Alice at two months

Alice's two month birthday came and went on Monday. We've been busy, so didn't really do anything special.

She is still doing very well. She even slept through the night once this week! Most nights she has to wake up at least once, but she has started to go to sleep in her crib around 8 or 9.

She continues to eat very well, though she still spits up, sometimes a lot. Jeni brought her in to the doctor today for shots, weighing, etc. She is 24 inches long (but Jeni thinks the nurse undermeasured) and weighs 13 lb 5.5 oz. Both of those are above the 90th percentile. So she's big, but well proportioned.

Here she is after a bath. Her hair still curls and sticks up, and doesn't lie flat for a few days afterward.

When Alice is awake and not too hungry, she loves to make eye contact, smile, and laugh. Here she is on Bubba's lap a few weekends ago.

Alice spends late afternoons in the automatic swing. She'll usually sleep, but only after staring at the moving fish for a while.

Thanks to the swing, Jeni is able to play with Mason a bit and make dinner for us all. So thank you swing makers!
