2 Months - 2.21.13

Payton Rose was two months a couple of weeks ago (I know this is coming late!). We are more and more amazed at our little one! It's beyond crazy how only a few months ago we were imagining what our daughter would be like. What we have learned so far is that she knows what she wants and we should do it when she wants something (eating, being changed, being held how she wants to be held, etc). Our lives are all about her!

Payton and Mommy are becoming adventurous. We go out most days for some errands or for drives (Payton loves the car rides). We have had more visits to Adornments and have added some new places: Grammy's house, Jess & Scotts, the Nangle's, Aunt Beth & Dave's, and Grandmom & Grandpop's house. Payton has even been out to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings to meet our friends the Greenberg's, to Rod's for brunch, and to Casa Bella for Auntie's birthday dinner (where Daddy gave Payton her first real bottle).

Over the past few weeks we have also had a weekly weight check at Dr. Gotfried's office.  Payton hasn't gained weight but has gained some length. Payton has been sleeping between 4-7 hours at night, but is not a huge fan of naps.

The animals are still great with her. Wilfred checks in on her when she is in her car seat or nap nanny or you can find him at the feet of who is holding her.  Marley gets up in the middle of the night to walk to where Payton's cradle is (next to Mommy) to make sure she is there. When she isn't in the cradle he looks for Mommy holding Payton. If Payton isn't in the bedroom, he paces from her cradle to his bed.

In preparation for St. Patrick's day, Payton agreed to a photo shoot... here's to being lucky!!

And this is one of my favorite's... Taken by Rob at Michael's first birthday party!
