Two Months

Well.... our baby is officially two months old!! I can't believe how quickly she is growing and changing. In the past 3 weeks alone, she has started to smile in response to people and sometimes just because she sees you, started wanting to be in the stand up position, and started to like her mobiles and toys more. We've also had some major diaper blowouts lately, which we hadn't really had problems with before. I should probably invest in some Pampers stock because we are flying through them!!! Lucky for me, her daddy is the pro at changing poopy diapers and I don't have to do too much diaper duty! Mia has even begun giggling a little bit, but as luck would have it, she clams up the second a camera comes out, so hopefully we'll be getting some recordings of that soon enough! Mia still is waking up two to three times a night to eat and because she wants to sleep with us, but hopefully she will start sleeping through the night longer soon since I'll be back at work in two weeks. We went today for her two month shots and that was pretty tough! As expected, she was NOT happy to get her shots and cried for about ten minutes inconsolably afterward. She even cried her first real tear.... which was devastating for me, but we made it through! She's just been zonked out since we've been home. Good thing she can't speak yet, because this would have been a good time to ask mommy and daddy for a pony!! (I think this child may end up being a little spoiled...) We look forward to all of the new things she will do this month and are anxious about going back to work.  I know it will all be ok, but its still hard to think about.

Here are her two month photos!
