My Bailey is 2 months now!

So as of 10:26 p.m. last night and my baby turned two months old. These last two months have been the happiest of my life. I fall in love with Bailey all over again every time I look at her. She is getting so big. We have her 2 month appointment Thursday and she has to get more shots. It makes me sad to think of more shots. She got poked so many times in the hospital that I just hate for her to get more. We will make it through though and I will update everyone her weight and stuff Thursday.

Jake has been absolutely amazing learning how to be a dad. He is a natural. He loves to play with her and love on her. After he hasn't held her for a while, he just goes and gets her just to look at her. I see them together and my heart just melts. Hearing him crack up at her smiling and cooing just makes me smile! Seeing him as a dad - it's like I'm falling in love with him all over again! (awwe) We've been together 11 years and I still love to love him!

For me, I have started working again, which is hard but nice to finally get a paycheck. It is so hard to leave her at night and then be away from her all day while I'm sleeping. After the st night of working, I figured I would just sleep when B sleeps...Oh that didn't go so good. She slept like 20 minutes at a time and fussed the rest of the time. Needless to say, I was up for 30 hours straight on 3 hours of sleep! I was exhausted and very emotional. I kept telling Bailey that I am a good mom and a really good nurse, but I couldn't do both! Of course, I would choose bailey over work, but life would be HARD! When Jake got home, it was decided that I needed help and had to find a babysitter.

Luckily, I have awesome friends who helped me out tremendously the next few weeks, watching B so I could sleep. During those 2 weeks, I got in touch with my best friends grandma, who runs an in-home daycare. She started there Monday (the 18th) and did great. I am really happy that she is going there because I trust her and I sleep better knowing she is safe.

So, at 2 months, my Bailey is smiling at us and cooing and i swear trying to laugh. She will do this coughing thing with she gets excited. I know that she trying to laugh. She is so happy in the mornings. Her eyes just light up and she is just all smiles and looks around at everything. She is getting so big. She sleeps from about 8:45-7 the next morning and only wakes up once, normally between 3 and 5. It's not bad. I haven't had a full night sleep since I was about 7 months pregnant. I'm getting used to it tho and can totally function on 5 hours of sleep! We read every night before bed.

Okay, this is all for now. I'll be back Thursday to tell you about Dr. appointment and will then post some pics.
