Letter to my 2 month old.

Dear Amelia,

You have had such a fun and exciting 2nd month! You have learned new things, met new people and experienced so much in such a short time. This month:

• You made your first ever road trip. Over Labor Day weekend you went to Ardmore, which was your first long trip in the car, and you did so great! You love to look out the window at everything passing by. You slept most of the way and enjoyed the ride. While we were in Ardmore you got to meet Uncle Adam, Uncle Chris, Aunt Jess and cousins Braden and Austin for the first time. You also met Great Grandma and Grandpa Powell.
  

• You made your first trip alone with Mommy. We went back to Ardmore to say goodbye to Uncle Adam before he went back to South Korea for another six months. He is currently in his first year in the Air Force. Again you were so good on the ride down. During this visit you also went to Texas for the first time when we took a little girls trip with Grams to Sherman.
  

• You started sleeping through the night! Yay! You were 5 weeks old the first time you slept through the night and you have doing so consistently since you were 7 weeks old. You usually go to bed somewhere between 9:30 - 11:00 and wake up between 7:00 - 8:00, averaging around 9 hours a night.
  

• You stopped taking regular daytime naps. Evidently you decided that if you are going to sleep all night you do not need to sleep during the day. But, I'm certainly not going to complain because, oh how I love sleeping at night again.
  

• You have become so alert and interactive. You love to talk and interact with everyone. You love to smile and coo and giggle. Right now your favorite thing is the ceiling fan. You can spend forever watching and smiling at it.
  

At your 2 month well baby appointment:

• you weighed 11 lbs. (50th percentile)
  
• you were 24" long (95th percentile) wow!
  

You are growing and changing everyday. Everyday you do a little bit more and it is so exciting to watch you learn. I can see why everyone says it all goes by so fast. I already miss your tiny newborn days, but I love what every new day brings. All I can do is savor each moment of every day, treasure the memories and look forward to your future. I love spending my days with you, my sweet sweet baby girl.
