2-1/2 Months

Where does the time go? I feel like I just brought our newest addition home yesterday and now I have already been back to work for a week and a half.  Audrey is settling into daycare just fine with her big sister, although I still feel like it is so soon to have her away from me for 9 hours a day. Madie is such a wonderful, loving big sister. Sometimes too loving, but I will take it over jealousy which we really haven't had any of. 

Audrey had her "2 month" check up today, a little overdue. She was 12lbs 10oz and 22-1/2".  She is such a little drama queen though, smiling at the doctor when he began his exam and seconds later crying which she did up until after the last shot was given. Madie never cried at the doctor when she was a baby, and only as a yelp of protest during shots.  Shots are so sad, and Audrey gripped my hand so hard with her tiny fingers and screamed like there was no tomorrow and of course that brought me to tears as well. But as soon as I picked her up when it was all done, she curled into me and stopped crying. Never made another peep, even when I put her into the car seat and then all the way back to daycare. She gave Mads a big smile as Madie checked out her dual band aid legs. 

Audrey has been sleeping through the night like a champ for the last 2 weeks or so. She goes down around 8pm and sleeps until around 4am when she wakes up for a bottle. Then back down until around 6:30am. Sometimes she even skips the 4am feeding! I thought we lucked out with Mads being such a good sleeper and that we wouldn't get that lucky twice.  But here we are and I am soooo happy about it!
