First, my apologies for not posting in awhile. I have no idea where the time has gone! The days just get shorter and shorter and I get fewer and fewer things done. I really don't care, though. I spend hours looking at my little Sugar plum and she just gets cuter and cuter as the minutes pass. She has the cutest little cheeks that I lovingly refer to as 'hams'. We have ham bones, ham shanks, ham sandwiches, ham rolls....you get the point. And I take every opportunity to kiss those hams all day long!
Miss Caroline turned 2 months old on November 18th. We had her first round of vaccines and it was without incident (thank heavens). I firmly believe it was much harder on her mommy and daddy than it was on her, but she made it blatantly clear she is not a fan of shots EITHER!
What is Caroline doing at 2 months old?
-Sleeping between 6 and 8 hours each night (thank you, sweet child of mine!)
-Wearing a size 1 diaper...just barely....she just stopped wearing Newborns at 7wks
-Eating between 4-5 ounces of formula each feeding and just a little bit of breastmilk each day (this lasted until week 9)
-Wearing 0-3 month clothing
-She sleeps in her swing at night (and sometimes with us)
-She loves her bouncy seat and smiles profusely at Roomy the Lion
-Smiling...she just started this and her smile is DARLING!
-Cooing...oh my...she is just a little talker! And so good at it!
-Weighed 10 pounds, 12 ounces at her 2 month check up
-Her length was 22 and 1/4 inches
-She is in the 50th percentile for weight and height but she still looks petite to me!
-Her favorite activity is her bathtime. She just puts her feet on the edge of the tub and looks around like she doesn't have a care in the world. Her Daddy and I do this together and we think it's our favorite time too!
Fortunately, she has not been sick at all. We are so thankful for this. I'm scared to death that she will start to get sick once she starts daycare the first part of January. She'll be about 14 weeks when she starts and I know it could be worse, but still.....
We decorated the Christmas tree this week and I love it! Christmas and Thanksgiving are my favorite times of the year. I love being with our families and I love everything about the season. HAving Caroline will make it all the more special.
I'll try to post some pictures this weekend. I have her baptism and Thanksgiving pictures to post. I really need to be more proficient at downloading our pictures. If you must know, that has been my excuse for not blogging lately. I swear I'll get better!
Hugs-
