Two Month Check

How is it possible that two months while pregnant drag on and on and yet two months with a newborn fly by in a blur?  I cannot even believe my little Caroline is two months old already.   Here are some fun facts about my girl.

  • She is a beefcake.  She now weighs in at 11lbs, 5 ounces.  She's also 25 inches long. Yowza. 
  • She's already busting out of the three month clothes that her sister passed along to her. 
  • At her last doctors appointment the doctor informed me that she looks like she is ready to start rolling!  What?!
  • Her spit up now rivals her sister.  At night we could go through 5 PJ's before she even hit the bed!
  • She's a talker!  She loves to lay on her boppy and just talk away to us.  
  • She is still a pretty calm and happy baby...until crabby time hits.  Crabby time usually starts about 5pm and goes until about 9pm.  Awful. 
  • Part of what gets us through crabby time is cluster feedings.  It seems like between those hours she has double the amount of bottles she has through out the day.  I looked online where I discovered cluster feedings.   At least it helped give us a reason and something we could do to calm her. 
  • She has a few nicknames already including Hubba Bubba (mommy), Sugar Sugar (mommy and daddy), Magoo (daddy), Sweetie (Lyla), Pixie (Gma Peach b/c of her pointed ears). 
  • She's already had her first cold.  She handled it like a champ.  
  • We haven't quite figured out a good sleep routine.  Basically she's up every two and a half to three hours.  My how things change with the second kid.
