All About Allie

At two months old, we are still every bit in love with Allie. She is such a sweet baby and we are all a little obsessed with her. She loves to lie on the ground and look at the ceiling fan or any lights. Allie feels left out if we leave her in her swing or in the other room, especially when we're eating. She will start shrieking until we go back to get her. Allie likes to sleep in until 9 or so, but when she wakes up, she is the happiest little lady. She smiles at everyone and loves it when we talk to her. Dancing makes her smile as big as she can. No surprise there that we have another crazy one! She eats like a champ and is really starting to close in on some good fat rolls. She sneezes incessantly and it cracks me up. I say "Bless you!" to her 20 times a day. She doesn't like to be swaddled, but hits herself in the face over and over if she isn't. Allie is a big fan of her "poppy," but isn't great at keeping it in her mouth. We're working on it. Her play gym is becoming more interesting to her and she enjoys looking at herself in the mirror. Sleeping through the night is getting better and better. We usually get at least a four hour stretch at some point. Her breathing is ragged and noisy, especially at night, but she does better when she is sleeping next to me in my bed. This girl is a baby that loves to be held. There is nothing she wants more than a good snuggle. I can't imagine our family without this sweet girl!
