2 Month Checkup, Christmas, Smiley Baby

Ok, so I am a week behind.....but Ashlyn had her two week checkup last Monday. Here is where she is at:

Weight: 11 Pounds 14 Ounces (78%)

Height: 23 Inches (76%) - I thought this was not accurate so I remeasured her myself - I get 25 Inches!

Head: 16 Inches (90%)



2 Weeks Stats:

Weight: 8 Pounds 13 Ounces (89%)

Height: 22 Inches (99%)

Head: 15 Inches (97%)



Christmas was lots of fun - Ashlyn slept through most of it - but she got lots of presents! I forgot my camera (I know - BAD MOM!), but I did take some pictures with my Mom's camera. So I will have to get those from her and post them.....it could be awhile!



I finally caught a smile on camera! So cute! Not the best angle, but you take what you can get!

2 Months Old!

Ashlyn is two months old today! Wow time flies and she is growing like a weed. I tried taking some pictures on her tummy time leaf and in her bumbo chair. She was getting a little crabby so we will have to try some more later.

Ashlyn at two months is......
-Starting to smile "socially" - usually it is just a half smile (we haven't caught one on camera yet, but will keep trying)
-Starting to "talk" quite a bit
-Sleeping pretty well - although every third or fourth night she decides she wants to stay up from 2am - 4am

Work is going good so far, I am getting pretty tired, thank goodness it is Friday tomorrow!

Ashlyn goes for her two month checkup and shots on Monday, so hopefully that goes well.



Happily "plugged-in"....

"Hey! Where did my plug go?????"

A quick picture after Daddy pulled the plug...


Tummy time blanket - Wasn't happy with tummy
time, so we flipped over for a picture.
Hopefully we can get some better pictures later, that is if I can stay awake longer than her!

Back to Work....

Well, I go back to work tomorrow....I am not looking forward to getting up and being ready that early in the morning. I have gotten used to bumming around until about 9-10 o'clock each day. I am also going to miss 'Las Vegas' - the show I have become addicted to since I have been home. Maybe it plays at a different time? Otherwise, I will have to figure out how to work my VCR - wow, I haven't used one of those in awhile. Someday we will join the world of DVR's, but not until we move!

I am not too worried about leaving Ashlyn while I am at work. She will be in good hands with her Daddy. I am not so sure about the first day I have to leave her at Daycare, at least I have three more weeks before that happens.

I don't have any recent pictures (I know, bad mommy!) to post, but I will be sure to get some! Ashlyn will be two months old soon! Technically she was 8 weeks on Saturday - but December 18th will be her 2 month 'birthday'. I did take some pictures on Saturday with Ashlyn and Taylor, but they are on Amy's camera - so I will have to wait for her to e-mail them to me.

Only 10 more days to go until Christmas! Yeah, I am excited. I love Christmas!
