2 Month Check-Up

I can't believe Mikayla is already 2 months old! We went for her two month check-up and shots today. Mikayla is now 10 lbs 6.2 oz and 20 1/4 inches long. That means she has gained exactly 2 lbs since her last visit. The doctor broke it down even further by pointing out that she has gained 32 oz in 32 days! He was very happy with her growth and said she is "perfect". Of course, we already knew that! Mikayla also got two shots today. She cried for a few minutes and then was fine. The worst part was that she looked at me with her precious little eyes and had her lip out like she was pouting. That look just breaks my heart! Thankfully, the nurse was quick to tell Mikayla that it was her that poked her, not Mommy! Anyway, our precious little one is growing like a weed and getting cuter every day! Mommy and Daddy are enjoying 6 hours of sleep at a time on average. Mommy is in heaven! Daddy just can't wait for 8 hours at a time! Here are some of the most recent pictures. Thanks for checking in on us!

Overdue Update!

Wow! How time flies! I started to post all these pictures several weeks ago, but never got around to it. So, here are some now "old" pictures of Mikayla. We have all kinds of new ones since these, but I'll get those posted at a later time. Things are going well. Mikayla is growing like crazy. All the grandparents keep saying, "She looks so much different than the last time we saw her." Which is normally a matter of days. I think they're exaggerating a bit, but oh well! Mikayla is now 2 months old! I can't believe how fast the time has gone. I have to go back to work part-time this week and will return full-time the first week of August. I don't know how I'm going to handle being away from my baby girl. I can't stand the thought of missing all her "firsts". I get teary eyed at just the thought of leaving her! Anyway, take a look at the pics below. We'll post another update after her 2 month doctor appointment this Friday. Thanks for checking in!
