2 Months!



I can't believe little Emmy is already 2 months old! It truly does seem like the second one grows faster. :( No matter how much I want to make time stand still, it's not happening. Emerson has brought so much joy to our family. Seeing Zach as a dad all over again and Ella as a {fabulous} big sister makes my heart happy.



Em had her 2 month well check on Tuesday and the dr. could not be more pleased with her progress. She was all smiles as she was being looked over, but as soon as the shots began, the tears started flowing. So sad!

Here are her stats at 2 months!
Height: 22 inches (50%)
Weight: 12.2 lbs (75%)
Head: 41.5 (90%)


Ha! Our little girl has a big head!!! Lots of brains, I guess?! :) The dr. assured me that she would grown into it though!



Even though the girls are so close in age, it is amazing how quickly I forgot each stage. It is so fun living through the infant stage again, seeing the smiles and hearing the coos for the first time with a new little face! Emerson is definitely a happy, sweet, snuggly little thing and I love it!!!

Here are some things Miss Emerson can do at 2 months:

*SMILE!!!
*Coo and "talk" back
*Likes to push up and stand when you are holding her
*LOVES her big sis...Ella has a way of making her smile BIG!
*Can make eye contact and recognize faces
*Follows objects
*Grabs things
*Enjoys her some tummy time!
*Loves the swing. So exciting, because Ella hated it!
*Eats 5 ounces already!!!
*Has started sleeping for longer periods of time after feedings.
*Becoming more wakeful during the day.



Just for fun, here is a little comparison...

I agree with Howry. I think they look different. Each one is beautiful of course, but have their own distinct "look"!
