Audrey Joy - Two Months Old

On the 18th of January, Audrey turned two months old. The changes that have taken place seem minor, but she has taken a huge leap from  newborn to infant or baby. There is no newborn left in this this little girl. 

We went to the doctor to do the usual check up and vaccines. She screamed something fierce from the shots but calmed down a lot quicker than I had expected as soon as I was holding her. Here are her stats:

According to Babycenter.com, her stats compared to Josie's are:

I was really surprised to see that she is that much smaller than Josie! But then again, these stats for Jo are different than what I was told at the time. These seem more accurate to me because I never felt like Josie was a lot bigger than other babies, and if she had truly been 95%, she would have been, right? Anyways, I digress.

Audrey is HEALTHY. She's perfect. I just like comparisons for the fun of it. She is a peanut compared to her sister, but only time will tell if she catches up or not!

She still loves to sleep and once she gets in to the deep sleep mode, she's out for hours. When she's tired, she gets crabby but it is pretty easy to get her settled down and to sleep by just swaddling her tight and holding her pacifier in (cannot wait for her to figure out how to hold on to that thing!). I'd say nine times out of ten, if she's crying or fussing, it's because she's tired. She just loves to sleep.

She's a great eater. No problems at all! My production has been great and we have had no hiccups since those first couple of weeks.

She's wearing all 0-3 months clothes and has plenty of room left in them for another month or two. We are finally using cloth diapers (finished up the last of the disposables) and I think we'll use the FLIP diapers for her since they seem to fit her body well. She has not had any blow outs with them, which is awesome since she was having at least one a day with the disposables. I was sick of that. Josie is using our other cloth diapers that have stretched out. I initially didn't like them for her since they leaked a lot, but now that she's grown a bit more, they fit great and she's having a lot less leaks. I'm hoping we have a good experience with Audrey and cloth diapers because I really do prefer them over disposables.

She is such a smiler! I feel like she just lives for the moments when our face is hovering over hers. She coos, laughs, and giggles. She loves when we sing or make silly noises. She won't take her eyes off of us the whole time and if we move out of her view and then come back a minute or two later, she picks up right where we left off. It's so much fun.

The other thing worth noting is how much she loves to be held and how much she is a mama's girl. It warms my heart how much she loves to cuddle and when she nuzzles her head into my neck, I could just die. It's so awesome. Combine that with Josie's new thing - hugging and kissing at random - and this mama has the best life ever.

Now for the pictures! Here she is, our little camera-lovin' smiley babe.
