2 months old

Audrey had her two month check up today, she did great, smiling and cooing. Then came the shots, I have never heard her scream that loud yet. It was awful and then they were done and she was fine. She was a real trooper, but now she has a fever and so we gave her some tylenol and she is resting in her chair. Poor little girl, hope she feels better soon.

I bet you all want to know the stats though, she is gaining weight just fine in case you couldn't tell. She now weighs 14 lbs 9 ounces and is in the 100th percentile for weight, ha, she is as big as they get I guess you can say. She is 24 inches long, which is the 97th percentile for height. The doctor said she looked absolutely perfect and that we were doing a great job as parents. He asked us if we braved it and took her out on a walk yet, haha, he doesn't know us too well I guess, we took her on a walk the day she came home and we have been on vacation, silly doctor.
I guess it's better to have her healthy and gaining weight than to be struggling to gain.

I cannot beleive she is 2 months old already. She has had a great first week at daycare. She loves it, every day she does something that they report to us. The first day she reached for the big bird on the mobile then she looked at herself in the mirror the next day. She loves the swing they have , which is great because she doesn't enjoy our swing at home. Every day I have called they say that Audrey is having such a great day. I thought for sure when I called today after her appt. they would say she was crabby for the first time, but no, they said she was playing. She is so good. We are so lucky to have such a great baby girl.

It's tough with those first shots and the loudest scream ever! Glad to hear she's doing so great with everything. Her looks are changing already and I can see more of you in her face now!

i can totally relate to those 100 percentile babies! with both ashton and john, dr. hranac would say, here is the 'normal range'. and then he would point to a spot off of the paper and say-this is where ashton (or john) is! they were always off the charts for height and weight. to me, it just meant they were healthy!

glad audrey likes day care. it makes it much easier to go to work, doesn't it?

Glad to hear little Miss Audrey is doing fine. Has she grown out of her infant carrier yet? (did you have one?)
