Ella is now 2 months old and as happy as she can be. She's smiling a ton and just started to talk to us. It's funny how she sticks out her tongue when she's trying to talk, and she is entertained by the different sounds she can make (some of them scare her - so cute). We have started to suppliment 3-4 oz bottles of formula into her daily feeding (7 weeks) and she is doing great. She's still eating about every 3 hours, but sleeps at night from 10PM to 7AM without feeding. It's definetly a lot easier giving her a bottle, but I still enjoy "our" nursing times too. She's finally outgrown her newborn diaper and clothes and we're getting to enjoy some 0-3 month outfits- YEAH. However, since I though she would have been bigger (and would have worn these the past couple of months)all the 0-3 month outfits I bought are a little out of season. She is still loving her activity mat - especially her green giraffe that rattles and the yellow lion, and LOVES LOVES reading books. She has already taken an interest in her brother's favorite book "Wheels on the Bus". When we get to "The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish", her little legs go crazy and she tries to touch them as they move (it's a movable parts books). Another of her favorite we read before bed is "Good Night Moon". This was one of her daddy's favorites when he was litte, and we enjoy carrying on the tradition. She's adapted well to her routine, with the execptions to the occasionally selfish nights I bring her to bed with me because I miss her. She's a SUPER baby...we couldn't have gotten any luckier.
