Eva Updates



Little miss Eva had her two month check up last week and she is still a peanut, weighing in at a whopping 9 lbs 14 oz, falling in the 10th percentile.  Liam always measured 80-90th percentile for weight and height, so Eva is a bit on the other end of the spectrum when it comes to her size.  She is barely fitting into her 0-3 month clothes, but is getting there.  A lot of the clothes I bought her for summer will probably go completely unworn because by the time she fits into them it won't be quite warm enough to justify wearing them.

She really makes you work for those smiles, but does smile a lot at the sound of Greg's voice.  I love hearing her giggle in her sleep, but she has yet to giggle when she's awake.  She's not an extremely high maintenance baby, but also not super easy going.  It depends on the day whether she prefers to be held all day or is fine to be left playing on the floor or swing.  Kind of like her personality, her sleeping is a bit sporadic.  Some days she literally sleeps all day and will also sleep fine at night, other days she sleeps for a total of two hours.  I've tried to get a consistent routine and schedule going, but it's difficult to keep a tired baby awake and have just allowed to sleep and play whenever her little heart desires.  On a typical  night she goes to bed between 8-9pm and will get up once to eat, usually around 4am, but she has slept through the night a couple times and has also had rougher nights here and there.  Again, very sporadic!  Just like her brother, she loves car rides and often falls asleep on the drive.  It's a pretty consistent occurrence to arrive home and have both kids snoozing.

We love her to pieces and love that she is getting to an age where she is a little more interactive.  

I am off now to go blow on Liam's soup since he apparently cannot fill up his lungs and blow air out his mouth.  Toddler meltdowns are real.
