2 Months

This little missy is already 2 months! The second month definitely went by a lot faster than the first. We're finally getting used to parenthood and I like to think it's getting a little easier. Olivia has had acid reflux, so this last month has been interesting. I thought her fussiness would peak at 6 weeks, but it was getting worse and worse, crying was turning into screaming, screaming for a few minutes turned to a few hours, naps were 45 minutes, she was eating every 2 hours, and not sleeping much longer than 3. I finally called the nurse, she started Maalox to temporarily help, and Prevacid which is just now starting to kick in.

We finally are getting to know our happy little baby, rather than the baby who has been in pain. She loves her changing table, she'll just stare out the window and be happy while I get ready for the day. She's been trying really hard to hold her head up, she has her mouth open and her eyes just stare as if she's in deep concentration. She recognizes my voice and Ryans voice, her eyes will follow us around the room, and she loves to smile for us. She smiles the most when we tell her she's a "pretty girl".

Our little chubb-o is 12 lbs. 9 oz. in the 89th percentile, and 23 1/2 inches long in the 88th percentile. She has the cutest little belly, rolly legs and double chin. I love watching her grow and progress. We love you Livy!
