Happy Memorial Day and 2 Month Birthday

Happy 2 Month Birthday, Sophie!!

DeeRee and PopPop love you!

Happy 2 Month Birthday, Sophie! We celebrated very informally by having Pop Pop and Dee Ree over for dinner. Together we all sang to Sophie (while she was sleeping) and then took some photos of her with her strawberry shortcake out on the deck (though she was sort of in night-time meltdown mode by then).

Sophie had a good weekend with a whole extra day with Daddy! We all enjoyed the extra time together. Sophie is doing really well and had many milestone moments this weekend. She went to the Lansdowne Farmers Market for the first time and mostly slept in her stroller. She also went in the Baby Bjorn several times and even fell asleep in in a few times! I wish I had her in this for our zoo trip on Friday but at least we know we can bring it for our next zoo trip this coming weekend. We also got an excercise ball from Target on Sunday (while Dee Ree watched Sophie so Jim and I could run several errands) and Sophie loves being bounced by someone sitting on it. This is a nice break from the standing up bouncing we've been doing for the last two months since previously you could never sit down and bounce her. Finally, she is really spending more time in her Baby Papasan (vibrating chair) and even has slept in it a few times! This is great progress! She is still um, shall we say "challenged" when it comes to taking naps during the day but her night sleeping is going really well so we really can't complain. She is definitely crying less than before though she still has tough patches. She is so huge and I can't wait to see how much weight and length she has gained in the past month when we take her in to the pediatrician for her two month check-up tomorrow.
