So far Larissa has been great at work. She naps for most of the morning, then wakes up to eat around 11 and we'll run around the building to drop stuff off and finish my work together until 12. She's such an easy-going baby. I really wonder if Addi would have been like this if I'd been doing this with her. For as colicky as she was at night, she was usually pretty good in the mornings for me too.

Larissa has also recently figured out her hands, and is trying to grab and play with things, but she gets really frustrated when she cannot get and hold onto the thing she wants. It's amazing to watch her learn every day.

Addi is also learning something new seemingly every day. She comes home with a new song or lesson to teach me all the time, and she's been doing lots of pictures for us of people and animals (that are actually starting to look like animals). Plus she always says that spending time with us is her favorite thing every day. As much as we fight her over going to sleep, she is a wonderful and sweet little girl. Brendon and I are very lucky.

Well, we had a great Halloween and then took a quick trip to St. Charles to visit my brother and Andrea, and had a great time. Addi said she didn't want to leave :)

Today we had Larissa's 2 month doctor check. She's 12lb. 2oz. (86%) and 24 in. (98%) It's wonderful that she's so big and healthy, but a big change from what Addi was. She's also smiling and talking (cooing) a lot. Even had smiles for the nurses again after she got done with her shots today. She is truly the sweetest baby ever!

I start back to work next week, which is a bit bittersweet. I'm looking forward to working, but I know it means less one on one time with Larissa. Hopefully it will go smoothly with taking her to work for the first few months. Keeping my fingers crossed.
