Lilly is 2 months old today

Hi All,



Well Lilly is officially 8 weeks old today. How time goes by. Normally I would say what a great day for the Griffindor, but we had a MD appointment and with that came 6 shots! 1 was oral, 3 were combined. So she really only had 3. Poor Lilly. I have never seen her so hurt and upset. She was laughing and so happy and then the next second she is screaming so loud. I almost cried. My Dad was there for support. He ended up feeding her a bottle. This of course made all things better.

So the shots given today were: Rotavirus, DTaP, 2nd shot of HepB, Hib, Polio, and PCV. What does this mean? Well I guess in my mind she will not get any of these diseases and she can go to school! Yea Lilly. You’re on your way.

Ok the most important thing her measurements. She weighed in at 11lbs. Oink Oink on the breast milk. She is 23 inches long. And the chart says she is 75% above average for girls her age. Hmm are we seeing a model or basketball player in our future Griffindor? And her head circumference is 38.0 cm. She has a tiny head on the charts for girls. Which means she got this from one of her parents...Michael? A tiny head, but a big brain. So Lilly is doing great!

What has she learned in 2 months: She coos, she laughs and smiles. She can hold her rattles. She can stand in her Tummy Tub. Lilly loves Yo Gabba Gabba, Olivia, and Wonder Pets on Nick Junior. She loves her vibrating chair and to be wrapped like a burrito in it. She has to have her binky at all times! Our sleep pattern is lasting longer through the night. Thank you Jesus! And Twiggy and our little Griffindor are slowly bonding. I would say it has been a great 2 months.

I cannot believe in the next 2 months she will be starting to eat pureed foods.
