Newborn Christa
One month
Six weeks
Today - two months!
More pictures have been requested, so here they are! Today, Christa is exactly 2 months old. Wow - time sure does fly! She's getting bigger and bigger everyday. She and I are "celebrating" this occasion with a Dr. appointment and shots. Poor thing - I wish I could take her out for ice cream afterwards. Hmmm... ice cream - that sounds good. Since I'm breastfeeding, me eating ice cream is like giving her ice cream, right?? Maybe we will go get one of those coke floats from Wendy's (if you haven't tried one yet, you really should). I fully expect this shot experience will be as traumatic for me as it is for her. I remember when they brought her to me in the hospital after doing who knows what to her - her face was all red and puffy with spots on it, and she just looked like she'd been through the ringer. It was obvious she had been screaming. I felt TERRIBLE!
Well, I'm going to go get dressed and pre-medicate my daughter with Tylenol. Oh, by the way, I'll be updating this site once or twice a week. I'll definitely update on Thursdays and the 28th of each month, and if anything else interesting happens in between, I'll post something then too.***Post Dr. update - Christa's current stats***
weight: 10lb 2oz (50th percentile)
height: 21 3/4 inches (40th percentile)
head circumference: 15 3/4 inches (90th percentile)
*note* the head circumference is actually down from her birth HC of 95th percentile (hence one of the reasons I was induced a week early). She has her daddy's huge head!
Shots were tolerated with moderate angry crying.
