Shots Oh Noooo!

Yep, Seanna received the dreaded shots yesterday during her 2 month check up and she weathered them well, but boy-oh-boy is she grumpy today (as would anyone else)!! She now is in the 95% for height and weight at 24" tall and 13lbs 6oz! The doctor made sure to tell me that she is going to be a "tall girl"... I'm sure she will be feeling better tomorrow so hopefully we can go for some walks and stuff around the local lake.

Have a great weekend!

Travelling girl!

Seanna had her first flight this week on a Delta flight and did absolutely wonderfully! The fear on the other passengers faces when we sat down was priceless (Wes and I were always THOSE type of travellers too so we recognize the looks easliy)! She LOVED watching the flight attendants work during their beverage services and wanted to see what everyone else was doing on her flight--she didn't sleep the entire trip (both ways) and was too busy to really eat on the way out. She met all of my family members and attended two different parties that were thrown (one for my father's side of the family and one for my mother's side). The second party was interuppted on Sunday with high winds from Hurricane Ike coming through the city which knocked out power during the party and for several days around the area. We thank goodness had access to generators and did some high end camping in my sister's and mother's homes with candles and flashlights. Everyone loved seeing her and she was such a SUPERSTAR the entire trip. She had nothing but smiles for everyone!


Tomorrow is her two month check up with the doctor so we will let you know what she says!

Sleeping Through the Night and Other Big Developments this Week!


Seanna had a big developemental week this week!! After her exiciting hotel visit, she had not slept through the night again until this week--she has now slept four nights in a row through the night and I believe we are over the hurdle of the evening feedings. We head up to bed around 7:30pm each evening (otherwise she gets overstimulated and will stay up past 11pm) and then we play for just about 30 minutes. She normally will drift off to sleep somewhere between 8 to 9 pm and then sleeps until 6 or 7am the following morning with a giant smile on her face! She also started taking 5 ozs per feeding this week and is not spitting up nearly as much as she had been. She also is trying so hard to crawl!! She gets so frustrated that she can't go anywhere, but her little legs are so strong and she is using her hands to pull herself on the mat or carpet or anything else that she can grab onto for leverage. She also is using her hands to swing at her little dangling angel that hangs from her playmat. She wasn't able to do that last week... all in all, she had a pretty big week. On top of it all, we stopped off at the doctor's office to see how much she weighs now and she is 12 lbs and 6 oz! She is doing absolutely awesome on her development milestones for only two months old and is also fitting into 3-6 month clothes now. We have placed an area on the blog to keep track of her developmental progress in case you are interested in seeing her progress.
