Kids Say The Cutest Things.....



The other day as Milan crawled onto my lap with her nose running, she pointed to her nose and said, " Mommy...tissue please...nose crying".



















Trying out our new, awesome, double stroller...thank you Dr. Ronis!!!

Two Month Stats



Weight - 10 lbs 9 oz - 42nd percentile
Height - 22.5 inches - 54th percentile

Finally, after a slow start re-gaining her birth weight (she dropped from 9lbs to 8 lbs 2 oz before leaving the hospital and it took us 5 weeks to get back up to 9 lbs--her pediatrician wanted her back up to her birth weight within the first two weeks), she is finally gaining at a pace her pediatrician's are thrilled with! Although a bigger baby at birth, she now seems to be quite average in size.

Two Months Old




Yesterday our little Moma (this is what Milan calls her and now we are all calling her Moma), turned two months old. I can't believe how quickly time is flying by. She is definitely more alert, has much longer awake times, smiles a lot, and drumroll please..... officially slept through the night last night! Yes, my little Paloma slept from 11pm to 7am! I finally had to wake her as I had not nursed her for several hours and was in a lot of pain. Tomorrow is her two month well check and afterwards I will post her stats.

Happy Two Month Birthday, Sweetie!

Finally, Spring is in the Air!



After a long, hard winter, Spring finally made an appearance this week. Since Monday, we've had temperatures in the 60's, so the girls and I have spent some time each day walking around the farm and enjoying the beautiful weather. Milan loves our walks and is intent on finding a stray cat we discovered on Tuesday. She walks around continuously yelling "cat" or "hey cat". Paloma, on the other hand, falls fast asleep the second we are outside...I don't think she has opened her eyes once in the last four days during our little outdoor excursions.

Potty Time?!



All of a sudden this week, Milan has been asking to use the potty. She hasn't "produced" anything yet, and is more than happy to sit on the pot for 15-20 min...a long time when I have a baby fussing in another room, but it is all exciting nonetheless. I probably won't start serious training until April, but in the meantime, I've started her sitting on the potty during diaper changes. In April we will bring out the big girl underwear and keep our fingers crossed!





And yes, I'm sure she will hate me one day because of these pictures!
