Brooklyn is 2 Months Old!

Can't believe my baby is two months old! Here she is on her big day. Happy 2 months Brooklyn.The Lee girls were in town...here is Makena with Hannah and Faith.


Here is Melanie, my BFF, with Makena and Kara with Brooklyn.



My sweet girl sleeping.

And I couldn't resist the "bow head" picture.





At 2 months old Brooklyn weighed 11 pounds and 23.5 inches long. Her head is 15.5 inches around. She is growing right on track. Dr. T said she looks great. She loves to stand on her legs. She does not like to bend at the waste. Makena was like that too. Brooklyn is so alert for her age. She really makes eye contact and smile the cutest open mouth smile you have ever seen. She may be my little social butterfly. She started cooing and making noises. So precious!



Sleeping and eating is not very scheduled and is still on demand. She is still eating 6-8 times a day and varying times she is sleeping through the night. The longest is around 7.5 hours between feedings. Therefore her 1 month start of 7 hours did not continue on an everyday basis but we take what we can get and try to make it through the days Mommy doesn't get much sleep.


Brooklyn continues to be a mover and a shaker. She squirms and kicks all the time. Sometimes I wonder if she doesn't sleep very long at night because she kicks and moves constantly. A lot of the time she sleeps through it but I think it wakes her some as well. We stopped swaddling her because she would scream and fight until she got her arms out.



Brooklyn still has her blue/gray eyes and the little bit of hair she was born with. She continues to look a lot like her Daddy but maybe with my nose. Hard to tell at this point but it continues to look broader than Don's...more like Makena's. I think she is going to favor Don more from those beautiful blue eyes to her long little toes.
