2 Months Old!!

Ilah , you are 2 months old today!! Here's what you've been up to....

  • You started to sleep in your own room, in your crib, and you are doing great! We are so proud of you!!

  • You love your morning cuddle time with mommy. And I love it too!

  • You’re starting to stay awake longer now during the day. But you still take a long nap in the morning and a long nap in the afternoon.

  • You’ve discovered your arms and hands {which are open most of the time now} and you are starting to hold onto things for a little while.
  • You follow objects when they are passed over your face.


  • You are such a calm, easy baby and we are so thankful. You only cry when you are hungry or want to be soothed by your pacifer.
  • You are drinking 4 ounces of formula at each feeding {sometimes 5!}.
  • You love, love, love your swing.
  • You like looking at yourself in mirrors! The one on your swing mobile especially, and the one in the car infront of you that allows mommy and daddy to see you in the backseat.

  • You kick and wave your arms when you’re excited!

  • You recognize mommy and daddy’s face and our voice. If one of us leaves the room, you turn to see where we are going. And if you hear one of us, but don’t see us, you turn your head to see where we are. We just love that you know us!
  • Daddy sings you lullaby’s and mommy likes to hum them. Either way, you enjoy hearing us!
  • We love to play and interact with you! We do tummy time with you, read you books, give you toys that you can grasp, and Daddy has shown you what a rattle looks like and the sound that it makes – you loved it!

  • You steadily hold your head up longer and you use your arms for support…

  • You have started to roll over on your side and while playing with you on the floor, you’ve rolled over once.

  • You are still bearing weight on your legs when held upright. You are one strong girl!

  • You always fall asleep in your car seat. Always.

  • After a bottle you sometimes burp right away but other times it takes you sooo long to burp. You make mommy and daddy practice patience : )


  • To give you a change of scenery, we’ve taken you out for a few “walks” around the neighborhood. You liked the fresh air and we did too!
  • You’re fascinated by ceiling fans – whether the light is on or not.
  • You aren’t bothered by loud noises at all – many people could be talking loudly in a room, or the tv volume could suddenly rise, and you sleep right through it. Mommy has even vacuumed near you and you didn’t wake up.
  • You are starting to recognize a few familiar things, such as your bottle, pacifer, and definitely your home environment.

  • You’re fascinated by shadows. The first time that I plugged in your nightlight, you stared at the shadow on the wall for quite a bit.

  • You smile at us now and it melts our heart! You are also making cooing sounds! We can’t wait to hear you laugh!

  • Your daddy is SO great with you!! He calls to check on you every day while he’s at work and he can’t wait to see you when he gets home. The first thing he does when he walks in the door is pick you up and love on you…


You bring so much joy to our lives!! We love you sweet girl!!
