Twelve Weeks: Back to Work

Becca is now twelve weeks old, and on Monday I went back to work. She isn't in daycare yet - Stephen is taking off 4 weeks to stay with her, and she'll start daycare the middle of next month. But for now, she's still at home.

This week she started to figure out how to roll over, but she isn't very consistent with it yet. She's holding her head up for a few seconds at a time, which was just long enough to take this picture in a Bumbo seat a few days ago:

Eleven Weeks: Follow Up

She did fine with her shots - a bit fussier than usual afterwards, but still sleeping fine and no fever. We also learned that our two and a half month old is apparently the size of a four month. At 13 pounds 5 ounces, she's in the 95th percentile for weight. Her length and head size both are in the 75th percentile. Overall, she's just a big baby! The doctor said she seems healthy and isn't concerned. She goes back for more shots in two months.

Eleven Weeks Old: Time for Shots

Becca is eleven weeks old today. She goes back to the doctor this afternoon for her first round of shots - we're not looking forward to it!

Here's some pictures from yesterday. She LOVES her play mat, and spends a lot of time on it.

Two Months and One Week

Happy Fourth of July: Two Months Old

Becca was two months old yesterday. She has slept through the night, in her crib, for over a week now. The only downside is that she sleeps a little less during the day, and gets pretty tired and fussy some evenings. Even with that, she's doing really well. She still isn't completely holding her head up, although she does pretty good if she has just a little help. She's smiling a lot, too.

Here's a picture from today!

Eight Weeks Old

She'll be eight weeks old tomorrow. A few nights ago we moved her from the bassinet in our room to her crib in her own room, and she's doing great. The last two nights she has slept all night long (from about 9:30 to 5:30), so she must not mind it! Here's some pictures of her playing on her activity mat.

Something close to a smile...

It may be a while before we can truly capture it with a camera, but she's starting to give little smiles at us, which is really adorable. She's also getting better at holding her head up, but still has a little trouble controlling it. She's making progress, though. Here's a picture from this week!
