Two Months In


Motherhood has treated me well, thus far. While I haven't lost all the weight I gained, I can't complain. Eliana is an amazing baby, she's not fussy, is unaffected by what I eat, sleeps well, and if I may be so bold-the most beautiful little girl! She still spends most of her time sleeping, but during her time awake, she's become more interactive. About 3 weeks ago she started "talking." We love hearing her voice as she coos, goo-goo's and ga-ga's (I didn't realize babies actually make those noises.). She smiles and looks at me with those big eyes that melt my heart. There's debate about her hair color, we think it's red, but we'll have to wait until she gets more.

Eliana had her 2 month appointment two days ago. She's a healthy 12.3 pound, 22 3/4 inch baby, up from 9 1/2 at her one month appointment. I wasn't prepared for her first round of vaccinations, but we pulled through alright; :) Eliana slept most of the day (I guess she needed to recover).

I love being able to be at home with my little girl and am enjoying every moment. Jeremy and I are so blessed! I thank God every day for her.
