So, time is continuing to fly by. Langston is now 2 months old and getting bigger every day. It is fun having a baby around the house again, and since she is so good it hasn't been that stressful either. So far I have been blessed to have even tempered babies even if they show their true colors once the toddler years hit. This month hasn't been nearly as busy since school started for both Kenan and Nick. We hit up the Reinhart Reunion and the Indy picnic, met some good friends of ours for the first time, visited Aunt Edwina and Uncle Art in Louisville and went to the zoo there, went swimming for the first time(and a couple of times since), hiked at Wesselmans, visited the Boonville Splash Park, hung out during Kenan's soccer practices, enjoyed the first football game, and much more.
Langston continues to eat every 3-4 hours during the day, but her nights have gotten longer. For awhile she had gone from 4 hours at a time at night to 3 hours because she got a cold and I think it woke her up. As she has gotten better the nights lengthened even more. Last week she had an 8 hour stretch at night and since then, most nights have been 6-7 hour stretches with a couple hours after that. She started smiling at us for real at about 5-6 weeks old, even though she still doesn't do it a ton. Usually it is right after she eats and she is in a good mood. I did love it last week when I had been at church without her because I came home to see her grin so big at me when she realized I was home. She stays awake more during the day although she still sleeps after each feeding. Sometimes it will be almost the whole time between feedings, where other times she will be awake a lot longer. If we are out doing errands and she is in the seat, she will snooze the day away. She has started to coo and make more noises as well as chew and suck on her fist any chance she gets. I don't think it is teething yet, but we shall see. When she is awake she can be very active and kick and move her arms like crazy. That is fun to watch. I don't have any weight and height stats right now because her appointment is behind this month. She doesn't go in until she is about 2 1/2 months. I don't like that because I want to compare her with the boys and that will be harder to do. Oh well, we shall see soon enough.

Isabelle loves to hold Langston. Granted it is for 10 seconds or less and then she is done. |

Saw this on a card and thought it was cute. |
