Olivia at 2 Months

Today was supposed to be Olivia's 2 month appointment with her pediatrician, however, we had a little snafu with our insurance (we forgot to add her to our policy). So while that's being worked out I decided to go ahead and measure her to see how she's growing.

Here are her stats:

Head circumference: 15 3/4 inches
Length: 23 inches
Weight: 13.8 lbs

Every day Olivia seems to be "coming alive" and is in a great mood after her feedings, especially once she's awake around 730-830am. She stretches on the changing table, smiles and coos and is so happy and willing to "talk." Every day she "talks" more and more.

In the past three nights she's become an amazing sleeper! She was sleeping from 10pm until 330 or 4am, but starting on Sunday night she's now ready for bed around 8:30pm, after a bath and feeding, goes to sleep (in the swing still) and sleeps until 530/6am! Plus, I lay her down in the swing with her eyes open, although she's obviously very tired. I sometimes have to go back in and give her her pacifier for a minute, but otherwise she goes to sleep without a hitch. The real test will be moving her to her crib. After her early morning feeding, she wakes up 3 hours later for her next feeding. CK calls her "Little Olivia Alarm Clock" because she's so consistent. It's so great to have a full nights sleep and thinking back 5 or 6 weeks ago, I never imagined we'd have such a successful sleeper so early!

She's now into size 2 diapers and also tends to drool a lot. She usually eats, stays awake and is happy and "talkative" for about an hour or more and then is ready to sleep.

She's growing up so fast!

Look at that belly! Olivia loves her evening bath and kicks her legs in the water.
