Claire had her two month check up on Friday, May 29th. Her length was 22 1/2 inches which put her in the 50th percentile for length. Her weight was 10 lbs 4.5 oz, which put her in the 35th percentile for weight. Her head circumference was 16 1/2 inches putting her in the 60th percentile in head size. She is one smart lady with that big brain! She also received 3 vaccinations; one oral and two shots. Adam was able to go to this appointment with me and he sat beside her during the vaccinations. Overall Claire did well. She cried but calmed down pretty quickly. She was very sleepy that day. Whe was actually extra cuddly that day and I enjoyed being able to hold and comfort her.
We also gave Claire her first bottle this week. I wasn't sure how she would do with it, but she took it without any problems. Adam gave her the first bottle on Friday night. At first she just played with it, not sure what to do. Eventually she caught on the it contained food! Adam enjoyed feeding her as she stared at him the entire time.
She also stayed with a babysitter for the first time this week. I had to go to school for 5 hours for closing day and do some work in my room. Lauren Arnold came and watched her for 3 hours. ( Adam stayed with her the first two hours I was gone, and then had to go to work.) That was the longest I had been away from her.
She is 9 weeks old and becoming more fun each day! She gives us smiles all day long, watches us walk across the room, looks at toys and "talks" to us. Sometimes I feel like my heart is going to burst from an overflow of love for her!
She's growing fast! I bet it was hard to leave Claire, but Lauren has to be a great babysitter! I think she needs a baby of her own....
