2 Months

Mom, this is your cute outfit! She looked so cute in it, hmm?

 Yup. Already 2 months tomorrow. Can you believe it? She is so big. I learned something new about her tonight. She loves books! I have a couple black and white books meant specifically for little babies and after a particularly cranky-for-no-good-reason day for her  I broke them out tonight in the hopes she might be interested. She couldn't keep her eyes off of them!  I had tried several times with my other girls at this age with no success whatsoever.
   Just goes to show you how each child is different. I even tried showing them to her when she was (again) super cranky and within 30 seconds she calmed down again and was busy looking at the pictures. I have a magic book! I'll have to get a picture of her when she's looking at it again.
Her two month stats were 22.75 inches long, 11 lbs 2oz, 15.5 inch? head. For her head and her length she is in or around the 90th percentile and for her weight she was around the 50th. She's my heaviest baby for this age and also my longest at this age.

  Also, I'm not thinking this is a good look for Mirren. I am totally intrigued to see what color hair is growing under those short dark locks of hers. I can see a little glimmer of redness, but just a glimmer.

And on a different note, Mirren has an umbilical granuloma. Anyone ever had these with their kids? She has her 2 month checkup tomorrow so I'll ask her doctor but I'm curious what she's going to have to do to make it go away. It's not a big deal, just an annoyance. I should take a picture before we go to the doctor, just so I can remember the important parts of Mirrens first few months.
