Erica is still growing fast. She's a champ eater, with the bottle as well as breastfeeding, and it's showing on the scale. At her 2-month visit she was 13lbs 12oz and 25 inches long. That's three inches in a month! No wonder she's busting out of all the three month clothes. Almost everything she wears is 6 month size now.
She is cooing all the time, laughing often, and interacting with us and her toys. She's learned that kicking makes her bouncy chair toys move so she talks to them and kicks again. She loves her sister and looks around the room for her when she hears her voice. Amelia will say, "Erica is happy" and Erica will laugh. She loves books-especially read by Amelia-and listening to songs.
She sleeps so well that I feel guilty about not being sleep-deprived with a newborn. We have been blessed with two good sleepers and I pray they stay that way. We love her so much and to sound cliche-can't imagine life without her.
Just for fun, here are some comparisons with Amelia. Erica has looked older in every picture.
Two Months (Erica is 13lbs 12oz, 25in; Amelia was 11lbs 9oz, 23.5in)
One Month! (Erica- 11lbs 8oz; Amelia- 9lbs 11oz)
One Week (Erica- 9lbs; Amelia- 7lbs 11oz)
