Well, we finally made it to your 2 month check up. As expected, you are perfect. But here are some details:
You weighed in at 12 pounds and a full 24 inches tall! That's 75% in weight and 95% in height. Not surprising at all considering your sister was off the chart multiple times with her height. Doc said you were smiling perfectly, but was a bit concerned about your head shape - apparently you are partial to laying on a certain side. He said it's nothing for us to get too concerned about, just make a point to lay you on the other side. I told him that was hard considering you sleep 8+ hours straight, and when you sleep, I sleep! But I'll try. And yeah, that's right. The last 2 nights you've slept from about 10-10:30 to 7:30!!!!! We were all awake, just watching you wondering when you were going to join us this morning. Doc gave me a high five for that - he didn't seem to concerned, huh.
Your sister went with us to the doc today and she was quite the entertainment for us all. She let EVERYONE know that she was not sick and that you were the one who was sick, the receptionist, the nurse, the other nurse that walked by, and the doc all were informed first thing. And when the doctor came in and started asking questions about you - like "How is Miss Kate" or "She eating good?" Abigail was first to answer, not me! She said you were good and that yes, you liked your bottles. The doctor continued to carry on a conversation with her rather than me, and of course, she let him know you were the sick one, not her. When he started poking and prodding you, she was right up in his business. There was a stool and she just scooted it right up under him, watching his every move, and trying to imitate most. We both stopped her when she tried to stick her finger in your mouth! She's going to make a great doctor one day, but we don't need her to practice on you. Oh, and when that nurse came in to give you your 2 shots - man alive you should have seen the dirty looks your sister gave her! I actually was laughing, it was so evil. It totally was a "What in the WORLD are you doing to my sister" look. Thankfully all it took was a little hug from your mom and you were settled back down. Pretty impressive if you ask me. And Sister picked out a princess sticker for you, which settled her down. It had 2 princesses on it, which I felt was very appropriate. You've done just great with your shots, sleeping most of the day with a little play time once we got back home.
Overall, a great 2 month check up. I think for the 4 month we might leave Dr. Sis at home though! She might start having anxiety attacks when seeing a nurse :)
Love you sweet thing!
