Happy Two Months Ava!



Today Ava had her two month well baby check. She weighed in at a whopping (HaHa) 10 lbs. 9 oz. and was 22 3/4 inches long. Her measurements are fairly average with her height being a bit higher on the growth curve. Believe or not Hayden weighed 13 lbs. 11 oz. at 2 months. Unbelievable. Her shots really bothered her this evening, but it didn't help that Hayden wasn't being very sweet to her. Sometimes he gets really excited and wants to touch her, but it doesn't come out very gentle all the time. But then other times he's really sweet like when he gives her kisses or reaches over to hold her hand when they're in the car. He can just barely reach her hand when they're both in their car seats.

Ava has a bit of a tear duct issue so she got some eye drops since her Dr. thought she also had a touch of conjunctivitis.

Ava is just the sweetest baby. I say that a lot, but she truly is. Two nights this week she's only gotten up once. It's been kind of nice. Our schedule consists of Josh taking the first shift and me taking the second so that way Josh can get a long chunk of sleep before getting up for the day. He doesn't like waking up too close to the beginning of the day because he has a hard time falling back asleep.

Try breast milk in her eye. It helps clear that up. I did it for Luke and Mandy did it for Cole the other day. Cleared it up right away. I know it sounds weird but it works!!

Kristin and her "homeopathic" remedies (just kidding...). I'm all for natural and easy. Love the afgan. Hopefully mom can still crochet/knit by the time I have kids! She may be 75!

Hee hee, that is actually probably the ONLY natural thing I have ever done in my life. It works though!! Of course with Mandy's high pressure boobs she nearly took Cole's eye out, he screamed I guess!! Poor baby!!
