My how time flies! Our second month with the Nugget has been wonderful. She continues to be a really easy baby, for which I am forever grateful and am sure will see the karmic justice for in her teen years. The literature they gave us at her doctor appointment says that babies of this age cry on average 2-3 hours a day. This child may give us 10 minutes of tears in a day, so I know we are extremely lucky. She also continues to sleep a ton, which is both fantastic (let's not look a gift horse in the mouth) but also had me wondering if it was normal. Her doctor said it was nothing to be concerned about as long as we had a few stretches of active, awake periods a day, which we do. She has given us a few 6+ hours of sleep at night (glorious!) and the rest of the time she will wake up just once, around 4ish, when she will quickly eat for about 10 minutes and then go back to sleep for another 3+ hours. So absolutely nothing to complain about there!
In the last few weeks she has also started smiling, which is just so awesome. I even caught a little dream giggle last night, and am so looking forward to when we get those wonderful belly laughs during the day! She has a beautiful smile and I really need to work on getting some good pictures of it.
