Dear Baby C,

Today you turn 2 months old, which is incredible because it seems like it was only a few days ago that I was detailing Month One. Time sure does fly when you are drinking wine having fun!

In the last month you’ve started blooming into this really incredible little person. This is welcome news because I had started looking around for the box you came in. Then I got all pissed off because I couldn’t find the receipt. Then I remembered that the hospital has no return policy and I’m like, well what am I supposed to do now?

So, I started talking to you. Now, I’ve always talked at you, but once you turned a month old I decided to start talking to you. I talked and talked and talked and after a few weeks I had all but given up hope that you’d finally start talking back. And then do you know what happened? On the day you turned 8 weeks and 1 day, you started talking back. I mean, not talking with words, but you finally started responding with noises that weren’t screams. That’s my girl! And since then? Well, you still scream a lot. But you also have the most amazing baby noises. You “oohh” and “ahh” and “coo” and it is music to my ears.

This month we also went on a road trip. We got to see your grandparents, your great granny, and your great grandparents. It was a long trip (and one we’d not like to repeat any time soon since you are an anomaly and hate being in the car), but it was worth it.

You are blooming faster than I’d like though. While I won’t miss the sleepless nights or the screaming because you aren’t in the middle of everything going on around you, I know I will miss this period of blossoming. You are one Super Baby and I love you very much.

Love,

Mama
