Adeline 2 months

Adeline Jean, you are the sweetest little baby. I can't say it enough. Grandma Ada is definitely sending us some of her peaceful demeanor through you. I just know it! A few things about your life right now.



Height: 23" (58%)

Weight: 13 lbs 9 oz (85%)

Head Circumference: 15.98 in (94%)

Clothes: 0-3 month clothes. Some 3-6 month clothes- especially pants. :)

Diapers: Size 2

Sleep: YOU ARE A GREAT SLEEPER. At least compared to what I experienced with Cooper. You take amazingly long naps (like 1-3 hours a few times a day)! You go to bed for the night between 9-10 and wake up to eat at 1 am (occasionally you skip this feeding and keep sleeping!), 4 am and then you are up for the day at 6 or 7. So manageable! Especially since you eat and then fall right back to sleep. You are still sleeping in your Rock n Play in our room. I am not ready to move you to your room yet for a few reasons. One reason, I am afraid you will disturb your brother's sleep and no one needs that! But mainly, I just like having you close so I can keep an eye on you and check on you instantly. :)

Recently, you decided it was okay to take a pacifier. It has been a great way to get you to fall asleep without nursing you to sleep (lesson learned from child numero uno).

Your eyes keep getting lighter, and so does your hair!

Nursing has been going well for both of us.

You continue to show me that you like to be independent, as independent as a 2 month old can be. You prefer to play on your play mat and reach for the your toys all by yourself.

What the video here  password: Cooper

You show off your dimple with your sweet smile often.

You smile at your big brother and he thinks it is so cool! He smiles back. It melts my heart.

Your life as a two month old, in pictures…

You met Hadley and Harper :)

Such a happy girl!

This moment. Every mom wishes they could bottle it up and keep it forever.

Your first M's game, you slept through almost all of it! 

Always smiling for your big brother

Go Hawks! 

your cheeks are too much cuteness, sis

You and mom at 2 months

First date for mom and dad since you were born was a Husky game. Grandma Mel watched you.

I tutor some of the neighbor kids. Cooper gets to go play with the older kids (while the neighbor watches) and you quietly observe from your favorite chair. I love that I get to use my teacher brain while getting to be at home with you (and your brother of course!). And who knows, maybe you will pick up your multiplication facts through osmosis :)

Dear time, please slow down.
