13 and 2 months

Today is 13 months since Stella died. As I put on my owl locket this morning I realized it will never get any easier. I will always, always have a sadness in my heart.

I feel so lucky though to have this little one in my life. She is my everything and I feel so much love and peace with her. And that's an understatement!

Eleanor Moon is 2 months old today.

The second month went much quicker than the first. She has pretty good head control. She can keep her head upright if you hold her upright. But you have to watch out for the head butts. She is making more noises now and is smiling in the past two weeks. Although she gets bored with her parents and smiles more when we have visitors! She gets up only once during the night to eat. Well she gets up about 5:30-6:00am for a feeding which I wish was a little later but I count it as morning. She goes to bed sometime between 7-8pm and eats around 1-2am and then at 5:30-6am. And for the stats (we went to the doctor today for her 2 month check-up): she is 24 inches tall (96th percentile!) and weighs 12lbs 6oz (89th percentile). She is getting nice and chubby. She has a small head though, only in the 50th percentile but maybe that's why she can hold her head up!

All in all, she is healthy. Thank you to all that is good and positive in this world. Let's hope she stays that way!
