Knock on Wood

This week Kate went to the pediatrician and got her 2 month check-up. She weighs 10 lbs 15 oz and is 22.5 inches long. She is in the 5oth percentile in weight and height and 25 percentile in head size. I always think her head looks big but I guess I'm wrong...

She is smiling up a storm and cooing a lot lately but only when she is well-rested and well-fed but it is so amazing to watch her face light up. I need to catch some better pictures of that.

AND she is sleeping through the night (knock on wood). Every night this week she goes down around 9 o'clock and sleeps through until 4 or 5 am. As all moms know when you haven't had a good nights sleep since you were 30 weeks pregnant this milestone is a pretty big deal!!

Last weekend one of my best friends, Susan, her mom Judy and daughter Reagan came to visit and meet Kate. We had a wonderful time and I'm so glad I have the connection of motherhood with Susan now, it's another amazing experience we can share together.

Here are some new pictures. Thanks for stopping by!

Stole some of these pictures from Susan's blog, since she has a nice SLR camera and caught some good shots...


Reagan was quite interested in Kate's pacifier

I was putting Kate down for some "Tummy Time" on the beautiful quilt her Great-Grandma Gauthey made her. It didn't quite go to plan since she fell asleep not long after but Biggio came and decided to keep watch over her. He is such a great big brother!!
