2 months young!

 

Real women have rolls!

Jackie's 2 month birthday was yesterday, so naturally we celebrated by taking her to the doctor to get probed by cold metal objects and stuck with various concoctions of viruses and bacteria - aka immunizations. The doctor smirked at my concerns and questions about feeding. I think it might have something to do with her weight, which is now a staggering 12 pounds, 13 ounces; believe it or not, this is actually a lower weight percentile than she was in when she was born - someone out there is feeding their baby too much formula. She has grown to a lengthy 23 1/4 inches. Everything seems to be healthy as can be, especially her lungs! This age is really fun and can be really frustrating. Lately I've had to feed her under a blanket because she is so curious about the world around her, she can't focus on anything else. She has her own ideas about how it would be best to eat and wants to fight me over it. :) However, she is also full of smiles and coos that win my heart over every time. The highlight of our day is usually bath time, when she gets to watch the water running and kick her feet in the tub. Sweet little girl!
