our second month

it's so hard for me to believe that perry is already two months old! it has flown by faster than i could ever imagine. 

a lot has happened in her second month of life! my mom warned me that i should be writing things down but i haven't and i'm afraid that i am already forgetting every little thing that she does! so i'll do my best to document it here.

 obviously, i am a little late to document! oops!

 perry turned 2 months old 2 days before halloween so i thought her orange diaper was appropriate!

sweet perry lucille,

 in your second month of life, you steal our hearts more and more every single day. 

you are smiling. every morning when you wake up, you give both mommy and daddy the sweetest smile in the world. such a precious gift from God.

you love it when we say the word "hi". especially in a high pitched voice. 
and you like to read. this is one of my favorite accomplishments!

you love the camera flash. you were crying before i took your pictures and perked right up when the flash went off.

the evenings are much better after i quit drinking coffee. you are loving life and falling fast asleep around 8:00. i don't want to brag but you are sleeping really well. most nights you sleep from 9:00 until 5 or 6. we are very blessed by your sleeping schedule. 

but, you don't like to nap. i'm okay with that since you sleep all night. 

a few weeks ago, you started recognizing mommy and daddy. you see each of us and smile. 

and finally, tummy time has gotten better. thanks to chelle, you got lots of practice and can finally hold yourself up. 
you have found your hands! you put them in your mouth when you are not sucking on your pacifier. 
you are talking. or babbling. its so precious.

you are also starting to notice your toys. i cried the day that you started watching your mobile (saturday, oct 31). 

it is amazing to watch God's little miracles in you everyday. life is so precious and we are so thankful to be your parents. 

we are so proud of you and can't wait to see how much you change in month 3! 
love you perry girl!
