Norah continues to be a really great baby. She's usually most content in the mornings and snoozes them away in her swing or my arms if Asa is otherwise occupied. She's started smiling more (especially in the mornings) and I'll catch her smiling and cooing at her reflection above the swing. She's quite fond of herself- and I don't blame her! Right before her 2 month check up we thought she scratched herself on the bridge of her nose. We didn't mention it to the doctor since we thought it was a scratch. However, turns out baby Norah developed a birthmark. Based on what we've read, it will likely go away over time but I've already grown to love it. :)
Also, at her two month check up, Norah was getting some vaccines and I was comforting (holding her still) her when Asa announced he had to pee. I told him to hang on a second. He said "look Mama, pee pee." I turned around and he had pissed ALL over the floor in the exam room. Like a whole lot of pee. I told the nurse, who was still administering shots to Norah, and she turned to look. Her response "wow." Yup. Good times.
Anyway, here are her 2 month stats:
Height: 22 1/2" (55%)
Weight: 11#1oz (55%)
HC: 14 3/4" (37%)
Then, on January 2nd, Norah was 3 months! She is sooo smiley and has one dimple that melts me. She makes and holds eye contact and just smiles. It makes you feel so loved and trusted. We're getting up about twice a night but still have no trouble getting right back to sleep. She really enjoys her swing and her activity mat. Her cooing is super cute too. She'll coo in response to whatever you say and holds little baby conversations. :)
Norah will not however drink formula! I explained that I wasn't trying to wean her from breast feeding, I'm simply looking for a break every now and then but she's not having it...
Norah also dislikes loud environments which is the complete opposite of baby Asa. She was pretty grumpy at Mimi's house over Christmas and the only explanation is all the people and noise. (On a bright note, she slept sooo well on the trip and even slept through the night a few times). She also dislikes restaurants and most other unfamiliar and loud places. My social life is non existent. Ha ha.
I do love this baby girl!
Notice the birthmark :)
