Anna is 2 months old! Before I share pics from her second month, I want to sneak one in from her first month--it's our first family photo, with Anna being 11 days old.

And now on to the pictures from her second month. I've left out a lot, (you can thank me later) but I think I got the best ones! A little about her second month. At the beginning of her second month, she weighed 9 lbs 12 oz. At the end, she weighed 11 lbs 14 oz. She has a little rash on her face, which comes and goes, but usually doesn't look too awful. She started smiling at about 5 weeks, and now she is smiling a lot. She is very smiley in the mornings and when getting her diaper changed. She also smiles big when daddy comes home from school.
She has learned to make noises that aren't crying, and loves to have conversations with both Alexander and I. She coos and we interpret it as we wish. Sometimes she says some pretty crazy things, like that she wants to go to Disney World soon! She loves her play mat/gym and gets really excited about the toys that hang down from it--a ladybug, a cardinal, and a duck. She kicks her legs and coos at them as she bats them randomly. She likes tummy time and is getting really good at holding her head up to look around and pushing with her arms.
She is very alert and awake. She loves to just look around and see what's going on. She hates going to sleep because I think she feels left out. She is, however, sleeping really well--usually from about 10 pm to 7 am. It is really nice to get all that sleep!
