Scarlett just had her 2 month check up this morning and she is getting pretty big :) She's almost as big as Boston was at birth now haahah.. crazy. She is at 8 lbs 7 oz and is now a little over 21 inches long. So she's really long and pretty skinny still. I think that the only reason that she actually weighs as much as she does is because I just moved her over to formula and she is now actually getting a little bit more fat on her (thank goodness!!) Even though the fomula is harder on her belly and makes it hard for her to poop, she's getting bigger and sleeps better and is in general a better, happier baby girl :) - The doctor said that she's doing really well and that she has really good neck strength in holding up her head and that she has really great lungs - probably she was crying the entire time he was poking her with his tools hahaha. Maybe he had cold hands or something.
At the pediatricians they have the little bed that you set the babies up on and along the back of the bed (on the wall) they've put a wall, so when the babies are laying down they can see themselves in the mirror. Scarlett thinks that this is the coolest thing and gets pretty happy when she sees herself and feels the crunchy paper under her naked back and legs. The Doctor, Doctor Mumford, tells Boston that he has to watch the horses out the window to make sure they don't run away. This distracts Boston just long enough to be able to talk to me about what's going on and how things are. Boston asks Dr. Mumford at least 50 questions before we leave and he is extremely patient and kind to Boston and his social nature :)
The last picture of Scarlett on this post is MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!! She just keeps getting cuter! I can't wait to see her again! And Boston too... he seems like such a sweet big brother. Give them hugs and kisses from me!
