Does she look like me?

  
Hmmm....let me know what you think!!

Upcoming dr. visit

So the 2 month immunizations are coming up on Thursday. I'm already worrying about her and how I'm going to react to her getting poked. I never realized how much harder it is on the parents. I think back to when I was working in pediatrics, and I'd have to help hold a child for a shot or i.v. poke. I always thought to myself..."why are those parents getting so worked up? it's just a little poke".....now I get it! I'm terrified of seeing her get stuck....and am totally dreading it. I read that breastfeeding right before or during the shots can help with the pain. I'm going to try that, and I'll be giving her some Tylenol right before as well. Hopefully that will help...and she won't hate her mommy afterwards!! :)

In other news.....we got our first giggle last week. I was singing a song to her and she totally busted a gut. That was the best thing I've ever heard in my life!! She did it again a couple days later so DH got to hear her over the phone. I can't wait till she's doing this all the time!!

2 months old!

Can't believe it. She's 2 months old! Where has the time gone? We are so thankful for her everyday, and can't remember what life was like before her! Here's the new video of pictures from her second month. Enjoy!

Milestones Reached So Far....

Our little girl is 7 weeks old already! She's smiling all the time at her Mommy & Daddy. This past weekend at church she smiled at someone else for the first time. It was so cute! She's already started cooing at us, and is starting to hold her head up by herself when I burp her. She's not a big fan of tummy time, but we do it everyday...even if it's for 5 minutes :) We're working on trying to roll over...but I think that might take a little more time. 

I'm amazed at how big she's gotten already. We're wearing 3-6 months clothes for the length. She's gonna be a tall girl I think. At her 1 month check up she was already 22 1/2 inches, so I have a feeling her 2 month check up is going to shock us too.

I had my postpartum check up yesterday and everything was great. I'm still having some soreness occasionally...and the dr. said that it will probably take anywhere from 9-12 months before I'm completely healed. One more week until I can start vacuuming again :)
