Moving on up

Vivian had to go up another diaper size this week! She was in newborn size for about six weeks then shot through the size ones in less than four. Now we have moved onto twos because I got tired of cleaning up blowouts. TMI. She has also already grown out of her 0-3 month clothes!! She is getting so big. The good news (aside from her growth meaning she is healthy and all) is that now she has a whole new wardrobe to play with! Most of the clothes she was given are 3-6 month size. Here is one of many cute new looks...


Yes, I'm excited. Now leave me alone.

2 months

Little V is already two months old! I realized last month that I confused 4 weeks with her month birthday. Chalk it up to sleep deprivation. Oh well, I was only two days off so I doubt the way she looks changed that much in two days. But this time I got the date right. She is nine weeks today but was two months old on Saturday. We have her two month check up and vaccinations on Wednesday which I am dreading. Nobody likes shots! On Thursday I went to a lactation consultant and she was weighed. She's gained another two and a half pounds!! Now she is up to 11 pounds half an ounce. She's catching up to the other full-term babies her age.

Here's her two months photo shoot. She's so serious during picture time! The rest of the day she smiles (not all the time but every now and then) but I swear as soon as the camera comes out she refuses to coo and smile the way I always imagined babies would do. That will come though. So many things are different from how I imagined pre-baby. But I'm going to keep her. Victor heard her laugh for the first time yesterday! Hopefully there's lots more of that to come.

8 weeks

This week we are rocking the t-shirt and diaper look. Mostly just because I think it is cute and it's getting too cold to do it much longer. I love these t-shirts because they button instead of going over her head. No crying while getting her dressed! Today while we were doing tummy time she rolled over several more times. Unfortunately, she uses her new found powers to get out of tummy time. It's actually pretty funny... so stubborn for someone so young! I would just roll her back over and I guess she's building up her neck muscles while rolling over but this is a bad start in the mom v. daughter fights to come!

Trying to get a smile. I'm always a second too slow.



Topple over!

6 weeks

Vivian has started having more awake time lately. It's nice to finally see what her eyes look like! Mostly we just walk around outside but we are starting to try out different toys. Mostly she just looks at them and then ignores me.

3 weeks

This week Vivian is going through the three week growth spurt. At least, I hope that's what it is! She eats pretty much every hour - hour and a half from 7-11 am and 3-10:30 pm. So I get about 15 minutes an hour to get things accomplished... or just run to get some water. Other than that she is still a really good baby. She sleeps fairly well and doesn't cry too much. Though, she has learned to scream which has burned my eardrums out!
