Two Months!

Harper Jane is 2 months old today!  Look at this happy, thriving little sweet potato!

Her 2 month well-baby check-up is next week--but as far as we can tell, she weighs somewhere between 11.5 and 12 pounds and measures about 23.5 inches long. 

She is smiley, smiley, smiley!  Especially in the morning.  She is not QUITE laughing...almost there.  Right now she will just do a loud SQUEAK with a huge smile on her face :-D 

She is also getting really good at holding her head up and I can face her 'out' in her baby bjorn carrier. 

I am loving her sleep schedule right now and Josh and I have a great system worked out.  We give her a bath around 8, I nurse her last at 9:30 and I head to bed around 10, Josh then takes her and finishes getting her to sleep and then comes to bed (in which I am already out cold).  She's usually asleep by 10:30, sleeps until 3:30, nurses, back to sleep by 4:30, and then awake again between 7 and 8.  Not too shabby!  For her next step, I'd love her to get to bed a bit earlier so Josh and I actually have some time together at night. 

Her interests right now include her Baby Einstein Gym, this little pink hanging dragonfly thing, patterns, bath time, being naked, and music.  Her dragonfly toy is next to her changing table and she absolutely has a blast just banging it around while she is getting her diaper changed.  She's obviously working towards grabbing things and gets really happy when she makes this happen!  Music makes her happy and calm.  She also is downright giddy when mommy sings to her-which is good because I'm always singing!  Josh is super playful and silly with her which always makes her smile from ear to ear and squeak-out a little 'laugh'-she's already a daddy's girl!

Happy two months, baby girl!  We love you to the moon, Harper Bear, Doodle Bug, Sweet Potato...
