Blaire - Two Months

Blaire turned two months on the fifth.  The time went so quickly I can hardly even believe it.  She had her doctors appointment on the sixth and she is still a little bit, still squeezing into some of her newborn clothes even. She weighed 9 pounds 11.5 ounces and was 21.75 inches long. One pound and one inch shorter than her sister was at her two month well check.  This put her in the twelfth percentile for both.

She of course had her immunizations at this appointment and we are fairly certain that she cried more in the course of the hours following than she has since she was born. Poor girl.  Momma didn't do a very great job at getting her Tylenol soon enough after so we will need to be better about that for next time.

She is a great eater, still breastfeeding like a champ.  So strange how it just clicked this time around with her.  She loves to be talked to and walk around the house with her back to your chest so she can see the world.  She is very alert and inquisitive.  She smiles the most of any of our children at this age and is mostly happy.  The only time she gets really fussy is when she is hungry or when she is over tired and when she is over tired of course she fights her sleep the most.  She still isn't a big fan of bath time but we are making progress. 

She is very strong. She can hold her head up and has great balance with her torso. She is very close to rolling over from her tummy to her back as well.

We celebrated her first Christmas this month and got some great pictures of her.  I think month three will bring many more new things but my biggest hope is a giggle. Until then.
