2 Months

Wow I can't believe it has been 2 months already. Nate and I have loved being parents to little Zoie! Everyone says that your lives change sooo much having a baby and adjusting to life with a baby is hard. Maybe I just got lucky because I have the best husband in the world, but it really hasn't been much different. I know its been easy on me because of Nate, he does anything he possibly can to help out at night when he is home and on the weekends. If there is ever a time where he can see that the laundry might be piling up or the dishes need to be done, he is right there doing it. WOW I just can't brag enough about him. Zoie and I are so blessed to have him in our life.
Zoie is such a good baby, it scares me to think about having another one because he/she may not be as easy as Zoie has been. We give her her bath around 9 pm, then I feed her, and we put her in her cradle and she talks for about 20 mins then she falls asleep and at first we had to wake her up at 7 am....that's right 7 AM to feed her. Now she is waking up at 4 am when daddy's alarm goes off, so I feed her while Nate gets ready to go to work, which we are all up anyways, then she goes back to sleep till 10 am...so basically we get to sleep in every morning. Friday- Sunday Nate doesn't work, so no alarm goes off so Zoie sleeps until around 6 or 7 am. SUCH A GOOD BABY!! and did I mention she is the most BEAUTIFUL girl! HAHA....
She is smiling a ton, little giggles here and there (not jokin Steph is my witness) Chey made her giggle, and she is a mama's girl BIG time.Our cousin Jill says shes a good mixture of both of us, and we agree. Its weird, some days she looks sooo much like her dad and then others I feel like I'm looking at my baby pictures. She weighs 8.2 pounds and still big blue eyes! All the babies that were born after her are passing her up in weight like crazy. She is still a tiny little thing. She is a very spitty up baby though, we put on her cute outfit for the day and by the time dad gets home she is back in her plain white onesis. HAHA! We are getting the hang of it though. (LOTS OF BIBS and BURP CLOTHES)
We want to thank everyone who has helped out by watching Zoie here and there so we can run to the grocery store or dr appts. We are thankful for family and all they do!
Hope you all are adjusting to the cold weather and are doing well!
Love US!
Wow does she look like her daddy here!
Blurry smile!

Holy cow, she is tiny! Max is already up to 14 lbs 24 inches...he would be like a giant next to her! That is awesome that she is sleeping so well.

It is sad how fast they grow...you hear it all your life, but when you are the parent watching your children pass you by, that's when it really dawns on you!

Nate must take after his Grandpa Clair. He was the same perfect Hubby who helped all the time.

She sounds so much like Eliza!! Eliza goes to sleep around 9, 10 or 11, then usually wakes up around 7, eats, then goes back to sleep four a few hours. and she spits up a lot too. we can't go anywhere with burp rags! and Eliza is real petite too. she's like in the 20% in her weight. I feel the exact same that I'm scared my next baby won't be as good! I don't know what I'll do!
sounds like you guys are doing great!! our babies need to meet!
