2 months

Bentley is now 2 months old...although this post is a little bit late. I can't believe how much she's growing! She's got some super cute rolls now and a nice double chin. We love this cute thing to pieces!

So the 2 month mark means it's time for Bentley to get her first shots. I was terrified for this day as I never want to see Bentley crying in pain! I made sure Jeff came with us, but it turned out to be a lot easier than I had expected. She got 3 needles in her legs and definitely cried after every one, but it didn't take her long to settle down afterwards. I fed her right away and then she fell asleep. She acted very different in the next few days, but it was actually kind of nice because she was so cuddly. She had a bit of a fever and slept a whole lot. She's now back to her usual, bubbly self again. 



Well now that Bentley is another month older we've noticed a lot more personality. She can now recognize our voices and smiles a lot when we talk to her! She loves to kick her legs, especially when we change her diaper, and she's getting stronger and better at holding her head up. We've tried to sleep Bentley in her bassinet in our room, but unfortunately it just isn't soft enough for her! I swear she could tell if we put a pea underneath her mattress...what a little princess. She loves our bed and her crib, so we've started sleeping her there and sometimes on the couch (shhh don't tell!). Needless to say we make sure she is very safe! I think it will be a good thing because we won't have to transition her to the crib. She already loves it! She is a great sleeper most of the time. For a while she was sleeping 6-8 hours in the nighttime which was absolute bliss...but now we seem to be going backwards. Let's just say every night is unpredictable! 
I love being her mom and I get excited to see her smile at me after a nap, or try to eat my face when I kiss her on the cheek (haha). I think she is the most beautiful girl ever, and I can't wait to experience the next phases of her life with her!
