Alanna is 2 Months Old!

Alanna had brought joy to our lives for 2 months now.  She started smiling just after turning 5 weeks old and hasn't stopped since. 

Don't you just love the curl on top of her head?!  She has a nice thick streak of hair down the center.
 Here is one of her REALLY BIG smiles.  I haven't been able to catch her in a picture just smiling without the freaking out style of smile seen here:)  As you can see her stork bites have already started to fade a little bit.  They get nice and red though when she is upset.


At 2 months old Alanna was still nursing 10 or 11 times per day.  She gives us a 5-6 hour stretch between feedings at night.  Alanna continues to sleep in between each feeding during the day and isn't on a schedule yet.  The most that she can stay up at a time without starting to get tired is a half an hour.  She has a very fussy period that starts like clockwork around 6 pm each night.
