Soraya is 2 Months old!

Dear Soraya,

Happy BIrthday!!

We just can't believe how time flies and that another month has passed already! You are now exactly 2 months old! You have grown and put on weight again. Although we haven't seen Dr. Shah since last month, we know those are facts; simply because nearly every other day we have to put another Onesie back in to the storage box because your legs have gotten too long to fit in it and our arms are getting sore much sooner now when we play airplane to keep you happy while we watch T.V. at night. You still haven't had any shots yet (it's coming up soon though) and yet you are as happy and healthy as we could ever wish for. We are still taking Uki on walks in the park and you still love it - the other day you actually stayed awake during most of the walk; all snuggled up in your Moby; just looking around and blinking at trees and the sun.

Daddy and Kailen went on the annual Saline Valley Camping trip over President's Day weekend, so Zoe and Kyva came over to stay with us and we had ourselves a fun filled girly-weekend; complete with Audrey Hepburn movies and all the cookies and brownies we could eat. On the morning of your 6 week birthday we noticed for the first time that you smiled at us with full intent, rather than just an accidental grin randomly throughout the day.





In these past two months you have changed a lot! At first you started to smile with your eyes closed; a completely involuntary muscle reaction. Then it evolved into the same kind of random, accidental smiles with your eyes open. From there you started to smile at certain points in our grown up conversations amongst each other; making it look at times like you knew exactly what we were talking about. Now we can say with certainty that you are in full control of your emotions; particularly your smiles! You can be laying in your bed, hanging out in your "Snow Jet" and when you hear our voices or see us you bust out the biggest smiles we've ever seen! Pure happiness! When we baby talk to you in squeaky voices, smile at you or sometimes just enter the room, you smile so big, it looks like your cheeks might hurt and sometimes you even blow milk bubbles you're so tickled!



You have become fully aware of the little birdies, butterflies and mirror above your "Snow Jet" and you hang out for almost an hour at times just staring up at them, smiling at yourself, telling stories, having the time of your life! It is the cutest thing ever!!! We hung up Nona's painting in your room and you love to stare at it when we change you. You're also a big fan of "Goetti's" painting in the living room.





You are much more vocal now; having developed a few different noises and your "I said I was hungry"-cry has taken on a very strong, grown up tone with power and purpose behind it. When we don't react right away, or when you wake up and are starved right away and can't wait 3 minutes to get your milk, you even cry with real tears and all! It's so sad it could break our hearts; but thankfully so far we have always figured out how to turn those tears into that little smile we love.

We love you more than you probably know right now and enjoy every minute with you!

Happy Birthday Princess!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy!



Liebi Soraya,

Alles Gueti zum Geburtstag!!

Mir choends kum glaube wie schnell d Ziit vergaht und dass scho wieder en ganze Monet verbii isch! Du bisch jetzt genau 2 Monet alt! Du bisch wieder gwachse und hesch meh zuegnoh. Obwohl mir de Dr. Shah nueme gseh hend sit letscht Monet, wuesse mer, dass es eso isch, will mer fascht jede ander Tag wieder muend es "Onesie" zrug i d'Schachtle tue im Chaschte will dini Beindli z lang sind zum dri passe und will eusi Aerm vill schneller mued werded wemmer "Flugi" spilled zum dich z Fride stelle am Abig bim Fernseh luege. Hesch bis jetzt immer no kei Impfige gha (s wird bald so wiit sii) und bisch aber immer no so gsund und munter wie mir eus das nur choentet wuensche. Mir goend immer no mit em Uki in Park go spatziere und du liebsch es immer no - vor es paar Tag bisch sogar s meiste Stuck vom Spatziergang lang wach gsi; i din Moby ine kuschled; und hesch d Baeum und d Sunne a blinzlet.

De Papi und de Kailen sind an jaehrliche "Saline Valley"-Camping Usflug und drum sind d Zoe und d Kyva zu eus cho und mir hend es lustigs Girl-Wucheend verbracht mit Audrey Hepburn Filme luege und so vill Guetzli und Brownies esse wie mir nur hend moege. Am Morge vo dim 6 Wuche Geburi, hemmer s erst Mal gmerkt wie du eus mit voller Absicht agrinst hesch; anstatt nur zuefaellig e mal laechle wenns der grad passt.

I dene letschte zwei Monet hesch dich sehr veraenderet! Am Afang hesch glaechlet mit de Auge zue; e kompleti, unfreiwilligi Muskelbewegig. Denn isch das Ganzi evolviert i die gliche unfreiwillige, sporadische Laechle aber mit de Auge offe.Vo dete hesch den uf eimal afange laechle wenn mir under enand Gschwaetzt hend a de genau richtige Stelle, so dass mer het choene meine du verstoechisch was mer seged. Jetzt choemer mit Sicherheit sege, dass du volli Kontrolle hesch ueber dini Gfuehl, vorallem dis Laechle! Du chasch di dim Bettli lige, im "Snow Jet" haenge und wenn du eusi Stimme ghoersch oder eus gsesch denn chasch du s groeschte Laechle ufsetzt wo mer je gseh hend! Pures Glueck! Wenn mir mit dir Babysprach reded in quietschender Stimm, dich alaechlet oder maengmal sogar nur is Zimmer ine choemed, grinsis du so fescht, dass mer choent meine dini Baeggli platzed fascht und maengmal hesch sogar Milkbloeterli am Muul vor luter Freud!

Hesch jetzt au d Voegli, d Summervoegeli und de Spiegel ueber em "Snow Jet" entdecked und hockisch maengmal e Stund lang voll vergnuegt dete, luegsch ufe, laechlisch dich selber ah und verzellsch Gschichtli; hesch die besti Ziit debii! Zuckersuess!! Mir hend au de Nona ihres Gemaelde i dim Zimmer ufghaenckt und du starrs es immer ah wenn mir dich tuend Wickle. Bisch au en grosse Fan vom Goetti sim Kunstwerk i de Stube.

Bisch au vill meh gsproechig jetzte und hesch scho es paar verschiednigi Grueschli wo'd machsch und din "Ich han gseit ich han Hunger"-Schrei het au scho en ganz chraeftige Ton und Vill Willenschraft dehinder. Wenn mir nued grad sofort reagiered oder du ufwachsch und den grad meinsch segisch am verhungere und chum 3 minute magsch warte bis es Milch git, bruelsch sogar richtig fescht - mit Traendli und allem. Es isch den so trurig es choenti eim fascht s Herz breche ; aber zum Glueck hemmer bis jetzt no immer en Weg gfunde zum die Traendli wieder i das Laechle zverwandle wo mir so liebed!

Mir liebed dich meh als du im Moment weisch und gnuessed jedi Minute mit dir!

Alles Gueti zum Geburtstag Prinzessin!

Mir hend dich ganz ganz fescht gern!!!

s Mami und de Papi
