2 Month Check Up

On February 3rd, Lola turned 2 Months! Today she went in for her 2 Month Well Visit - translation - check her weight and stick her with needles. Thankfully she did incredibly well. She only cried for a couple of seconds. Luckily when they weighed her at 6 lbs 14 ounce (well below her birth weight) the scale was simply off balance since that would mean she's progressively losing weight rather than gaining it. Sigh of relief - I'm not a horrible mother and my child is not starving.

Two Things about our Lola

1. Our child is a human lint trap. Everyday I find all sorts of fuzz clutched tightly in her little hands. I guess the hands have it until her belly button gets bigger.
2. She makes the most pitiful silent cry before she lets out a wale - chin quiver and everything. It is somehow incredibly sad and somewhat funny.
