Two Months

Today the girls are two months and it's unbelievable how quickly time is flying by! We went to the doctor this morning for their check up and they, once again, surprised us with how well they're doing!

Sophia:

5 lbs 13 oz
17 3/4 inches

1 Month:
7 lbs 13 oz
20 3/4 inches

2 Months:
10 lbs 1 oz
21 1/2 inches

Savannah:

6 lbs 5 oz
18 inches

1 Month:
8 lbs 5 oz
21 1/2 inches

2 Months:
10 lbs 6 oz
22 inches

I can't believe how fast they are growing! The doctor said they are around the 50th percentile for their adjusted age and they are completely proportional :) In other words, they are perfect!
They are growing so fast they are already out of newborn diapers and out of newborn clothes! Before the girls were born I washed ALL of the newborn clothes and organized them in the dresser…too bad they didn't even come close to wearing half of the clothes! I try to keep it as simple and easy as possible, so half the time I keep them in jammies all day :) I only really get them dressed up if it's a holiday or special outing! Plus the more I change them, the more laundry I have…so I keep them in an outfit as long as possible! It usually doesn't last longer than 24 hours since they tend to spit up just enough to need a new outfit some point during the day. And our laundry…no joke I could easily do a load for the girls every single day! I try to go two or three days to space it out, but it's constant laundry! Once they are out of the newborn/spit up/blow out stage, hopefully the laundry calms down a little.


The girls are definitely starting to stay awake for longer stretches AND they are sleeping longer at night!!! The past few nights the girls have gone almost 7 hours between feedings! It's been AMAZING! I can't believe how great I feel during the day…even though I still get interrupted sleep, I'm feeling pretty good! Also, yesterday was my last check up with my OBGYN ~ I'm officially cleared to start working out again…so Jonathan and I are going to (try and) start working out every week together. I feel like I lost a ton of muscle since I wasn't allowed to work out while I was pregnant, so it will probably take me a while to build up my endurance and strength.

It's funny how at only 2 months Sophia and Savannah's little personalities are already shining through! Sophia is going to be like Jayden…a little firecracker full of energy and I can tell she will definitely keep us on our toes! Our little Savannah is our mellow babe ~ she just goes with the flow and likes to observe everything around her. Yesterday when we were out for a walk, she just sat there with her eyes wide open taking it all in…and I think she smiled at me for the first time! Don't get me wrong, both girls smile in their sleep all the time, but this was a smile right at me! And I LOVED it! I was just strolling along talking to her and she gave me the most beautiful bright smile! The people around me probably thought I was a crazy mama because I immediately went crazy talking to her ~ there's nothing like seeing your baby girl smile at you for the first time :)

Savannah our little sleepy head and Sophia not wanting to miss a thing!



Cuddle time with mommy & daddy <3


Last weekend was the first morning we had a FULL bed in the morning! All 5 of us lounged in bed and it was AWESOME! It's going to be so much fun when our girls are older and come walking into our room in the morning for cuddle time! 


Awww I love being a mommy ~ there's nothing like it in the world <3


Mom! She's on my side of the pillow!


Double Trouble!


Happy 2 Months Sophia & Savannah!! 
We love you to pieces!!
XOXOXOXO
