2 months old and growing strong

Mary-Brenna is now 2 months old! She is getting so big and is learning to do so much. She is very strong, and can hold her head up. She has found her fingers, and loves to chew on them. This results in a very drooly baby. She is so sweet.

Mary-Brenna had her two month doctors appointment, which meant shots (no fun). She did so well. I was so proud of her little self. She also was weighed and measured during that visit. She is now 11 lbs 10 oz. and 23 inches long. These numbers are around the 70th percentile, which her doctor is really happy about.

My sweet little girl is also a very talkative little girl. She loves to tell Grandma, Papa and I various stories, ranging from very happy to very mad. She is getting better at focusing on different things like faces and toys. She now has a play mat with toys that hang above her. She loves to lay there for a while and check out the different toys we hang above her.

Mary-Brenna has finally developed a fussy time. She really doesn't like the hours between 9 and 11 at night. My mom has been awesome in wanting to help get Mary-Brenna to sleep at night, but these past few nights Mary-Brenna is having none of it. I feel honored that she wants me, but it is still hard when I am so very tired and she won't settle down for Grandma. The only upside is that when she finally does fall asleep, she stays asleep for at lease 6 hours.

She likes to show us her attitude and we love her even more for it. I am excited to see what this next month brings us! Love you my dear sweet girl!
