Olivia at 8 weeks

Our little Olivia is 8 weeks old and growing so quickly! We weighed her on Saturday and she is an even 13 lbs already! Her two month pediatrician appointment isn't until November 3rd, so we won't know her percentiles until then, and I can't wait to see how much she's grown! She's becoming so alert and is awake during the day a lot more than we remember from Sofia. She loves to watch whatever Sofia is doing, even when Sofia is an inch from her face and talking to her about trains. During the day as long as she's fed, she's awake and happy but once she's getting tired she tends to cry and fight sleep until all at once she's out! She went through a fussy time at night the past two weeks but seems to be out of it now, with the past three nights being calm. Hopefully she's done.

On Sunday night we moved her swing into her room, set up the video monitor, and she slept for the first time in her room. We gave her a bath, I fed her, and laid her down in the swing sleepy but still awake and walked out of her room at 9:30pm. Amazingly she slept until almost 4am! We couldn't believe it and I kept waking up and checking the monitor to be sure she was ok. It was such a treat to get that much sleep in one stretch and after I fed her she went right back to sleep until 7:30am, when we all have to get going to get Sofia to school on time. Hopefully she continues having such great nights of sleep!

Such a pretty 8 week old


She's getting so big next to her stuffed animals


Sweet girl


This is one of my absolute favorite outfits that Sofia wore, but I think Sofia wore it when she was 3 months old and already at 8 weeks, it is barely fitting Olivia in the length! She's really growing long fast!
