That is how old Kylie is as of today. I meant to write this up 11 days ago, but I have just been too busy and too tired when I had the time to do it. Plus 11 days ago we were in Philly for a wedding and I did not have access. So let’s see if I can do a little recap here.
For starters she is doing very well. Like I said, on the day Kylie turned 2 months old we were in Philly for a friends wedding. Earlier that day we visited Benjamin Franklin’s house (or at least where his house was), the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, and the outside of Independence Hall. Should I ever get around to scanning those pictures, I will post them in the gallery. (NOTE: even though some of the pictures contain Kylie, i.e. her in front of the Liberty Bell, these pictures will most likely be posted under trips.) She was very good in the car for what turned out to be a 9 hour trip each way, only fussing when she started to get hungry.
Last week she had her 2 month check up, and at that time received 5 vaccines in 4 shots. I must say that she took the shots very well, which is good seeing as she goes back in October for 4 more. At the time of her doctors’ visit she weighed 14 pounds and 1 ounce, but I am convinced that she actually weighs more than that now. She has already gotten too big for her bassinet (it says that a baby should only be in it up to 15 pounds) and has moved into her crib.
The cat seems to be more and more accepting of Kylie, as the other day I helped her pet the cat and she did not run away when Kylie touched her. This made me happy because Princess has been slow in adjusting to the presence of Kylie. Recently however, she has gotten better at not always running away when Kylie is around and has even been seen nuzzling Kylie’s feet.
Lately she seems to be showing signs of teething; mainly she will become fussy and start to cry for seemingly no reason. Sometimes letting her suck on a chilled teething ring seems to clam her down, but yesterday even that didn’t work, however placing a very small amount of Baby Orajel on her gums did. She has also become very good at keeping me up in the morning when I get off of work and am in charge of watching her. As such I have not been getting much sleep lately, but that’s ok I will adjust.
Yesterday we finally got around to taking her to have professional pictures taken as well. From we saw of the digital proofs they look to be very good. They will come in sometime around the 21st of September, once they do I am sure I will scan them and place them in the gallery as well.
