Wow, I can't believe it has been a full 2 months since you have been here and almost as long since I have written you.
You have been such a joy to have and we are getting to see more of your personality every day. For the most part you have been pretty calm and happy...unless you are hungry. You also have quite the comedic timing. Intentionally or not! Anyway, here are a few highlights from the last 2 months.
Sleep- you sleep pretty well at night as long as Mommy or Daddy are with you. For the 1st month, Mommy slept with you on the sofa. Some for you but mostly for her since she was still hurting from the surgery.
The week after we had you home, Mommy was a little emotional knowing how crazy your birth had been. So she started crying...to which you rolled your eyes. When I said "Hey little girl, you can't start rolling your eyes at me yet, you're not a teenager" you proceeded to stick your tongue out at me.
It took about 4 weeks for Mommy to be able to drive and about 5 to be able to get out of the house easily. Thank goodness for your Great-grandma Lilly and PawPaw for coming over almost every day to let Mommy take a shower and maybe catch a nap (or wash bottles/clothes/etc)
At the same time, Mommy interviewed for a new job teaching at Stratford and GOT IT! (yay!)
Months 1-2:
you are almost 9lbs and healthy. Mommy just went back to work on March 27 and you get to stay with your Abuelito, Abuelita, and Uncle Karim. You are so lucky because they love you so much.
We love taking pictures of you though we wish you would hold your smiles a little longer so we could get them on camera.
You have been to the mall a couple of times, visited both Mommy and Daddy's schools, and the office lots of times.
Also we have told everyone not to make jokes about babies when they are in mommy's belly. it comes back to bite you! We told our students we were having a velociraptor and when you get hungry you get screechy and try to eat your own hand. One of my students called you a ninja and it looks like you are one when you eat.
Also, we have been able to visit Audrey and Evan (born 2 months before you) and Henry (born 2 weeks after) maybe we will be able to meet Emma and Vivienne soon too!
it will not take me another 2 months to write I promise, little love!
