2 Months old

Sophia had her 2 month appointment this morning - complete with her first set of vaccines. :-(  She is doing really well - 11lbs 4 1/2 oz, 22 1/4 inches long. She is in the 66% for height, 63% for weight, and 50% for head circumference. It was awful to hear her scream when she got the vaccines, but she started screaming as soon as her leg was wiped with the alcohol, so I'm hoping that the actual shots didn't hurt her that much. Luckily, Pat was able to come with me and hold my hand so I didn't freak out as much as I expected.

Sophia has also started to grace us with longer stretches of sleep at night. Over the weekend she slept through the night 2 nights in a row! Last night she slept 7 hours - which meant she was up at 4:30am, but that's still a looong stretch of sleep. :-)  She is smiling more and more, but I can never quite catch one on camera.  She is gurgling and cooing and is quite the wiggle worm...I think any day now she will be rolling over!

As for me, I'm still trying to get a handle on housework and cooking while taking care of her. She doesn't really like to be in one place for too long, and if she can't see me she starts to cry. It definitely makes it difficult to get anything done during the day. My plan for maternity leave had been to have a clean house and dinner ready every night....not happening yet! Hopefully I'll get the hang of it before summer is over!
