2 months

Goldie's 2 month checkup:
weight: 12.3 lbs (70%)
height: 22 in (61%)
head: 39.6 cm (85%)


She went to the doctor's yesterday for 3 shots... it was literally the saddest thing ever. She was looking up at me just crying and it kind of made me tear up.

 I have loved learning how to become her mama. I am learning to function with less sleep, and spend my days just staring at goldie and talking to her, and of course, if you haven't seen my instagram, taking pictures of her! She is so dang cute, and has the cutest littler personality.

Goldie loves:

- bath time. She loves to kick her feet and lick to try to taste the soap

- being naked, which includes diaper changes. She cheeses the whole time

- standing up or sitting up... she thinks she's way bigger than she really is.

- talking and smiling, batting eyelashes.. to die for!

- sucking her hands and binki... she always needs something in her mouth.

- her tongue. She has found it, loves sticking it out.

- kisses... If you like slobbery, open-mouth kisses... Goldie gives some good ones!

- holding hands

- car rides

- eating of course.


Goldie doesn't like:

- not being looked at while she's awake. home girl loves attention.

- getting dressed

- sleeping by herself (I know... but I don't mind)

- being swaddled


Now get ready for a picture overload!!

all smiles: one month

I can't believe another year has come and gone... and what a year it has been! So many fun things have happened, but Goldie has by far been the highlight. I can't believe she is now 6 weeks... my goodness she is growing up way too fast. She has so much personality already!

- super smiley. She'll smile so big it shows off her under eye dimple... I have the same one!
- loves to be talked to anything that keeps the attention on her
- sweet personality
- loves to cuddle
- snorts when hungry (it's the cutest thing ever :)
- gets super mad when she isn't fed right when she's hungry
- so expressive and her eyebrows tell a story.
- loves being naked and getting diaper changed
- goes through 10 minute stretching routine every time she wakes up.. it's hilarious
-  desperately trying to find thumb to suck.. but ends up punching herself in the face
- loves getting kisses- she thinks it's so funny
- eating is the best part of her day
- enjoys ca rides
- lifts up head.. so strong!
- loves noise and light
- follows voices and people
- still figuring out that she should be asleep at 3 a.m.

I can't believe I am her mom... she makes my days so much more exciting. Her smile melts my heart and makes sleepless nights totally worth it. She is wrapped around our finger. Time needs to slow down now! I love her so much and feel so blessed to be Goldie's mama.
