Nora Mae is two months old. She is such a blessing to our family. We love her beyond measure!
Eat: Nora is still a great eater. She feeds every three-four hours during the day and once in the night. I'd like her to have one bottle of pumped milk a day but sometimes we aren't able to make that happen.
Sleep: She sleeps like a champ! Nora naps in the morning, afternoon and evening and sleeps from about 8:30 PM- 8AM feeding once around 4:30. There have been a few occasions that she doesn't wake to eat until 6. I'm hoping this becomes more of a trend, otherwise, no complaints!
Play: Nora stays awake for about an hour after each feeding. She enjoys her play mat, reading books and she is usually cooperative during tummy time.
Measurements: Big girl is 11lbs. 13oz. She is 24.5 inches tall. Nora is near the 100th percentile for height and head size, and the 75th for weight.
Brother: Thomas is really starting to enjoy Nora more now that she is awake more often. He always lets me know when her eyes are open. He likes to hold her and when she starts to get too heavy he asks to lay down and "hold" her. (I lay her next to him) If her Nuk falls out he is quick to help her get it back in. If she cries in the car he lets me know that she needs her sucky back. He hasn't been hitting her nearly as often which is a huge relief. I am excited to watch this relationship blossom.
Daddy: I love seeing Nora's big smile with her cute little dimples. Her facial expressions are so
deliberate; I can tell when she is perplexed, happy, or hungry. I feel like she is growing so much faster than Thomas did, but I guess it's all about perspective. Time flies with two kids!
You have a beautiful family!
