Auntie Brenda

You loooooove your auntie Brenda. She was one of the first people you smiled at besides me and your dad, and now you continue to smile at her pretty much the whole time she is over. It's pretty cute!!! It definitely makes her world a lot brighter.

Cat Napper Snacker

I guess it's my fault for not wanting to feed you too much at one time
so that you don't spit up (as much). I've turned you into a Cat Napper
Snacker. Quick nap, snack, play, change, quick nap, snack, play,
change, quick nap... On and on all day long. At least your only waking
up once at night usually and you have a pretty good balance of times
you need to be held and times you can coo and talk and smile in your
swing or laying on the couch.

You are adorable and wonderful and smile and coo so much!

Smiles!!!

Such a silly girl!!

Baby Shower

Some ladies from our ward threw us a baby shower! A group of them
pitched in together and got you a new swing! You love it :-) And you
got these cute headbands like the one in this picture. And you got
some adorable outfits and some toys!

You are loved :-)

Birthmark

Interesting note about you... there is a birthmark below your left elbow. I'm not sure if it had been there all along, but I'm pretty sure it just developed afterward, because one day a few weeks ago, I thought you just had something on your skin, but upon scrubbing, I realized it wasn't coming off!

Aunt Carla

We went to visit Grandma Cook and Aunt Carla the other day. The story with Aunt Carla (Papa Wade's sister), is she was one of the only people who could hold me when I was a baby without me crying, and when we were all at the office, Aunt Carla is the one who put me to sleep.

You fell right to sleep with her too, and it was a treat for us all to see!

Dark Hair

I think Launa might be holding on to her dark hair, which is not what my previous prediction was. I was comparing pics of Starlynn the first couple months of her life, and Starlynn lost her dark hair within a couple weeks and it was already growing back in blonde fuzz by this time.

Launa lost a little bit of hair on the top, but never on the sides or in the back, and it's already growing back in on the top and it's not blonde. It's not DARK, but it's like a darker dirty blonde.

So, time will tell and we will see! It'd be fun for them to be different hair colors like me and my little sister are different hair colors.

LAUNA:

You are two months old today. I don't know what you weigh or how long you are, because mommy is rebellious and doesn't go to the doctors. You are growing just great though. You feel heavier all the time, and you are growing out of many of your outfits and are in the 0-3 month clothes now, with possibly only one or two of your (what used to be more baggy) newborn outfits fitting you.

You are such a good baby. Mostly, you only get up once a night to eat. Then I rock you back to sleep, or sometimes you'll just go straight back to your crib which is next to my bed.

You are smiling more and more and make the CUTEST little cooing sounds. I love it SO much.

You are precious--taking in the world and trying to communicate with us how happy and content you are.
