Baby Bird, you are two months old now! How you are changing and growing! At first you were so tiny and mostly slept. Over the past 8 weeks though, you have begun staying awake more. You follow people with your eyes. You have smiled. Tonight your mommy said you laughed out loud in your sleep! Your beautiful eyes are looking very blue. Grandma likes to think she can see some red in your hair in the sunlight. I guess we will see! It has made you really mad to stop eating and burp. Grandma thinks that is funny! You love getting your britches changed-you usually smile and coo as you stretch out. When you come to visit us, there are at any given time 4 of us wanting and waiting to hold you. You like to take little catnaps then wake up ready to socialize. You were in a routine and slept 7 hours at a time, but not sure you kept that up when you returned home. You are beginning to wear all the cute little outfits you have received as gifts. You look so pretty in all of them! You love to kick your legs, especially at bath time. We say that you are running and swimming. At your pediatrician appointment, you were showing off your kicking skills and your Doctor said you were very strong and good at exercising. Of course, we already knew you were very strong from holding your little head up and rearing it around! Your communication skills are wonderful, you respond to us and smile and try very hard to talk. Grandma bought you a toy for your car seat and you love looking at your friends, Tiger and Zebra. They are very entertaining! You have lots of fun in your bouncer seat and when you start your kicking, the seat goes crazy, which seems to make you extremely happy! Grandma is just amazed at how much you are growing and changing. You are 22 inches long and weigh over 10 pounds. We are really looking forward to the next time we can see you! All my love, Mimsi
