2 Months old

Amelia turned 2 months old this past weekend!  I can hardly believe it- the time has gone by so fast!  At her Dr's appointment this morning she was 11 lbs 1oz and 22 3/4 inches long.  She got her shots today and screamed like crazy- it took me quite a little while to get her calmed back down again.  Amelia is such a great baby- she brings her daddy and me so much joy.  I just can't picture life without her now.


Amelia typically takes about an hour nap in the morning and anywhere from 1-2 hour nap in the afternoon.  I believe she is awake so much more during the day now because she is sleeping through the night.  Amelia loves her bath at night with Daddy. We bathe her in our bathroom that has a large mirror and she loves to look at herself.  She has also started sucking on her fist- usually when she is getting hungry.  Sometimes she will put one finger in her mouth but it's usually just the edge of her fist.  I don't want her to get used to sucking on her fingers so I try to give her a pacifier but she doesn't really like them. She is really kicking her legs and moving her arms a whole lot more- especially when she is in her bouncer seat or on the play mat.  She absolutely hates being on her tummy!  Amelia's hair is getting longer and a little bit lighter in color.  Her eyes are still bright blue (which her mommy and Grandma Aleshire are grateful for).

She has just started smiling this past week- really smiling in response to us.  I just love it!  I'm trying to capture the smile with the picture- just haven't gotten it yet (I'm enjoying it so much I don't think about getting the camera). Hopefully soon :)  For now, enjoy this sweet picture of her-she is really mesmerized by the ceiling fan in her room :)
