Our baby girl is 8 weeks old and quickly approaching the 2 month mark. I can't believe how fast time is flying by and how much older and bigger Avery looks each day.
The big milestone for this week, is that we moved Avery out of the bassinet and she is now laying flat in the bottom of the pack-n-play. We did this for several reasons: she is getting too long for the bassinet, we hope to get her comfortable with this to allow for an easy transition to her crib in a few weeks and most of all it allows us to set up her monitor and the sensor/breathing pad. As with Kensley, Avery prefers her tummy so this allows us to put her on her tummy and us to sleep a little easier. Avery seems to be sleeping better now that she's on her tummy and is giving us longer stretches in between feedings. We can only hope that before long she is sleeping through the night! She has also been taking her naps in her pack-n-play! Dare I also mention that for the second afternoon in a row BOTH girls are napping at the SAME TIME! Yay!
Little Avery is pretty much completely out of her newborn clothes and is wearing 0-3 month sizes and even a few 3 month sizes! She is growing so quickly!
She is much more aware and has just recently seemed to take an interest in her sister. The other day Kensley was standing in front of Avery talking to her and hugging her over and over again. Avery just stared at her and I think she is recognizing her voice (as Kensley jabbers all the time). I'm looking forward to the days when Avery is entertained watching Kensley play.
Here are a few pictures of our little 8 week old (and her big sister).
