Two Months Old!

Sonya Joy turned 2 months old on the 20th! She has grown so much! She is now a heavy 8lbs 6oz, and is 21 inches in length. Her little eyes follow people when they enter the room, especially if it's Mommy, since she's the one who feeds her. She's not as fussy as she was when we first brought her home, but she certainly is opinionated!
She makes the funniest faces, and I have decided that she must take after her Auntie Kristen, the only person I know who can get away with making funny faces in serious situations - like passport photos... If so, we're going to have our hands full!

She's already sleeping through the night! Going down at around 9:30, she will usually sleep until at least 4:00, sometimes later. This makes us very happy parents - especially Daddy who usually has to get up between 3am to 4am.

Our little girl is still wearing newborn clothes, but will probably grow out of them by next week. It makes me a little sad that she's growing so fast, but at the same time, we are so thankful for our healthy little girl. The doctors are amazed at how fast she's growing, and the cardiologist said that she won't need to come in for another three months, since it looks like the hole in her heart is closing up! We're so thankful for all the prayers God has answered concerning this little girl!

Sonya has let us know that she does not like naps! Not even when she's tired. But sometimes when she's tired of being held, she will let me put her down on the bed and will sleep as long as I lay down next to her. Those are pretty special times for me. And let's face it, what mom is going to say no to a nap?!
Dearest Little Girl, 
These last two months have been special ones for us! We love to see your little personality develop!
We think you are perfect in every way - even though you are a bit opinionated. 
We pray for you every day to grow up healthy, happy, and with a hearty desire to serve the Savior. 
This is a month that we set aside to say thanks to God for all of His blessings to us. We truly do have so much to be thankful for! But this month I thank Him especially for you! You are our precious treasure! Know that you are loved now and forever! - Mommy and Daddy
