2 Months!

2 Months old and smiling for the camera

Can you believe it? Sophia is 2 months already! At her doctor's apt today she weighed in at:10lbs and 11oz. and she measured: 23inches long. She's definitely growing!

She also had her series of 2 month shots today :( She cried a lot before falling asleep for her nap. I felt like such a "bad guy" for bringing her to the doctor to get poked 3 times! :(

Shot spot :( Poor baby

I can't believe that 2 months have passed. Some days I look at her and think, "2 months! She's already losing the newborn look." but most days I look at her in disbelief. I still can not believe that we have been blessed with such a beautiful little girl. And then my heart breaks thinking about going back to work. (Even though I know she will be in great hands!)

I know that I have it much better than a lot of working moms. Matthew has been working so hard so that I could take an extra month off. I am one lucky lady, and I know that. I love him so much for making that sacrifice and NEVER once complaining about it. I also know that I am in the perfect field for maximizing time with my little miracle. I will go back to work for one week, get Spring Break off, and then go back for 2 months. That's just as much time that has passed since she came into our lives! I can do this!

Thinking about work has been bittersweet lately. On the one hand, I miss the adult interaction, but on the other, I have not been there since mid-December, so I have been missing out on all of the budget talks-which is nice. However, I got my pink slip today. So even though working in the field of education is a blessing for maximizing my "momma time"throughout the year, it's stressful to go into summer not knowing what my job future looks like...Keep us in your prayers!

But, instead of worrying too much, I am enjoying every second I have at home. Most days I spend with our little one are much like the video below! In 2 short months, Sophia has begun smiling and interacting with us! She recently discovered her hands and has been chewing on them ever since! Enjoy our little girl!
