2 Months Old


It wasn't until I took this picture and I compared it to her one month picture that I realized how much she has grown! Lettie is still in size 1 diapers and we are getting into her 3-6 month clothes because she is so long! Lettie girl continues to sleep through the night and doing well at daycare. I am thinking about moving her into her room next weekend... so stay tuned! 

We went and saw Dr. Boe and Ms Lettie is hitting every milestone! When Dr. Boe looked at her weight at her 2 week appointment compared to her 2 month appointment,  he saw she has gained 4 pounds and his response was "Strong work!" It made me giggle. I will have to say it's pretty cool to know that all of her weight gain and nutrition has come from me! (That's the nurse nerd in me!) Lettie also had to get some vaccines, 3 shots and 1 oral :( but she handled it well. We didn't notice any side effects from the vaccines other than she was a little more sleepy than normal. 

Lettie's Measurement
Height: 22 3/4 in = 56th percentile
Weight: 11 lb 14 oz = 60th percentile
Head Circumference: 15 1/2 in = 79th percentile

Workin Momma

Well Lettie and I officially made it through my first week back at work! I am 99.9% sure it was harder for me than it was for her, haha. Monday was definitely the hardest day and of course we were running behind at work and I didn't pick up Lettie until 5:30!  She was the last kid to be picked up (great I'm already that MOM) but we got through it and the babysitter said she did great! Lettie did not have any problems taking a bottle at daycare and the babysitter keeps telling me how wonderful of a baby she is, which I wont lie is really nice to hear. However, Ms. Lettie was in a different outfit every night I picked her up, other than one! I have tried to tell her that these blowouts are not lady like but she apparently has her own opinion! ;) She also continued to sleep through the night this week even with the change of routine! I'm thinking next weekend I am gonna try moving her into her room!

I love how smiley my baby is and it makes dropping her off at daycare and picking her up from daycare that much easier because I know she being taken care of! Here are some pictures from our tough week... ;)

5 Weeks Old

I can't believe my baby is 5 weeks old, I am not sure where the time has gone. Breastfeeding is going great and we have really gotten the hang of things by this point. I call her the milk monster because I am not sure where all of it goes but she sure loves to eat. She is growing like a weed and is finally into her 0 - 3 month clothes and she has graduated into size 1 diapers. She is getting more smiley every day and is awake for longer periods of time. She truly is the happiest baby and (knock on wood) a great sleeper! For the last week she has slept through the night so I hope that continues! Since I am home alone for 5 days out of the week the fact that she is sleeping so well makes me one happy momma! 

Ms. Lettie is sure getting a personality!!! :)
