2 Months Old!

Gabrielle Sophia Taylor is two months old! Can you believe it? She is doing wonderfully and getting more personality by the second. She has still been sleeping 9-11 hours at a time during the night which is great! When she was just a tiny baby she would scream and scream throughout the day and evening for no reason...now when she cries we know something is wrong - either hungry, bored, or just on her way to getting tired; it has been quite the transition!

We went to the pediatrician today for her two month well checkup and she is currently:

10lbs 10oz - 44th percentile
22 inches long - 35th percentile
and her head is in the 80th percentile...not sure of the exact measurement

Our little one still has a big head but the doc said it is fine - she just has a big head! She also got two shots today; one in each chubby little thigh, and one oral vaccine. She is starting to finally get some of that baby chub. She even has little leg rolls now instead of those scrawny infant chicken legs. The doctor says that the baby chub will peak at about six months, just in time for summer!

One thing I did find out is that one side of her head is pretty flat. It makes sense now that I think about it, because both her crib and pack 'n play face the same way so that the stimulation is to one side. I've changed her position now so that she is looking the other way in the hopes of evening out her poor little lob sided head. We also need to increase her tummy time. That is one time that it really bothers me to see her cry though...she just looks so helpless and pathetic laying on her stomach screaming and flailing her arms and legs trying to turn herself over. Oh well, I guess that's why I'm the parent. Gotta make her do it!

As always, here are some photos of the little darling baby........


I'm two months old and loving it!

Who me? Yes, I know I'm cute.
Looking at her toysWondering where all Dad's hair went after his haircut

Tell me she will always be this innocent :)

What a sweet little angel....
