Baby 180

Its amazing how much a baby changes in such a short period of time. For example, Loralai used to sleep throughout the night and the day and only wake up for feedings. Then at about a month and a half old she started staying awake most of the day, other than one long nap, and sleeping through the nights except for feedings. Now, my two and a half month old baby is awake for most of the day, sleeps during the late afternoon/early night, and then wakes up a lot throughout the night. I have basically just kissed my sleep goodbye since I work in the mornings. On my days off I try and catch up on the sleep I lost from all the days I work. 

Another way she has changed is that she smiles and laughs a lot now. I can get her to play for a little bit of time and I can even leave her in her bouncer for a bit so she can play with the toys that hang down from it. Even though she is only 2 and a half months old, I feel like she is a completely different baby than the one I brought home. I'm having so much fun watching her grow and learn.
