April is 2 months old!

We had April's 2 month apointment today and with it a few shots, boo hoo. She gave me sad looks the rest of the day and I could tell her little legs were sore. She is our VERY healthy little girl weighing in at just over 13 lbs which puts her in the 90% percentile on the growth charts. Bethany never has made it over 50% so I asked if there is anything to be concerned about (am I feeding her TOO much?), but they assured me that she is just a well-nursed healthy baby and that being full-term means she is always going to be bigger until they level off between 9 months and 1 year. She should be sleeping longer stretches though so they adjusted her reflux meds and hopefully we'll see a 6 hour stretch at night sometime soon!


She is all smiles for me and Bethany during the day and gives us little coo's to chat when we talk to her. Her head is getting very stable and she likes to push up with her legs on our laps when we hold her. She likes to look at her toys in front of her and has found her fist to chew on and look at when it goes by her face.
By far the cutest thing about her is still her cheeks. Now with the big smiles she has I just want to squeeze her and all those little chins and neck rolls! I need to capture the extent of her cheeks and rolls sometime but she doesn't seem to like the camera. She is all smiles and then the big black camera comes and she frowns and gets a concerned look on her face.


April you love to be held and talked to and just like to hang out with all the excitement in our house! You are a lot more laid back than your sister so we'll see if that continues, and how your personality will continue to develop.

2 month stats:
Height: 22 1/2 in. 50%
Weight: 13 lbs. 1.5 oz, 90%
