Lindsey had her 2 month check-up today. She is now 12 lbs. 10 oz., and 23 1/2 inches long. (Around 85th percentile for weight and 88th for height- is what I think he said) Poor thing got 5 shots and one oral medication, but calmed down pretty quickly afterwards. Her usual routine these days is to go to bed for the night between 9:15 and 10:30 pm, wake up for a feeding from 3-4:30am, and then wake up again around 7 am. She has slept from 10:30 pm-5:30 am twice so far, which I am counting as "through the night".

I'm not complaining! She goes down pretty easily in her crib in her own room at night. She will find her thumb and wiggle around until she dozes off. She usually eats a total of 6 times in 24 hrs and is happy after she eats until she gets tired. She will coo and smile at you and look at you with those big blue eyes. Then, she sleeps in my arms, in the swing, the sling, or sometimes in her carseat. Rarely has she taken her daytime nap in the crib. Hopefully that will change soon. She likes to be on the go- thank goodness because I don't think she is going to have a choice! She can roll over from her tummy to her back and hold her head up pretty well. She has also taken to sucking her thumb (it is really cute, but I probably won't think so in a few years). She will tolerate the pacifier
sometimes to drift off to sleep, but when she doesn't w

ant it, it really makes her mad! She enjoys the sling and being outside, but does not enjoy the car very much. She did pretty well last weekend when we went to Temple, but the real test will be this weekend when we drive to Houston!
