Lucy Kate- month 2

Dear Lucy-


Today I was thinking about your name.  Everyone always comments on it and wonders where it came from.  It started a few years ago, long before we ever knew you would be here!  Your daddy has always loved The Chronicles of Narnia, and I've always liked the name Lucy.  It was perfect.  Anyway, your name means "light."  Little did we know just how much we would need a little light at the end of a very dark year.


You light up my heart everyday.  You've started to smile big when I come into the room and start talking to you.  Nothing melts this mommy's heart more than that.  You're also finding your sweet little voice and I love it when you "talk" to me.  Precious.


You are sleeping really good at nights- sometimes 6 hour stretches- but you are not a fan of naps!  You only like to sleep if I'm holding you... which I love to do!  You eat every 2.5-3 hours, and your spitting up seems to be doing better.  You wear 3 month clothes, and size 1 diapers.


This month you got to do several firsts.  You stayed in the nursery at church on Sunday and did great.  The ladies loved you and said you are the sweetest thing!  This also means that you finally decided to start drinking out of a bottle.  I started watching Ethan and Elliana a couple of days a week, so that makes those days much more exciting!  You also got to meet Crosby- a whole post about that is coming soon!


2 month stats:
-Weight: 12 pounds, 6 ounces- 90%
-Length: 23.25 inches- 90%

I love you so much, my little goose!  I thank God for bringing this beautiful light to us everyday.

Love, Mommy
