This week, Sophia had a doctor's appointment. Our darlin' (as Daddy calls her sometimes) is doing fantastic. She's healthy and strong - holding her head up for (what seems) a long period of time, "standing" up, and connecting with us with her eyes and beautiful smile. Amazingly enough, she didn't cry at all when she was given her shot! Sophia is such a wonderful baby and joy. Alexander constantly wants to either see her, kiss her cheek and head, hug her, or hold her. When she's in her crib, he'll entertain her by showing Jacques the Peacock to her and talking to her. His love for his sister is so pure and it makes our hearts smile to see it every day.
Notably, we're a whole lot calmer (less stressed and anxious) with Sophia than we were with Alex (thank goodness). To that end or perhaps just because it's the type of baby she is, Sophia has only been waking up once a night to nurse! Thankfully, she's been eating very well during the day and gaining weight on track.
She's also started talking to us, which is very exciting! So many more exciting things to come. We can't wait and are truly enjoying our life.
