Ten weeks and growing!

Evelyn had her two month check up on Thursday.  Evelyn is now 23 and 1/2 inches long. She weighs 11 lbs and 5 oz. She is in the 80th % for height and 50th % for weight. Her doctor said she is just perfect, growing appropriately for her age and gender. Hubby was a bit worried about her weight, but I was the same way as a baby. Her doctor thinks Evelyn will be tall and slender. She did have to get her first round of shots and a drink. Mommy was more upset then baby by the whole ordeal. Evelyn cried when they gave her the shots but was soon comforted by me. She did very well and even dozed off not long after the whole ordeal. Yesterday she was running a bit of a fever, but nothing above 100 degrees, which the doctor said was perfectly normal. 

Yesterday was a big night out for myself and my husband. We went to a wedding and were away from Evelyn for the longest amount of time yet. Thankfully my mom was able to baby-sit and Evelyn did very well with her. Hubby and I had a wonderful time eating, dancing, and playing Rock Band at the wedding. We missed our daughter but it was nice to get out and act like grown-ups. Today we are taking it easy. We are heading over to his parents for a dip in their pool.


Evelyn is such a bright girl She smiles, "talks", loves to play and explore the world. She is easy going and has discovered her hands and can self-soothe a bit with them. Evelyn also rolled over once, from her tummy to her back but so far she has not done it again. She can get onto her side but then gets stuck. We go to Baby and Me classes every Wed and Evee seems to enjoy them. All three of us are looking forward to our trip up North next month. Here is a picture of Evelyn on her two-month brithday:
