Baby Cream: 2 Months

A little over two months ago we welcomed our second little girl into the family. Cream is fitting in more and more everyday. Peachy is adjusting to being the big sister and I am adjusting to being the mother of two. Sometimes I forget just how much Cream has changed over the past few months, and even weeks. She has gone from a newborn who really didn't do much to a baby who will smile, talk, and kick when we talk to her. Her little eyes have gone from being  shut most of the day to having alert times where she is taking everything in. And her evening crying sessions are on the downswing.
Cream is still doing a great job with her nighttime sleep. There have been nights where she has logged 10 hours of sleep. She will also allow us to put her down while she is still awake and will fall asleep on her own. I totally credit the swaddle and the pacifier for this. Naps still come and go throughout the day. Some days she seems to sleep the entire day away and then there are others where she only catches catnaps here and there.

Lately she has been loving her bouncy seat and also the mirror on her swing. She will sit in her swing and talk and talk to that baby in the mirror. She also loves the changing area on the Pack and Play. She sits there and looks up at the closet shelf and smiles. I would love to be on her level and see what it is that she finds so interesting.

We had her in for her 2 month well baby visit last week and found out that she is 23 inches long (71%), 12 pounds and 6 ounces (83%),  and has a head circumference of 15.7 inches (78%). She is just behind where Peachy was at this age. While I had no doubt, it is good to know that we have a thriving healthy little girl on our hands.
