Doctors Appointment # 3

On Friday, Allie went to the doctor for her two month check up. The doctor said that everything looks great. Allie is really healthy and doing really good. She weighs 11.5 pounds. Her length is 22 1/2 inches! She thought that some of the things she was doing were more like that of a four month old. She laid her on her tummy and she raised herself up and looked all around. She almost rolled over a couple times too. The whole time she was on the exam table, she wiggled and kicked and moved. The doctor said we are going to have a busy little girl, and she's going to keep us on our toes. :) We kind of figured that one out before being told Friday. :) Such a blessing to have a healthy little girl!!! God is so good!!!
Allie babe had to have four vaccines by shots- in her legs. Two in each leg. She also had to have one vaccine orally. Poor baby. She screamed and screamed. She was prety fussy that night. She wanted to be held a lot (mommy and daddy didn't mind at all), and she woke up three times in the night too. She hasn't been eating like she was before the shots, and still is fussy at times. I'm sure it is because of the shots. Poor baby! We're on the upward swing of things though. Each day she seems happier and more cheerful and not as fussy. She's backed down to eating about 5 ounces, but she spreads it out during longer time frames. She'll nibble two or three and then wait an hour and drink another one and then finish it later.
She's started smiling more and she gets bored more easily too. She's also found her hands. She loves to hold them and play with her fingers. She puts them to her mouth more, and she grabs ahold of our hands when we feed her and holds on through most of the feeding. Pretty precious!
I think that's all that's new. :) Have to write this stuff down now, so that I don't forget someday!
