Savannah Faye is officially 2 months old! And as I write this she is 11 weeks! Crazy how time flies with two kids keeping us busy! We went to a Montgomery Biscuits game - that was a lot of fun! We also went to the lake with each of our families two weekends in a row this month! We are so excited the weather is warming up so that we can make those trips! Hope the summer is full of them! We actually did not do much else this month other than things around the house. Daniel finished up the semester and is getting ready to teach his summer classes! We are planning to go to the lake again in May and to the mountains - then south for Lee's swim lessons! May and June will be busy for sure!!!

Savannah Faye Update:
Savannah Faye had her 2 month check up on April 18 - she weighed in at 12 pounds 4 ounces and 24 inches long! That puts her at the 75th and 99th percentiles for weight and height!!! I just moved her to 3-6 month pajamas because she is so tall! She is a great sleeper - going anywhere from 7-10 hours without eating at night and most of that sleeping! I usually feed her between 10:30 and 11:30 and she goes to sleep not long after that (if she wasn't already asleep and I woke her up!) and sleeps until 7:30-8:30! She is a very happy and content little girl, rarely fussing! She loves the bouncer, swing and the play mat (for a short time), she is holding her head up really well and loves to sit up. Sometimes she will fuss if I am holding her and I lean her back because she wants to sit up! She smiles all the time, follows us around the room with her eyes and we have even gotten a few giggles! We love you sweet girl!!

SMILES!

"Say What??"

Many faces of Savannah Faye and trying out the bumbo for a few minutes!

Two month photo shoots are exhausting!

When I took her out of the car seat to be weighed at the doctors office for her two month shots she just laid there spread out - that was good sleep!

Holding her bottle on her own (this really did not work haha)

This little girl's smile is contagious!!!

Lee Update:
Lee loves his little sister and is always checking on us "Are you okay mommy? I just checking on you." - then goes back to whatever he was doing :). Lee's turtle Snappy spent the night one night at the library - we got to go the next day and see all the fun he had overnight - what a great idea from the library for the kids! We have started doing a little "school" at home during the week...he keeps telling me "the bus pick me up and take me to school", but I told him we were gonna do school at home! I plan to start doing some preschool with him in the fall - it has been fun planning and gathering different resources to use! Now I just pray I can implement it and be disciplined enough to set time aside for us to learn! Lee loves to help me water my flowers and check on our garden as well as help me with chores. He LOVES to sword fight so we bought him some light sabers and some foam swords to play with - its a lot of fun to watch him and his imagination! We love you Lee!!!

Lee wanted to "tutor math" one afternoon!

We have been working on the letter A, circles, the number 1 and counting to ten! He loves "school", I hope he always loves learning!

Can you spot Snappy and all the fun he had? Apparently he was very eager to hear the story before bedtime at the library!

My flower planting garden buddy!

Sick day lego building!

Lee loves to visit the fountain in downtown Opelika - it is purple here for Relay for Life!

My muscles are bigger than yours! Love this big boy!

Time flies when you are having fun - and a busy family :)

Adjusting to life with two kids has gone pretty well. Lee loves his sister and loves to "pet her head" or tell me "my sister wants to see me". Of course it is usually when she is asleep!

We had a lot going on in March - family came to visit and help us with projects (cleaning our back yard out, redoing our dining room among a few things!) We also went to the zoo during Daniel's spring break, had an Easter Egg Hunt with our friends, and traveled home for Easter!

Savannah Faye:
Savannah Faye had her first month doctors appointment on March 22 - she was just over a month old! She measured 22 inches long (83%) and weighed 10 pounds 13 ounces (85%). That is almost two pounds in one month! We have already had to move to the 0-3 month clothes! I was able to catch her first intentional smile on 3/25/18! She is smiling and cooing so much more since then. She loves the bouncer and sometimes laying on her tummy. She is really good at trying to hold her head up for a little while before starting to bob some! She is eating about every 3 hours except at night where she is going anywhere from 6-9 hours! She is sleeping on average 6-8 hours at night too! This mommy is thankful for that! She is a sweet baby and only cries when hungry or sleepy - and not for long then either!

Playing and her first bottle!

All Smiles!!!

ONE MONTH OLD!

Lee:
Lee is so much fun these days! His imagination has really started to show and he pretends to be a puppy some days and a frog other days - and talks non stop in between! He was able to visit his grandparents for a week before Easter - he loves to go to Gigi/Gpa and DibDab/HeeHaw's houses - he always comes back with fun stories of what all they did! It is great that he gets to go spend time with them and his cousins! He loves to jump on his trampoline with me or his daddy!
