2 Months Old!!!

So crazy how time flies by. My little baby is now 2 months old. She had her first shots done on Mon. Poor thing of course was upset. It is so sad to sit there and have to help pin her down so the nurses can poke her in the legs and cause her pain. Makes me want to cry too. She only cried really for a few seconds though. So it wasn't too bad. I was actually surprised that she didn't cry even longer. She now weighs 10 lbs 2 oz. Such a big jump from starting out at 6 lbs 7oz. She is also 23 inchs long. The chart says she is in the 30 percent for weight and 74 percent for height. So she is a long skinny baby. :) So funny though how others react when they see your baby. I had a woman come up to me today while I was at Wal-mart and thought my baby looked big. I figure she can't be that big if she is only in the 30 percent range. Either way I am loving her chunky cheeks that are starting to form now. She is also starting to smile a lot. It is so cute and funny to watch her smile. My other girls love talking to her and making her smile too. I think it is cute that Kaylin is finally enjoying her baby sister too since it seems to her that making Ava smile is a fun game. lol

This was the best I could do on her smile at the time. She normally smiles much bigger. Such a stubborn little baby.

School has started again as most of you know. Madi's first day of Pre-shool was today, Tues. Aug 23rd. She was really excited to be attending Kathleen's at home Pre-school called Creative Learning. She was so happy to see her best friends Mckell and Mckinley once again. I am sure it will be a great experience for her once more and prepare her for Kindergarten next year. So crazy to think about. Poor Kaylin was the only one upset today while Madi got to stay and learn Kaylin had to come home with me. She cried but I hope school will motivate her in becoming potty trained. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Also the first Sunday of this month Aug 7th we were able to get Ava blessed. My dad happened to be the one who gave her the blessing. It was a very sweet blessing from him. I love my dad and am very grateful that he did this for me and Ava. Afterwards we had a nice little brunch at my house with my family and Bill's. I am so grateful for those who were able to make it. My sister Nickie was even able to squeeze in the time and see Ava get blessed since she had a crazy schedule of seeing 3 baby blessings that Sunday. CRAZY!! I feel truely blessed and I feel like the lord is watching over me and my family. :)

The only downer was I wasn't able to find her cute headband. Oh well.

I love my girls. :)
