Zoe is two months old today, and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time for another update on how she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s changing. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s grown\u00c2\u00a0more than 5\u00c2\u00a0pounds since she was born (we’ll know exactly how much tomorrow), and she eats 5-6 times a day (down from 7-8 when she was really young). All of the things she likes to do at this stage are pretty textbook: blow bubbles, munch on her hands, stare intently and coo at mobiles and certain toys, etc. Speaking of cooing, she is finally able to communicate in other ways besides crying; she routinely\u00c2\u00a0chatters and “squaks” – especially when music is playing. She also now kicks her legs and flails her legs around when she’s excited, which is pretty cute to see. Zoe is still a good sleeper – routinely\u00c2\u00a0waking up only once\u00c2\u00a0a night to eat. The most exciting thing, though, is that she doesn’t always have to be asleep when she’s put to bed; lately she’s been going to sleep on her own. (That makes my life a lot easier in the middle of the night!)<\/p>\n
Angelina Jolie recently got a lot of bad press for calling her baby daughter a “blob,” but I can sort of understand what she’s talking about. Teeny-tiny babies really don’t do that much (aside from eat, sleep and go to the bathroom), and – although I didn’t realize it when Zoe was first born – it’s a lot more fun when a baby is bigger and able to interact more.<\/p>\n
