Hard Day

Avery turn 2 months old today. It is so hard to believe we have had we for 2 months now and almost just as hard to believe that we use to not have her at all!!
She is such a joy and I LOVE every second of being her mom! I feel so bless to have such a little angel in my life and humbled that our Heavenly Father entrusts us to raise her!
Her doctor (whom I totally love and would recommend to anyone, Dr. Strasser) gave her a clean bill of health and says she is right on track.
Here is the low down on her stats:
Length: 23.4 inches 76%tile
Weight: 9lb 8oz 18%tile
Head Circ.: 38cm 30%
She is a little one!
Along with her clean bill of health she got FOUR vaccines. One is a liquid that she had to drink and THREE were terrible mean shots right in her thighs (notice the band aids). She did not approve and has been having hard day ever since. It will be interesting to see how tonight goes (she has been sleeping about 8 hours at night, 5 of the last 7). Bless her little heart, I am sure she will be back to her happy self again soon!

Happy Baby

Several weeks ago our little cutie started smiling at us and it melts our hearts!!!
At first it was one every couple days and now it is several every day! She is especially happy in the morning and we sit and smile at each other.
It is my favorite time of the day!





Especially considering the nights have been hard on both of us lately. Poor little thing has been fighting sleep like crazy! We will get through it.
I LOVE that she is smiling and that I know at least sometimes she is happy to be in our family:)
