer. At a month and a half you grew out of newborn clothes and you wear 0-3 months size now. Your socks still fall off your long, skinny feet. We cannot believe how fast you are growing. It seems impossible but we love you more every day!
Today, you are two months old.
