-started smiling back at you and at objects
-is learning to hold her head up, but still really wobbly
-she doesn't hate tummy time quite as much and is doing great getting her neck stronger.
-she doesn't love her carseat and doesn't really fall asleep in the car like I think a lot of babies do
-she is on a pretty consistent 3 hour eating schedule, sleeping 1 1/2- 2 hours of each block
-she is sleeping at night from around 10:30-11pm-4:15 am, it is awesome!
-we love being on a schedule and cannot believe the difference it has made being able to sleep longer and know when she'll eat/sleep. Schedules are for us, no question.
-We love babywise!
-She loves to be swaddled especially in the miracle blanket (thanks again Tara!)
-She loves her cousins and they love her (pictures coming soon). They try to make her smile and she does! It is so cute how much they love her and having a baby around!
-Her current nicknames are Baby girl, Littlekins, Ruthiekins, little angel, etc.
-She LOVES her paci and gets indention's in her cute little cheeks from it. We are so thankful she loves it so much.
-She also Loves her vitamins!
-She loves to stand up and jump.

-She doesn't love bathtime but she doesn't hate it thankfully.
-I believe she's about 9lbs (I weighed her on the scale at the OB in the carseat and subtracted for the carseat and what she had on).
-She goes back to the doctor next week for a well baby check and shots (not looking forward to that!)
-She has the CUTEST dimples now that she's getting bigger cheeks. So far there are definitely 2 sets, with a third possible.
-Her eyes have open and are really focusing now. They've also doubled in size it seems like!

-She still looks a lot like Joel but is changing quickly. We think her nose and ears are mine, maybe the lips too.
-She now has two of the cutest chins I've ever seen!
-She is starting to get little rubber band arms and legs but I don't think we're going to have michelin baby.
-She is still really long.
-She is ridiculously strong. Its pretty amazing to us how well she can hold herself up and sit up with you holding her hands.
-She has gotten in the ocean and loved it.

-She has all but grown out of most of her newborn onesies, and is now wearing 0-3 month clothes
-She still wears newborn diapers but I don't think I will have to buy anymore of that size
-Pampers swaddlers are what we think are the best diapers, but we're hoping the Costco diapers will be just as good!
This second month with Ruthie has been great, we're loving this stage as she's learning so much and growing so quickly! We love her more everyday!

Love it! A is for adorable, such a cutie little Ruthiekins. I'm so happy to hear that she's got a good chunk of sleeptime at night, as well as not needing to eat every hour! Keep those cute pictures coming :)
