#RG at 2 Months and a Giveaway

Two months, little one.  Well, technically 9 weeks now.  Somehow, saying it in weeks makes it feel shorter than saying it in months.  I finally feel like I know you.  I know that you like your music loud, and prefer the Dropkick Murphys to silence.  I know that you only like to be awake for about 1 1/2 hours, and then you're ready to sleep again.  I know that you have a smile for everyone, including the wall (really bursts your bubble when you think she's saved her smile for you, then you find her flashing it at a random corner of her crib, as well).  

You've slept through the night, a handful of times, and I've appreciated every single one of them.  You don't grasp things, at least not physically, but when I explain to you the difference between mean, median, and mode, it seems like you really understand.  You're still much more interested in the dog than he is in you, and that's okay.  You still cry when I put you down to sleep, but only for a few minutes.  You wake up happy most of the time.  You wear size 2 diapers and just grew out of 0-3 mo. clothing.  All in all, you're a fabulously fabulous baby.

Its crazy how fast time has flown.  It doesn't seem as though she's been here that long, but at the same time, it seems perfectly reasonable that she would be here, like she belongs.  Because, I guess, she does.

One thing that I've found myself doing a heck of a lot more of since baby girl arrived 9 weeks ago, other than laundry, is taking pictures.  I've taken hundreds of pictures, possibly even thousands in these few short (I wrote "shew fort" the first time) months.  They're so fun to look at and I'm picking some to be printed, because there's just something about a printed picture. And in a lot of my pictures, I've had the chance to use these super cute blocks!

Baby girl was hamming it up!

The title of this post promised a giveaway, and I'm no shirker.  So what I've got for you today is a Reader's Choice from my sponsor, Everyday October.  One reader will win either a sweet set of pink, black, & gray blocks (shown above), or a $20 giftcard to EO's shop.  These blocks would be great for baby pictures, as I've been using them for, or for kiddos in school.  Heck, I might even take my birthday picture with mine from now on.  They also make bomb-phenom shower gifts, just FYI.

To win, enter with Rafflecopter below!  Winner will be announced Friday.
