A day in the life of a 2 month old - - 6/25/14

I did a day in the life of a 2 month old with Max (click here to read it) and I wanted to do it with Emmalyn too... I tried to get a picture every hour of what we were doing.

2:14 am Emmalyn wakes up to nurse

5:46 am - Emmalyn wakes up to eat again

6:29 am - She's finally back asleep

Her poor face has baby acne again

9:00 am - She's awake again and read to eat!

9:49 - All done nursing.  I changed her diaper before we started and didn't do her pj's back up. 

Max's eyes looked pretty this morning.  I just can't capture how they truly looked on camera.   

Love those long lashes


 9:56 am - Emmalyn smiles and coos at me while I am pumping.

Max also helps to keep her entertained (aka pesters her)


Max reads a book to Momma

11:20 She wakes up from her short nap (she likes the feeling of something on her head so I let her sleep in the center of the boppy while I watch)...hm...that nap wasn't long at all.  Going to have to try something else

Max keeps reading to me while I help Emmalyn

Okay, all swaddled up!  (and awake and looking cute, of course...no where near sleepy) but Momma knows that she IS tired so this time we'll trying getting her to sleep in the swing.

12:29 - It worked and she went to sleep and is still sleeping!  Fantastic.  Now Momma can get some chores done.  (Again, have to put something on her head to get her to sleep...)

Max helped vacuum up the floor

Then we folded baby laundry together - this was his first time helping.  He did a great job!

1:35 pm - She's still sleeping!  Yeah!  Today will be a good day!

Max got to eat a "normal" lunch since Emmalyn was taking such a long nap.

2:30 - She's STILL sleeping in the swing.  Wowza!  I took advantage and worked on getting the baby announcements ready to go in the mail since Max was napping too.  (Baby announcements mailed when the baby is more than 2 months old isn't bad, right?  oh well...  I have two kids now.  Deal with it.)

2:40 - Oops, I jinxed it.  She's up and MAD that it's been so long since she ate.  "HURRY MOMMA!!!  FEED ME!!!"

3:52 - Happy and playing a little on her nap mat

4:15 - The Mejias are downstairs and want to see Emmalyn.

4:29 - Emmalyn's ready to take another nap.  Aunt Brittany swaddles her and gets her down.

5:25 - Still sleeping (that pillow does two things - #1 - helps keep a little pressure on the binky to keep it in until she's ready to completely spit it out #2 - gives her that feeling of something on her head.  Time to wake her up though, we've got to go to swimming lessons.

5:29 - Unfairly forced into the car seat so we can go to Max's swimming lessons.

5:50 - Happy at swimming lessons and getting ooh's and aah's from the parents around her that are commenting on how cute and tiny she is

6:46 - Back and home and she did NOT want to take the time to get her diaper changed before nursing.  "HURRY MOMMA!!!  FEED ME!!!"

6:49 - Ahhh, life is better.  Time to eat.

7:26 Now that she's eaten, it's time to play!  (Max likes to wear his helmet with the chin strap ON his chin not UNDER his chin.)


9:30 Time to go to sleep

10:25 Asleep! (notice that I had to lay next to her to get to sleep...ugh)

And the rest of the "day" was spent sleeping.  There you go - an exciting day in the life of a 2 month old.  :)
