My sweet Gracie, it’s hard to believe you are two months old already! This past month has been so fun and you’ve really turned a corner!
The biggest difference is that you no longer scream all day, every day! Somewhere around five weeks, I began exclusively nursing and took you off all formula and that seemed to do the magic trick. I think your belly was just too sensitive to process anything other than breast milk.
You smile all the time now and are so happy! The only time you fuss is if you are hungry, or tired or want to be held.
You still hate napping during the day, and will only take catnaps while laying on me. Now that mommy is back to work, I’m hoping you’ll get better about laying down for a nap! Your sleep at night is hit or miss. Some nights you sleep 6-7 hours straight and then other nights you are still up 2-3 times a night. Those nights weren’t so bad when we could lay in bed all day and cuddle, but now mommy has to get up for work! I hope to get you on a better sleep schedule by 12 weeks 
Highlights from your second month:
 |
You discovered the animals hanging from your activity mat, and you will happily play here. The giraffe is your favorite!
 |
We took you to Ipswich River Park for the first time and you slept, and then hung out with us in the shade while Gunner sprinted around
 |
You rocking your new sunglasses on a second trip to the park!!
 |
Your first trip to the wade pool at Bradley Palmer! Auntie Becca got to meet you for the first time
 |
You were so precious in your bathing suit!!
 |
Fourth of July was your first holiday and you looked so festive!!
 |
We went to your first family cookout on the McKenney side and Gram and Grampy’s house!!
 |
All the excitement from the cookout tired you right out!
 |
Mommy went back to work this past Monday and after I picked you up from Grandma’s we took another selfie in the park! I miss you so much when we aren’t together!!
 |
And then you turned two months old!!
You can already pick your head up like you want to sit up. You only like to be held facing out so you can see the world You still love bath time. And you still hate sitting in your car seat!
You still love bath time. And you still hate sitting in your car seat! I know this next month will be full of lots more big milestones for you and we are so excited to watch you grow. You have been the biggest blessing and we love you to the moon and back!!!
