Rya had her 2 month check up today. She's up to 11.5 pounds (I think she's actually closer to 12, but she wouldn't stay still on the scale) and 23.5 inches long - almost TWO FEET!! She was not very happy about getting 4 shots (1 in her arm, 1 in her left leg, and 2 in her right leg), but went right to sleep when we got her in the car (Mommy also had the foresight to give her a little Infant Tylenol before we went to the appointment to head off some of the fussiness and fever that might pop up later today or tomorrow). The new doc did mention that there is a slight indentation where her sternum is - probably from her rib cage forming slightly inward. I guess it's pretty common and isn't too much of a concern since Rya is, overall, a very healthy baby. They'll keep an eye on it and do an x-ray at 4 or 6 months just to see how far inward it formed, but it still shouldn't be an issue. I guess Roy has something similar but his formed outward, so it might be a genetic thing. Could be that she grows out of it too...afterall, she was awfully crammed in mommy's tummy!
I can't believe it's been 2 months already! It seems like just yesterday we were waiting so eagerly for her to arrive and now she's growing faster than we can keep up with! I actually had to go out and buy some 3-6 month sleepers and onesies because she's getting too long for her 0-3 month stuff. Shoot - she's even almost too long for her changing table...it's CRAZY! We've gotten into a pretty good bedtime routine and she's sleeping about 6-7 hours a night now, then goes back down for another 2 or so after being fed and changed. Yeah, I know...I'm pretty lucky :)
Anyways...that's the update for now. Rya is doing fabulously and is now anxiously awaiting the arrival of Auntie Renee here sometime next week. YAY :) Hope everyone's week is going well! Take care and baby kisses to all :)
