Two Months Old

Saturday, Teegen turned two months old! I cannot believe how time has gone by so fast. And she is developing quite the personality. Today, Larry and I took her for her two month doctor's visit, which included a vaccine or tow. I'm thankful that we have such a great doctor who listed to my concerns regarding vaccinations and is working with us to develop our own schedule of vaccines. Teegen handled the injection better than I thought. She hardly cried at all. Mom on the other hand, felt a bit faint and almost threw up!

Here's a little update on the girl:

• She now weighs a whopping 11lbs 9 ozs. That's three pounds from last visit!
• She measures in at 23.5 inches long.
• She is sporadically sleeping through the night. I attribute this to the swaddling.
• She is very vocal and loves to "talk"
• She is able to hold her head up, for the most part. She still has some wobbly moments.
• She has started to smile when someone smiles at her.
• She loves to be carried in the Hotsling*.
• She loves to have someone sing to her.
• She has finally outgrown her newborn sleepers
• She is the spit-up queen
  

Seriously...who is this strange boy?

Maybe I'll give you half of a grin

I love this blanket!

Hey Mommy, I like your new hair, but my dress is too big!

Really...my dress is too big.
But it looks good on me!

* I just want to go on record and say that I love my Hotsling and the idea of carrying my daughter in it. I fell in love with them long before we even started to discuss adoption. And as soon as we found out that we were going to be parents, I immediately ordered one in the "Tattoo" pattern, which features skulls, hearts, etc....a very edgy look, which I loved. A few days ago, Larry, being the great husband that he is, washed the sling...and dried it...shrinking it beyond belief. So, I went to order another one, but alas...no Tattoo pattern. So, what's a girl to do?.....I ordered two more in different patterns. Teegen has such a large wardrobe, I figured we needed some choices. If you are curious about slings, I would definately check out Hotslings!
