I'm Ready for Church Mama! 

Ouch! Hey . . . Whad'ya do that for???

Yesterday I went to the doctor for my two month checkup. The worst part is, I got my very first shot! Mommy cried almost as much as I did, and daddy kissed my head a lot. Mom said she has to schedule an appointment with the Health Department to get the rest done. The rest????? What does she mean, the rest??!!

Mom says I am really starting to grow up. I weigh 9lbs 11oz, and I am 21 1/2 inches long! Dr. Beck said I look perfectly healthy. My weight is in the 25th percentile, and my height is in the 10th. Mom thinks that's funny and says she has no idea where I get my delicate features from!

Guess What??

My daddy comes home today!!

HOORAY!!!!

Wherefore Art Thou Daddy?

Daddy has gone on a mission trip with the teens from church, so it's just me and mommy until Wednesday. I sure am going to miss him. Especially his kisses and snuggles!

Mom is pretty nervous and keeps telling me to be "a good girl". What does she mean? Aren't I always good? :-)

My Parents Left Me!!

Last night mama and daddy went on a date for their anniversary. I am not sure what an anniversary is, but they seemed pretty excited!

A nice couple from our church (I think their names were Jenny and Matt) came over and stayed with me. They were really nice and took really good care of me. I hardly noticed mom and dad were gone!

As for other news, mom and dad decided to try and move me to the next sized diapers (1's). Since newborn diapers are so much more expensive, and size 1's say they will fit 8 to 14 pounds, they thought they would give it a try. But, I pee-pee-ed right through them, twice! So, it looks like I am still too little for big girl dipes. Back to newborn dipes for me! Actually, that makes my mom kind of excited. She said it makes her feel like I am still tiny. She especially needed that encouragement because lately I have been growing out of some of my clothes! That's never happened before! So mom has been pulling things out of my drawer that don't fit anymore. She thinks it's kind of sad. But I think it's cool! I'm a big girl now! I can actually wear 0-3 month clothes! Woo hoo!

I'm Two Months Old (and I look like my dad!)

New Things I Do Now That I Am 6 Weeks Old!

Here are some new things that I have been doing since last week:

I like to pat my hair when I am tired. I twirl my fingers through it, but thankfully, I don't pull!

I don't sleep as soundly through my naps. Generally I will wake up once or twice and cry for mom or dad. They are trying to help me figure out how to stay asleep. Whenever they come in to give me my pacifier or pat my bottom, I smile at them really big and act like I want to play!It's a fun game.

Also, my new favorite thing is playtime when I wake up from my naps. Lately I have been very alert when I wake up and love to stare at mom and dad. When they talk to me I smile lots and have even come close to a laugh! Mom and dad are enjoying this new play time, even though they would prefer it to be after I eat!

I have also started to coo and make sounds other than cries. I don't do it very often, (mostly during playtime when I am really happy) but mom and dad think it is the cutest thing in the world.
