2 Months Old

Ella had her two month appointment last Friday. Dr Fine walked into the room and said, "Where did you get that baby?!" She sure has chunked up since our last appointment at 3 weeks. Ella is now 21 1/4 in. long (19 at birth) and weighs 11 lbs. 1 oz. (8 lbs., 3 oz. at birth). She is in the 50th percentile for weight and the 25th percentile for height. Poor thing - she's going to be short like her mommy and daddy! Developmentally she is right on schedule, and Dr. Fine thinks she's doing great. She's still waking up to eat once in the middle of the night but can make it a five to six hour stretch (from 8:30 pm until 1:30 or 2:30 am), and Dr. Fine was pleased with that (although Mommy will be more pleased when she learns to drop that bottle!). We also play the paci in, paci out game from about 5:30 am to 6 am every morning. I'm a pretty bad sport when it comes to playing that game. Otherwise, our little princess is doing beautifully and gets more and more cuddly every day!
