Ava is 2 months old!

How is my baby already 2 months old?! These past 2 months have absolutely flown by. They've also gone extremely slow at times (hello growth spurts!). I go back to work on Monday and Ava will start daycare. I'm so thankful that I had these 2 months with her. I have loved every day that we've lounged around the house or run errands. I have seen how her personality has started to take shape. She has changed so much in these past 2 months. I will definitely miss her more than anything when I'm away from her, but I know that she will be in great hands. 
At her 2 month check up Ava measured 24 inches long and weighed 11 pounds 0.5 ounces. The doctor said that she is taller than 100% of girls her age. I'm hoping she will be tall like Thomas! She can hold her head up for a long time and can roll from belly to back occasionally. She eats every 2-3 hours, except overnight. She usually goes 4-6 hours from her last feeding before bed before she wakes and wants to eat again. She nurses very well and is great at taking a bottle. She only takes a pacifier if she's very tired or over stimulated. 
I am so thankful God chose me to be her mommy. I think back to March 21, 2015 very often. The day I found out I was pregnant. I was so shocked (in a good way!) that I didn't even try to tell Thomas in a cute way. I just woke him up and told him that I was pregnant. In fact, all of the cute Pinterest-y ideas I pinned to tell our families didn't get used at all. I was way too excited to wait to tell anyone. I immediately called my mom (who wasn't surprised at all) and then we called the rest of our family members throughout the day. I can't believe that little peanut is here now. I thank God for her every day.
