2 month Birthday Celebration & Doctor Appointment

We went up on Monday to Donald's parents' house to have dinner and celebrate Miss Abi's 2 month birthday! It was a fun evening with yummy food, cupcakes, pineapple pie, and Starbucks!

"It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to."

Yesterdy we had Abi's 2 month doctor's appointment - the one with shots. BOO. I cried almost as much as Abi! I just kept thinking as we were driving there how up until now she really hasn't had any physical pain outside of gas pain. What a pleasant little world. Goodness, that all changed yesterday. She has been such an amazing little trooper though - she was asleep by the time we left the doctor's office and then proceeded to sleep literally (minus her two feedings, and one quick stop at Target) the rest of the day. WHAT??!! She then followed that awesome nap (if you can call it that) by sleeping through the night. We couldn't believe it. I had gotten the baby tylenol and donald took the rest of the day off in preparation for the marathon that we had heard might follow. We are so thankful that our little lady handled everything so well, and that her little body isn't having too many aches in the aftermath. She came in at an awesome 12 pounds, 9 ounces (90th percentile) and was 23 1/4 inches in length (85th percentile). She does have a mild case of cradle cap (as Donald pointed out, that is such a terrible name) - and it might not clear up for months!! Lots of exfoliation.
