Dear Emmerson--Two Months

Dear Emmerson,

Happy two months, baby doll! You are celebrating today by partying in California for Chris and Becca's wedding! Everyone is so excited to meet you, and you are the best little travel companion. Flying six hours across the country seemed like nothing compared to your 15 1/2 hour flight from Mumbai!

You are such a love and everyday I feel like you're changing and learning new things. You love to smile and your eyes are so bright and alert. At your eight week appointment you weighed in at 9 pounds, 10 oz, 21.5 inches long. Your weight is in the 24th percentile, height in the 16th percentile and head in the 64th percentile! :) We happen to  think you are the most adorable little being we've ever laid eyes on. 

At two months, you love: being held, worn in the carrier, mama's milk, sleeping on mommy's chest, being swaddled at night, smiling, baths, looking at patterns, singing songs, listening to music with daddy.

You dislike: tummy time, not being held. :)

You are such a happy baby. You've been sleeping for longer stretches at night, and have given us as much as 5 1/2 hours in a row. You're very expressive and we can see your sweet personality shining through already. 

You've moved into size 1 diapers and some 0-3 month clothes. The newborn clothes still fit but are a little snug on you, but the 0-3 are still a little big! I'm having the best time dressing you in sweet little outfits all day everyday. Tonight is your first wedding, and we are so excited to spend the week in California meeting family and celebrating your first Thanksgiving!

                         

We are thankful for every minute with you. Keep growing big and strong! We're so proud to be your parents.You light up our whole world. We love you, we love you, we love you so, dear baby.

Love,

Mommy
