Well today we took Ashlyn in for her 2 month appt and we are happy to say she is growing and developing right on schedule. She weighed in at 11 lbs 3 oz and is 23 in. long. The doctor said she is in the 75th percentile for both height and weight. WE are hoping she gets Josh's height gene and it looks like she will, yeah! The only sad part of the appointment was that she had to get her shots. She actually did pretty well. I'm glad that our ped. makes the nurse's hold her down and lets the parent's comfort her. It makes it easier to calm her down and then she also doesn't get mad at mom and dad. She's actually been really happy and has only cried once since being home. She feels like she's getting a slight fever, which is to be expected, so we'll be watching her to make sure she's okay. Right now she's just laying on the floor watching her daddy play Halo with Uncle Neil and she's been talking and smiling like crazy. It's actually funny to watch her and listen to her as she discovers her voice. The other day it actually sounded like she was trying to laugh, it'll come in a little while, but it's funny to hear it slowly developing. She's also discovering her hands more and likes to take her plug out of her mouth and try to grab things like her blanket. WE love this little girl and are so grateful that she is blessing our home. As the months continue to go by it'll be fun to see her personality develop.
Well I'd post a picture of her with this post but I don't want to mess up the internet connection for the guys, so I'll have to post tomorrow an updated pic, hopefully of her smiling.
