2 Month Check Up

Last week Molly had her 2 Month check up with the pediatrician.  She did great and got a good report from the doctor.  Just like big sister, Molly loved wiggling on the exam  table to hear the crinkling of the paper.  She is on target for her development and is continuing to grow and be healthy.  Molly got 3 shots and did amazing.  She barely cried and wasn't cranky or febrile at all the rest of the day.   Mommy was so grateful.  Avery loved watching Molly get her check up.  I think she thought it was her own episode of  Doc McStuffins. 

Two Month Statistics:

Weight: 11 pounds 7 ounces (62%)

Height: 23.25 inches (80%)
Head: 15.5 inches (62%)

Here is a blog post on Avery's 2 month check up for comparrisons.

Molly 2 Months

Molly turned 2 months May 24th.  I managed to get pictures taken that day but never did a post because we left for the beach that afternoon.  The last 2 months have been busy.  We are still adapting to life with 2 little girls.  Molly is very easy going and fits perfectly into our family.  Molly is a very happy baby.  She is still our tall girl, but is starting to get that adorable baby pudge.  In the last month, Molly has gone to the beach, pool, church and lots of play dates with her sister.  Still not sleeping through the night on a consistent basis, but is starting to get into a steady nap and feeding routine.  Mommy is hoping that Molly will be sleeping through the night by the time she goes back to work in 2 weeks.  She is adored by all, and her big sister is her biggest fan.  Avery loves her sister and is always kissing, hugging and checking on little sister.

Molly at 2 Months:

• Babbling and cooing. She can recognize our voices and faces.  So sweet!
• Smiles a lot and makes adorable facial expressions.
• Sleeps in her crib at night and for some naps. Takes great naps in her swing and car seat too!
• Waking up once at night , but has gone a few nights without waking.
• Loves her piano floor mat, but no a huge fan of tummy time.
• Loves the water and bath time.  Only cries when we take her out of her little tub.
• Wearing 3 month clothing and size 1 diapers.
• Breastfed, but is great at taking a bottle too!
• Doesn't are much for a paci, but has found her hands and sometimes sucks her fingers and thumb.
• Loves kicking her feet and moving her arms.

We love watching Molly grow over the past 2 months. 

Being parents to these 2 amazing girls is more than we could ever ask for.

We are so blessed that Avery was able to be apart if the 1 year old class at St. Andrews Mothers Morning Out. It was very beneficial for her, as well as mommy and daddy. She had 2 amazingly sweet teachers, Miss Caryn & Miss Erin. Avery loved her teachers and buddies in her classroom. She became a toddler and learned so much this year. We are very grateful for all our new friends and look forward for the start of school next year in the 2 year old room. Until then we are enjoying our summer with trips to the beach, pool days, and many play dates with friends.

Avery on the first and last day of MMO 1 year old 2012-2013 school year

They had a fun end of the year party.  After eating lunch and enjoying many treats, the kids went outside for some fun games and water activities.  Avery and some of her friends decided it would be fun to cool off in the water tubs.  Her and Millie hoped right in with their party dresses and shoes on.  It was adorable and the girls had a blast.  We are very grateful for all the sweet friendships we have made this year.
