My Dear Charlotte Faye,
You are TWO MONTHS OLD!
We have had a very busy month! You went to a birthday party. You met your friend, Emmi. You and your cousin Keegan were dedicated. You moved up a size on your bottles, your diapers, and your carseat straps. It has been lots of fun!
What are your stats and what does the doctor say?
We haven't been to see Dr. Chris for your two month check up. It is scheduled for the end of the month. You did go see him last week for your first sick visit. At that appointment, you weighed 10 lbs 3 oz. So, I am guessing you weigh 10.5 lbs and you are 23 inches long. You are a growing girl!
What are you eating?
Enfamil ProSoBee was the winner in the formula race. You are tolerating it very well. You are eating 4-5 oz bottles every four(ish) hours.

When do you sleep and eat?
You are a very good sleeper! You get a bath and your bedtime bottle between 9:30 and 10:00pm. You have been sleeping until about 4:00am. Sometimes, you even sleep longer! After that 4:00am bottle, you are ready to eat every four hours. Some days, you are a very good eater. Other days, not so much. You were spitting up (and by "spitting up", I mean projectile-both-of-us-have-to-change-clothes spitting up), so we went to see Dr. Chris. He said you have reflux and now you take baby Zantac. You take you medicine like a big girl and it seems to be helping.
What do your routines look like?
Your routines are still based on eating and sleeping. During the day, you like to take a nap in your swing. In the evenings, you get a little colicky. This is getting better every day, though. You get a bath every night and you love it. Nothing like a little spa time to relax!
What size clothes and diapers are you wearing?
You are wearing 0-3 months clothes. You can still wear a couple of your newborn jammies. You are wearing Size 1 diapers.

What are some things you love?
You love being held upright. You love looking at your bows while on your changing pad. You love your Lovie. You love when people talk to you. You love music.
You still don't really care for a pacifier (if you take one, you only want the Avent kind). You don't like getting your clothes changed. You don't like being held like a baby.
What can you do?
You can smile. You can look at your toys hanging from your carseat or playmat. You can sit up in your Bumbo. You can ROLL OVER from your tummy to your back.
You met your BFF, Emmi this month. You two are going to be great friends (your moms are going to make sure of it!). Aunt Whitney watched you while Momma went to the eye doctor. That was the first time I left you with someone besides Daddy. Aunt Magan and Uncle Adam watched you while Momma and Daddy ran some errands after L's birthday party.
What are some of your nicknames?
Daddy and I call you Sis, Sister, Little Miss, Miss Priss, Sweet Girl and C.
Your cousin L calls you Baby Charlotte.
Your cousin D calls you Char-Char.
Mimi calls you Princess.
What are we looking forward to in the next month?
Before you turn three months:
* We are going to have another play date with Emmi.
* You will meet Miss Molly.
* You will carve pumpkins at Aunt Whitney and Uncle Danny's.
* You will dress up for the church Halloween Trunk or Treat.
She is getting so big and I really miss being close. Hopefully you all can come visit so I can see her as I don't think we are going to be coming home for Christmas this year. Give her a big hug and kiss from us. Love and Miss you all. Guess who.
ReplyDeleteWe love us some Charlotte!!! Emmi is excited that she made the blog! :-)

That Halloween bow---so funny! It's bigger than her head! Or at least it looks bigger than her head in the picture. So fun!
