2 Months!

Is it really possible that Harper is already 2 months old? We had her 2 month check up today and her's her stats: 10 pounds even; 23 inches long! She is in the 75th percentile for height and somewhere between 25th and 50th for weight. (I'll estimate 40th) Definitely a long skinny thing!

She is a great sleeper. On an average night her last feeding will be at 10pm and she'll sleep straight through until 4:30 or 5am. (which she has actually been doing since about 6 weeks or so) After a little breakfast, she usually sleeps until 8 or 9. Some nights she wakes up for the darn passy in the middle of the night... but if we give it to her, she's right back to sleep. This is why I am trying to teach her how to suck her fingers, hand, thumb... anything that she can do by herself...I know, I know... dentists and dental hygienists everywhere are shrieking! Hey, a mom's got to sleep, right?

Harper's temperament is great. She is a very happy baby, she usually only cries when she has a need. She smiles a lot, especially in the morning, and loves watching everything Grace does. She's patient with all Grace's kisses, snuggles, 'bonks' and tugs. She's a kind of go with the flow baby for sure. She's started 'talking' to us a little bit and every sound she makes, Grace is convinced that Harps is trying to say her name.

We are still wearing newborn diapers and newborn-3 month clothes... I do put size one diapers on her at night because they hold more and I don't have to get up and change her when I hear an explosion through the monitor... (don't judge... I need sleep!)

She's been to 2 hockey games and made her debut on the jumbo-tron last night. She's not crazy about the LOUD noises (aka. the blaring-fog horn thing) but enjoys all the lights and of course all the attention she gets.

Here are some pictures of her latest skills:

Sitting in the Bumbo.

Tolerating tummy time, with a little help from the boppy.

Drinking out of a bottle! (Yay for me, right!)

Taking in the many, many, many things Grace says to her throughout the day.
