Two Months Old


Brooklyn was two months old on the 28th of February. I'm just a little slow in posting this.


Here is a little about our girl at two months old:

She is cooing and smiling more
She tracks and follows you around the room*
She LOVES to be held, rocked and her little bum patted
Still doesn't take the binkie (but I keep trying)
Sleeps a good 6 - 7 hour stretch at night
Starting to giggle
Loves to sit up and watch what is going on around her (we need a bumbo)
Likes her swing (but not for long)
Will smile at anyone who will give her attention
Has a hard time soothing herself
HAS to be rocked to sleep. She likes to be wrapped up tight
She will take your pinkie to suck on
Likes the bath
Loves to watch her brother and will give him lots of smiles and squeals
Her hair is getting long enough up front to put in a small ponytail
Appetite is increasing.
Holds her head up really well
Nickname is Bugsy (thanks Liz)

When grandma calls to talk to her she will stop crying and listen and smile

Was babysat by our friends the Atkinsons for the first time while Brock and I went out on a date. Since then she has spent quit a few afternoons and a night away from me.

Went for her first walk in the stroller and liked it even though it was a little cold and windy.

*Tyler never tracked us with his eyes so I forgot at what a young age babies can do this. When I figured out that Brooklyn could I got really excited and was so fascinated watching her watch me. One night I propped her up on my bed and I walked back and forth several times just to watch her track me. We definitely appreciate the little milestones she makes. We also are very more aware just how different and special Tyler was!

Ty was sure a special little guy, one I think about a LOT. I remember him looking up when he heard your voice, not tracking, but definitely a recognition of his momma. I can't believe all the things your little Brooklyn can do already, I really do need to meet her :) I love love love that she already has enough hair for a small pony tail, so fun!
