2 months old!

This kid is growing too fast!  She has passed the 2 month mark and continues to eat like a champ and grow like a weed, despite having a bad run in with RSV and now reflux.  She is interacting a lot more with us and her surroundings.  She loves her play mat and bouncy seat.  She is learning pretty well how to let us know when she doesn't like something!  She also has the sweetest smile! We are seeing a lot more of that smile regularly!

I will be returning to work in about a week, so we are in transition mode as we prep her and us.  It will be interesting to see how it all goes to say the least!  We've been working at having her on more of a schedule and breaking the swaddle since she will be in daycare.  Now that we are getting a better grip on the tummy issues, I hope this becomes a little easier!

By the looks of her you wouldn't tell, but her 2nd month started out pretty rough!  She had RSV and was attached to a nebulizer machine for almost 2 weeks (every 4 hours most of that time).  Blessedly she responded well and she was spared some of the complications.  She did have some pretty worried parents though and a couple of pretty pitiful weeks!!  Once she started feeling better, the medication made her one jittery mess!  So needless to say, we did a little happy dance when we were able to finally stop treatments!  After that run in, we hibernated for a little bit waiting for that magical 8 week mark (and shots).
