Eve’s 2 month checkup

I took Eve in for her two month checkup today.
No surprises. She’s a healthy little baby. She weighed in at
12lbs 14oz (about a pound and a half more than last month) and
23.5″. I think the doctor said she is in the 90th percentile
for both. I brought up the fact that Eve seems to spit up a ton
(sometimes she seems to spit up more than she nurses!!) and the
doctor said that as long as she is happy/content (she is) and
growing (clearly, she is!) then there is nothing to worry
about. I kind of figured that, but it was good to hear anyway.
We ended the visit with her first round of vaccinations. She
got three shots in the leg and a new oral vaccine for
Rotovirus. She didn’t much care for the oral vaccine, but she
handled the shots like a champ! I was all packed up and
prepared to bolt out of there with fussy toddler and screaming
infant, but they both went easy on me and we all left
peacefully.

Eve has also stared smiling, cooing and gooing a
lot. Sometimes she looks so focused as she “talks” and you
wonder if she’s really trying to convey something important :)
Or just thinking, “hmm… if I move my mouth like this I get an
interesting new sound… oh, look, mommy can make that sound
too.” :)
