Ok, So I will get back to blogging. But our furnace has been out since Christmas Eve…I’m trying to disassemble Christmas…so the shenanigans at my house are very high at the moment. I actually have a new blog project…. I will unveil shortly.
McKenna was Two Months old on December 30th….the same day my Dad turned 47!!!!!!!!!!!! He’s getting up there, ehe? He’s 47, I’m 26 and McKenna is 9 weeks…I think. She’s either 9 or 10, I don’t have a calender ready…and quite frankly the week thing is annoying to me…How about she will be three months old on January 30th? That’s better.
Ok, so at Two Months Old…McKenna is 24″ long and just shy of 13 lbs. 12lbs. 15.5oz! That is a 4 inch growth and a 4 pound gain. Exactly, like to the tenth of an ounce… (she was 8.15.4 at Birth and 20″). At her check up she passed with flying colors…Doctor Marilyn said she is at minimum at a 4 month level for all her milestones and growth development. At two months McKenna can hold her head all day by herself, rolls from belly to back, when placed on tummy she pushes her arms up and locks her elbows so she does “COBRA” move in yoga terminology. She will hold that for 10 minutes if there is something interesting enough in front of her. She talks back when you have a convo with her. She follows our cat with her eyes ALL DAY LONG. (Which makes for very hard feeding times now)…She knows her mommy and daddy very well, she smiles, laughs and talks to us all day. She turns her head to a sound or your voice. She does like a snake crawl in which she just pushes with her feet and will slowly inch her way forward. She loves to stand if you hold her arms. She grabs her toys that dangle above her head in the play gym. She gets pissed at those guys really quickly though and starts yelling at them.
The “word” she says most the time is “doo”…not “goo” but “doo”. She takes her medicine (prilosec for reflux) very easily now…just stick the dropper in her mouth and she closes it and sucks it out. The nurse was quite impressed with that yesterday with the oral vaccine she got..All in all she is super healthy, super smart, and super strong…. And I’m so not saying this becuase she is my kid… I swear I’m not ;o)
She is 81% percentile for weight, 85% for height and 85% for head circumference…what a proportionate little stinker!!

She is a cutie! It’s no wonder you are proud. Her gross motor skills sound a lot like how my daughter was at that age. Enjoy each moment it goes so fast.
