Sylvia is 2 months old!!

Sylvia Rose is 2 months old today, and still perfect!

She's been giving us full-fledged smiles for the past couple weeks, which is absolutely wonderful. She's awake more than ever before these days, and seems to really enjoy looking around at the world and at people fussing about how cute she is. She definitely has good days and bad days, but she seems to spend less of her time screaming. When she does get upset, it's usually not to difficult to calm her down. She's been sleeping 4-6 hours straight in the evening. The only trouble is that this usually starts a few hours before we're ready to go to bed, but it often gives us a chance to get some chores done without interruptions and get a few hours of sleep before she wakes us up needing to be fed.

Today, we estimated that she weighs 9 pounds, 12 ounces and is 22.5 inches long.

Tomorrow morning we go in for her 2-month checkup and her vaccines, so I'll at least post a quick official progress report, and if I have some time I'll also post more recent pictures, including one of her first trip to the beach!
