Quick Update

I know I need to post more pictures; she is growing and changing so much. I plan to do that soon. For now, just a quick update from her 2 month check up that she had at 9 weeks old, a week and a half ago... try to figure that one out. :)

At her check up she was 23.5 inches long (grown 3 inches since birth!! crazy!), 11 pounds 10 ounces (just one ounce shy of gaining four pounds since birth!), and her head was 15.5 inches around. Too bad they don't measure her cute little chubby, chunky legs... they are getting rounder and rounder. She is definitely growing and doing well.

She had four vaccinations at her two month visit also, one oral (which she actually liked) and three shots (which she hated!). She started crying and then took a breath and was crying so hard no sound was coming out. It was really sad, but Daddy was able to comfort her pretty quickly. Poor thing.

She has also started sleeping longer at night! For a week now, she has been sleeping any where from 5.5-7 hours in a row before she wakes up to eat! Then she eats until she falls asleep and usually sleeps the rest of the night until around 7-8 in the morning. Night time feedings are MUCH more enjoyable when you aren't doing them every 2-3 hours!

AnnaLynn is so precious and we just love her so much! She is learning all the time, constantly looking around trying to take everything in. She has learned that she can grab different objects and hang on to them. Her favorite things to grab are two little toys (one is a bunny rabbit her YaYa knitted for her) and her car seat blanket which YaYa knitted also. She occasionally will grab a hold of my hair and hang on, but that's only happened a few time so far; usually when I'm changing her and I get really close to her face to talk to her. She likes it and shows her excitement with a little hair tugging.

I'll post pictures as soon as I can them off of Tony's camera.
