Sofia has quickly grown from her newborn clothes right through her 0-3 clothes. Today I put a 3-6 month sleeper on because the one she was wearing was a bit tight. The arms are just a bit long and the legs just a hair long, but it fits better than I imagined it would. I think over the next week or two we will have to break out all of the 3-6 month clothes, right on time for when she turns three months.
She continues to find her hands. She is nearly constantly opening and closing them as well as feeling one hand with the other. She is also starting to grab things, not just bat at them.
The past couple of weeks she was back to anywhere from 2-4 hours at night after she teased me with 5 and 6 hour stretches of sleep. Things are starting to turn around again. I have had a couple of 4 and 5 hour stretches between feeds at night. Of course, I came down with some sort of sickness this weekend that gave me a sore throat and runny nose. It is extra hard to wake up when you are sick!
We are all anticipating our trip to the US in a couple of weeks. It will be Sofia's first airplane trip and our first as parents. Let's hope she takes to this flying business! We will be visiting Tom's parents in Charlotte, Jason and Kari in Minneapolis, Erin/Jim/Scott/Nicole/Others in Kansas City and then to Grand Forks to see the Laumbs and my family. Tom will fly home from Grand Forks and I will stay for a couple of extra weeks before heading home. On our way home we will stop in Minneapolis to stay with Faith for the weekend which allows us to fly directly to Amsterdam and then Humberside without having to do the Grand Forks flight that day, too.
Hope you are all having a great new year. I am off now, Sofia is falling back asleep and I need some rest to get over and fight this sickness before it gets any worse.
Sofia this morning:
