Two Months Old

I can't believe that today Ellie is two months old! She is such a sweet girl and we are so thankful to be her parents. Here is a list of some of the things Ellie is doing these days:

1. She absolutely loves bath time, especially having her hair washed! This is great especially since we still haven't been able to give her a real bath yet (her umbilical cord stump is still hanging on!)
2. She also loves to have her diaper changed. More times than not she coos during the process showing her delight.
3. Ellie is a good eater. I never have to worry about her food intake...she lets me know when she's hungry and does so with great enthusiasm.
4. Ellie loves being outside. If she gets fussy we just take her out and she calms down almost every time.
5. She is a strong little one. She has great neck strength and loves to show us how long she can hold her head up. Her favorite thing to do is to stand up and look over my shoulder.
6. Ellie is sleeping pretty consistently through the night on her own accord. Most nights she goes from 10-11 pm until 5-6 am without a peep. During the day though she has been a short napper, but we are fine with that as long as she's in a good mood and doing so well at night.

For some reason I couldn't rotate this video, but here is Ellie waiting patiently while Brad and I ate dinner tonight.
