Elise is 2 Months Old!

Wow, Elise is already 2 months old!  She went in Monday for her check-up and vaccinations and was officially proclaimed a colicky baby.  (Evenings are killer, but I'm hoping we'll see some improvement in the coming weeks.  Either that, or I'm going to end up with tennis elbow from carrying her around, walking, and bouncing so much.)  Here are some 2 month stats for our little cutie:

  • 22.5 inches long
  • 11 lbs
  • Mostly wearing size 3 Months in clothes, though some are slightly too small and others are still too big
  • Has already rolled over once!
  • Starting to smile and coo more everyday
  • Won't take a pacifier and isn't so great with a bottle either, but we're working on it for Mommy's sake!
  • Still has all her honey brown hair
  • Eyes are still dark blue, though they're a bit lighter than when she was born
  • Definitely a wiggler
  • Likes to look at the fan in our bedroom
  • Gassiest baby ever
  • We're still calling her Elise for now and will use Elle some when she gets older 
  • Wants to sleep on Mommy or Daddy, despite our attempts at the crib
  • Loves to be in the Baby Bjorn or Ergo
  • Doesn't like the baby swing, but likes the bouncy seat if she's in a good mood
  • Can pick her head up 90 degrees, but her neck is still wobbly 
Here's a little 2 month video.  About halfway through you can see her smile and talk a bit!
