2 month check-up

ellie had her 2 month check-up on monday. that means shots- yuck! ellie did beautifully. she barely flinched on the first one, in her left leg. when the second one came along, in her right leg, her eyes got bigger than i've ever seen before and a tear came from her eye. then the last one, also in her right leg, made her cry. but by the time the nurse put the bandages on, ellie had stopped crying, and as i put her back in her carseat, she was cooing and smiling again. thank goodness!!! here are ellie's 2 month stats:
weight: 11 lbs. 7 oz. (75th percentile)
length: 23 1/2 inches (75th percentile)
head circumference: 15 1/2 inches (unsure of percentile)

todd and ellie enjoying some tummy time together:


ellie discovered her thumb a few weeks ago. it is so cute when she sucks on it, plus it buys me a few extra minutes of sleep in the morning! it isn't so cute, however, when she sticks her whole hand in her mouth and gags!!!
i can already hear todd's family cheering with her blanket and my family plotting their revenge!

Was it the whole hand, or the blanket that made Ellie gag?! At least she had the joy of a thumb to help her sleep under that red one. She will have plenty of "cover time" with the BYU blue blanket those two weeks we will be babysitting. Actually, the colorful bugs blanket is still my favorite.

I can't believe she is already 2 months old and SO cute!! Wow! I would have to agree with the above post that it was probably the blanket that made her gag. Blue is such a better color! :) Sorry Todd.

I'd gag too if someone put a blanket like that on me!
