It’s been two months since Emma’s arrival, y’all. TWO WHOLE MONTHS.
Crazy.

(It's like a bookmark, but...not.)
Anyway, it’s nearly NOT her two-month-day anymore so I’m going to make this one brief. (Sorry, second child.)
- Emma’s smiling! It’s adorable and her little toothless, gummy grin melts me into a puddle of Mom-goo.
- She’s had her first stay at daycare and she did great! Everyone who worked there when Joshua was an infant remarked how she’s way less…Joshua…than Joshua. She’s just really easy going until she’s hungry or bored or tired.
- She still loves the boob. Loves.
- And because she loves the boobs, she probably weighs close to 12 pounds, but we won’t know for sure until Wednesday.
- She has to get shots on Wednesday. Which means I may need to take shots because I’ll have Joshua with me at the pediatrician’s office. (Any tips, SAHM-friends? Because, yeah. High-energy toddler + 2 month well baby visit. I need to pay attention and then deal with the tears from the needles without having him throw a tantrum.)
- She also loves to snuggle for naps and sleeping so I just snuggle with her and catch some sleep myself if I can.
- We think she may be close to rolling from belly to back (the easy roll) but it’s really more like she gets her feet underneath herself and flips her body over. Or lets her giant head lead the way.
- I think she’s maybe settling into a bit of a routine, which is nice.
- She still hates the car seat.
Mwah!
Cheese!!
Oh, hai there.
2 months already?!? God where does the time go????
The thoughts that ran through my brain when I saw her pictures:
1.) Squishy baby cheeks!
2.) Adorable
3.) Blue Steel look
Love your captions! And I have no idea where the time goes. NO IDEA.
she is absolutely adorable!
Thank you! I think so too!
I can’t even comprehend that she’s already two months. She sure is a cutie!
I feel like the past two months have gone so quickly that the next step is college. And I know what I was like in college.
Oh my gosh, she looks SO much like you!
Thanks! I don’t see it and think I’ve birthed a baby Asian!
Ack! The cuteness overwhelms! Seriously, she is adorable, Miranda!
Thank you!
you know this means C is 3 months on tuesday. oh lawd.
C was over 12 lbs at his 2 month visit. For reals, yo. And he was STILL 2 pounds lighter than his older brother at that age. What that what?
And yes, C is way less….E too. ‘Tis a good thing. There is only room in this world for one Eddie. Just like there is room for only one Joshua 🙂
And you know I could nom on Emma. Totes nom.
There is SO only enough room for one Joshua. Only one. God broke the mold with his.
I’ll nom on her for you. She’s nommable.
she is gorgeous!
Thanks!
Precious little girl!
She’s totally a sweetheart!
Oh, that smile . . . you’re going to have your hands full soon enough 🙂
In all honesty, who doesn’t love the boob?
My pediatrician is super good about shots with the kids (and they’re on different schedules, so it’s very rare that they both need shots during the same visit) . . . two nurses enter – I hold, they each take one leg, and prick until done. It’s very rare to have things take more than a minute . . . and, if it’s Leila who is getting stuck (she’s usually content just looking in a mirror if she has to entertain herself), the minute is not quite enough time for CJ to really get into much trouble, especially if you give him a tongue depressor or two.
I’m a bit scared of that whole hands full thing. Dan thinks perhaps he should buy a shotgun to scare the boys with.
And I will never, ever, ever take both of them to the doctor again if it kills me. Because it almost killed me. Never.
I’m pretty much at the same place you are! My little boy is about a month older though. I just saw your comment on twitter about Emma loving the boob!! And died laughing. My 2nd son was like that. And if she’s that bad, I’m here to warn you it might just not get any better. He weaned at 15 months. Really I was okay with it but it did get kinda old because my husband could never put him to bed. He finally got better during the day after six months or so but at night he still needed me to nurse him to get him to sleep. Now he’s a spunky 2.5 yr old!!
I would love if you would follow me on twitter so we could “chat” about mutual newborn things! 🙂 cookiecrums123
