2 months





At 2 months...
-Elsie weighs 11 lbs. 6 oz. and is 23.5 inches long.
-Wears mostly 0-3 month clothes.
-Is much more interactive. Likes to watch and smile at people talking to her. She will also coo and wave her arms around in excitement.
-Is very happy during play time in the morning. She coos and smiles a lot. She will get excited and start panting to catch her breath.
-Loves to look at the ceiling fan.
-Looks and smiles at other babies in baby class.
-Doesn't show much interest in rattles.
-Doesn't mind tummy time. Moves her head around with ease now. Actually moves her body a little as well - if she has gas.
-Speaking of gas, generally takes gas drops at least once a day. She is very farty. Likes to have her diaper off and legs pressed up to her tummy.
-Started wearing cloth diapers.
-Still loves a good relaxing bath.
-Just started having a nighttime routine and bedtime. Has slept in her crib 2 nights.
-Before moving to her crib, her first stretch of sleep lasted 7-8 hours between feedings. The last 2 nights in her crib, she has gone to 5 hours between feedings. Wakes twice in the night for feedings and wakes up for the day between 7:00-9:00.
-Still gets the hiccups all the time!
-Still spits up a lot but is getting better. For one week, she was extremely crabby and screaming after feedings.
-Has used a bottle for feedings on 2 occasions and was very crabby and screaming afterward.
-Days are now broken up into longer awake and napping periods. Sleeps 14-16 hours a day.
-speaking of sleep, she just woke up from a 45 minute nap and it is time to get her...
