Reece's little personality is starting to come out so much more. She is smiling tons and cooing and talking to us all the time! She has the sweetest gummy grin, and I just want to kiss her sweet little mouth all the time! We are still battling the reflux and the fussiness, but she seems to have more good days than bad now. She got her two month shots yesterday, and actually took them a lot better than I was expecting! The main thing we are going to be working on right now is her sleeping. She is definitely not getting enough sleep, and doesn't like to nap for more than a half hour at a time. Her pediatrician said that it is bad for her growth and development to not get enough sleep, and suggested that we start letting her cry it out so that she learns to fall asleep on her own. We are working on that this week! She hasn't really had to cry all that much so far, so we'll see how well I can do when that time comes! I know it will be better for her in the long run.
At two months, Reece likes:
* smiling at Mom and Dad
* cooing to Mom and Dad
* being rocked
* being held
* laying on her changing table
* looking around while laying in her crib
At two months, Reece tolerates:
* taking a bath
* being in her swing
At two months, Reece doesn't like:
* getting dressed - especially putting her arms through the sleeves!
* being put down for too long
* tummy time
She is a sweet girl, and I am loving learning more about her every day!
Other than that, we are pretty boring. Josh is still working super hard at both of his jobs. I have started watching Millie again. Luckily Millie is really good and independent, so that makes it much easier. It will just keep getting easier as Reece gets a little more independent and not so needy. I'm going to be a pro when we have two kids of our own!
Thanksgiving is in a couple of days. Josh is working both of his jobs that day, and I am heading to his aunt's house to spend the day with his family. Ben and Sharon are here to have Thanksgiving with her family, so we'll get to spend a little bit of time with them. I'm excited to see them and their boys!
Here are a few pictures of the babe that Nikki took for us last weekend.
