Well Child Check

Lily had her 2 month check up today. She charmed all the nurses and the doctor. She such a little cutie! She smiled and cooed at everyone. I can't believe how much weight she has gained. She weighs 12 pounds! She has almost doubled her birth weight at 2 months. She is now 90th percentile for her weight and 75-90th percentile for height (now 23.25 inches long). She had to get 3 shots and drink a solution. She was a champ. Don't get me wrong- she screamed with the shots but she calmed down quickly and was ok. I gave her some tylenol afterward and she was ok for a while. But then she got sleepy and slept basically all afternoon/evening. She was even opting for sleep over food. When she did wake up she ate some but she was an unhappy fuss-ball. She is sleeping now. We'll see how tonight goes...
As some of you may have heard we moved Lily to her crib in the nursery this week. I had gotten into this bad habit of letting her sleep on my chest. So she ended up in bed with us a lot and I ended up with a backache from sleeping semi-upright. She was not too happy the 1st couple nights we tried to move her. But last night went pretty well. Instead of using the pack'n play in our room we moved her to the nursery. She stayed in her crib all night. She was pretty restless and woke up a lot more than normal but it was light-years better than prior attempts. Hopefully tongiht will go okay- I have doubts because she is not feeling well. Cross your fingers for us!
The video below is from yesterday. Lily loves the mobile above her crib. It's too bad it only lasts a couple minutes- we might need to get a longer playing one.
