Audrey is Two Months Old!

Audrey,

You are two months old and PRECIOUS!


Not your best shot, but it was the best I could get!  You weren't too happy.
  • At your doctor's appointment today, you were 24 inches long and 11 pounds 7 ounces.  This puts you in the 97th percentile for height and 75th percentile for weight.  Your head measurement was also in the 75th percentile.
  • You are still wearing a size One diaper.  They seem to fit you pretty well!  We are currently doing a trial run on cloth diapers.  I actually really like them but am scared to make the commitment.  We will see in a couple of weeks how things are going and make the full decision from there.  
  • You wear a three months size in almost everything.  
  • You are smiling and cooing more often now.  We like to have little "conversations" with you and love when you actually talk back to us!
  • You started sleeping through the night on the 18th.  It has been wonderful.  It's amazing how much better I feel throughout the day with a full night's sleep!  Keep it up, girl!
  • You really like the swing.  Parker didn't use it that much when he was a baby, but you love to sleep in it.  Almost every time I put you in there, you fall asleep within five minutes and take a decent nap.  It's great!
  • You are still sleeping in the cradle in our room.  We know you are ready to go in your crib, but Momma doesn't want you to we have to put a special board under your mattress to use the breathing monitor.  This board is under Parker's mattress and crib tent, so we just have to undo all of that to put it in your room.  Having you in our room is fine for now.  I will miss you when you're not in there anymore!
  • You have the sweetest little "mohawk" that has been there since you've been born.  These hairs just don't want to lay down, and I love them!  The rest of your hair is starting to grow in and it looks like a mix between  blonde and red.  I'm probably wrong, but no matter what, I know you'll look so sweet!
  • I love your little ears--they stick out a little but are SO sweet!  :)
  • EVERY time I put you in a "special" outfit, you poop all over it.  There have been two sweet smocked outfits and one regular outfit that I had "saved" for you to wear to look super-cute, and you had major leaky poop in all three of them!  I am scared to put new outfits on you now.

Exhibit A.  The sweet outfit I had you wear on your two-month birthday.  Possibly ruined!



Comparison shot of you and your brother at two months old.  You've got your Momma's eyes and Daddy's ears. 

We are having so much fun watching you develop a personality and can't wait to see what changes the next month will bring!
