What I love about you at 2 months

Dear Sadie, my sweet girl, you are two months old today, and here's what I love about you...

  • You calm down easily... Most of the time
  • Watching you learn how to smile
  • Watching you when something catches your eye and you stare at it forever
  • Hearing daddy sing and talk in baby voices to you
  • Enjoying you get mesmerized by things
  • How your newborn outfits finally fit you at one month old, and sadly how fast your are outgrowing your newborn outfits
  • When you raise your head to look at the world around you
  • How your yawns make me yawn
  • How your smiles make me smile
  • Your noises: poots, sneezes, yawns, grunts, blowouts, giggles
  • When you "squeak"
  • Our laps walking around the pool to calm you down
  • When you breathe in my ear
  • Holding you while we swing on the porch swing
  • That you are already independent in your own way
  • That you love being on your changing table
  • Dressing you up in cute outfits
  • Taking tons of pictures of you, and you actually smiling for them
  • How curious you are about your surroundings
  • Wiping your tears away
  • Wrapping you up in my arms
  • When I know you're at the end of a growth spurt
  • When I touch your chin and nose while making funny noises to make you smile
  • When you look up at me while you're feeding
  • The way you're confidently holding your head up already
  • When you're in a "cozy" mood
  • How everyone says how beautiful you are, and they mean it
  • How you reach out for the monkey and the rings on your activity mat
  • The way you make grammi and granddad light up when they're around you
  • How great you are on car-rides
  • How you've taken to a very specific paci
  • The way you look when you're swaddled, like a little burrito
  • When you smile at me, like you know who I am
  • That you're on the verge of giggling
  • Watching you grow before my very eyes

Love, your mommy
