two months!



Our little turtlehead is all smiles (except at 7:30 in the evening, when she has to get all her extra energy out since she just sits around all day and looks so pretty). At the doctor's this morning, Abigail weighed 12 lbs, 14 oz., a lb. and 4 oz. less than Jack at the same time. With all the stress of traveling, especially without Mike for most of the time, I had some feeding problems, but all is well again now, and her legs are dimpling nicely.
I'm still waiting for a break-through in sleeping. She mostly sleeps all during the night, but still awakes every two to three hours to eat (her longest stretch has only been 5 hours), and occasionally thinks that if we'd like to get up to play with her at 5 in the morning, that would be alright (we don't do this).
Jack loves "Adda" (sometimes "Addie"), so much that he rolled on top of her this morning, to Abigail's sheer delight. He would lie on top of her with his appendages wrapped tightly around her if we would allow it. He's also fascinated by her Nuk (pacifier) and loves to suck on it upside-down.
Her favorite thing is hearing about what a pretty girl she is. That's all I told her during the photo shoot.

She certainly IS a pretty girl. She must be a baby who loves hearing the truth! ;)

She is already getting so big. Two months already. What day was she born on? Jonah is 9 months old today (on the 7th), so they must be right at 7 months apart!
