Kloey is already two months old and our life is finding its new normal. Let’s start with her stats. Kloey is 23.3 inches long, which is the 89th percentile. She weighs in at 11 pounds 12 ounces, which is the 61st percentile. And finally, her head circumference is 28 1/2 centimeters, which is the 50th percentile. She is growing perfectly on target! There are definitely some fun things Kloey is learning to do. She smiles socially in response to people- and not just mommy! She likes to watch peoples’ faces. She follows objects from side to side and she is learning to hold her head up. We need more tummy time, which she kind of likes! She is cooing with vowels and I’m pretty sure she is starting to giggle! She is also gaining some control over those elusive limbs she’s got! And the biggest news that I have been waiting a few weeks to share, so as not to curse myself, is that Kloey is sleeping through the night!!!! She takes anywhere from 3 to 5 ounces of Mommy milk at 9:30 PM and she sleeps until 7:00 AM!! She has always been a good sleeper, so I have been really lucky. From 2 weeks on she only ever woke up once to feed. She’s been sleeping later and later and around 7 weeks she started sleeping all the way until 7:00 AM. I really don’t think I could make it through having an infant and toddler without the sleep she is giving me! While I can brag about her sleep, all is not rosey all of the time. Miss Kloey does not like to be put down… at all!! If she is awake- which she is a lot of the day because she sleeps all night- she wants Mommy holding her. Sometimes it’s hard to get that daily shower in or finish the dishes, or any other of my chores. Luckily she loves the Bjorn and I pretty much go through my entire day either holding her or having this nearly 12 pound child strapped to my chest! I think it’s time for a Mommy massage… or some chiropractic adjusting!
Kloey, we are so thrilled with how you are growing and advancing. I know it’s only been two months, but could you slow down? You’re growing up way too fast!
She is the cutest and I agree she is growing up way to quickly!! I love the picture of her sleeping in the blanket with her hands up, its my favorite!! Cant wait to cuddle her again soon 🙂 xoxoox
