What's Happy Doing?

Looking concerned

"What's Happy doing?"  Charlotte asks several times a day.  The answers are invariably nursing or sleeping.  She doesn't do much else.  She's only two months old (today!), so what do you expect? She does has a few other "skills" at this time:

• She smiles at me every morning, which is awesome.  Otherwise, she spends a lot of time looking very serious and concerned.  Mike can coax more smiles out of her throughout the day.    
• She is a good sleeper!  She consistently sleeps from about 11-5.  During the day, she won't stay asleep unless she is being held, which is a small price to pay for being a well-rested parent.  Plus, I don't mind holding her all day since soon I will have to go to work again.  
• She is already showing an affinity for being outside.  Once outside, she is calm and peaceful.  Sometimes I'll sit on the deck and read and she'll sit in her bouncey seat and look around.
• She is really active and wiggly.  Sometimes nursing her is a little wrestling match and she makes her bouncy seat bounce just by kicking her legs - no batteries needed!
• She is beautiful!

Coming attractions:  vitals! and phenomenal hair pictures!

Conversation with Charlotte #2145

This morning, as is her wont, well, as is any toddler's wont, Charlotte began whining for no apparent reason, out-of-the-blue, and while perfectly content with whatever we were doing (I think I was putting bows in her hair).

ME: Where did that whining come from?

CHARLOTTE: From my mouth.

She's nothing if not honest.
