Baby Blog: 2 months old

Well, what do ya know.
I have a two month old on my hands!

Ms. Iris Adella…
● Is extra smiley in the morning, but not so much after naps.
● Has a bedtime routine which includes a bath (she’s quite the splasher) and story time (Night-Night Little Pookie is on repeat these days).
● Has been sleeping five hour stretches some nights.
● And has zombies for parents.
● While she’s been cooing a bit here and there, on her 8 week birthday she woke up a little chatterbox, making all sorts of sweet sounds.
● Miss Independent. Iris doesn’t always like being held. While she puts up with it, she makes it known that she’d rather be laying beside you rather than in your arms. It makes it a bit easier to do things around the house, but sometimes a momma just wants to cuddle.
● Her hair still hasn’t fallen out (I’m crossing my fingers that it’s here to stay). It’s growing fast and growing in lighter.
● She had her first Thanksgiving, in Tulsa with family.
● She didn’t care for tummy time until just this past Friday when she learned to roll over! She did it like six times in a row, so I was able to capture it on video.

Here are my Instagram photos from the last month or so…

    Did you have a lot of acid reflux when you were preggers because she has a mighty awesome head of hair! I am sure you have heard that if you have a lot of heart burn while pregnant the baby will have a full head of hair… that why I ask.
    I am having a lot of acid reflux and think it would be awesome if my little man came out with a full head of gorgeous hair!
    Beautiful Iris!

    You know I think Iris is the cutest thing ever, but I have to admit that my favorite picture out of all of these is creepy cat. So. Funny!

    I love her, what a trip! Her hair is amazing and her little personality is precious

    WTF windows is a bsworer. the windows explorer is integrated in to windows which lets you browse. it just shows how stupid people ARE (google?) and plus visual studio is my most favourite program(google has lost the ability to predict that when you have a computer you automatic ely make your bsworer is the most important thing. I HATE HOW GOOGLE MAKES PEOPLE SOO STUPID>:-(
