Watch Lydia Grow...9 weeks old

Our Lydia Grace is 9 weeks old today!  Here is how she has changed over the last two months:

At birth: 8lbs 6oz, 20.5in

1 month old: 10lbs 10oz, 21in

2 months old:  12lbs 13oz, 23in

Lydia started smiling around 5 weeks old and she can sure dazzle the room now.  She especially loves to be called a "pretty princess" and "pretty girl."  Funny how women respond to flattery from birth.  :)

She also loves to be carried around in a wrap carrier and look at herself in the mirror above her swing.  She is beginning to like baths too.  She fits perfectly in her size 0-3 month clothes with no room to spare and is moving into some 3-6 month outfits too.  She is a very happy baby until evening when she has a fussy time and Daddy does the "Lydia dance" to calm her or Mommy wears her in her wrap.  She is a wonderful sleeper and does 5-7 hour stretches at night consistently.  We are so enamored with our precious baby girl!
