This girl is quite possibly the cutest human on the face of the planet. She has changed our world in the most wonderful way. She goes to the doctor for her 2 month check up on Monday so we'll get the official weight and length then, but for now according to our scale she's weighing in at a whopping 12 pounds!
**Doctor's visit update (5/2/16)**
Our scale must be off at home because at the doctor's office this morning she weighed 11.2 pounds (54%ile), measured at 21 3/4 inches long (25%ile) and her little head was 36 1/2 iches (6%ile). She was a champ for her shots and cried for a while but calmed down quickly. Thankfully Alex was there to hold her, because I am a wimp and sat in the corner. Other than that, her appointment went well and she's growing great and the doctor has no concerns.
Some of her favorite past times are long walks in the stroller, taking baths, riding in the Moby wrap and shopping at Target. She has started sleeping for longer stretches at night 5 to 6+ hours in a row. Naps are a little more inconsistent, but she's getting there and her swing is a lifesaver. She is eating every 3 hours during the day and most days start promptly at 7am. She has started smiling, but you have to work for it and after diaper changes, she coo's happily on her changing pad. I am back at work twice a week for a few hours after her 10am feeding and she usually sleeps while I'm working, but if she's awake her daddy and grandma Sue are happy to entertain her.
Before Margo was a twinkle in our eyes, I saw this onesie-in-a-bag at the toy store and had to buy it. Mysterio predicted that Margo will be:
I hope to pass on my love of polka dots, thankfully she looks good in them :)
We got a Wubbanub on the claim that they help the pacifier stay in the baby's mouth. So far it works as advertised...except when Moose takes it from her. He's only taken it once, but he always seems interested when it's close by.
It's hard to believe that May is rapidly approaching and she is two months old! I can't wait for this summer with her and to see how she continues to grow and change.
