So she had her 2 month doctor's appointment about a week ago. The nurse said how much Kate looks like her daddy. :) It's always fun to hear that! Anyway, she weighed in at 8 lb. 2 oz. and was just over 21" long. Isn't that crazy? She's 2 months old and still smaller than a lot of newborns. The doctor said that if she had been delivered on her due date, she'd only be in about the 3rd percentile for height and weight. But, since she was almost a month early, he said she's in about the 50th percentile for a one-month-old. She's doing well! The cool part is that she behaves like a two-month-old in that she smiles, maintains eye contact, and knows who her mom & dad are. ;)
The sad part of the visit was that she had to have 5 shots in her thighs...I couldn't watch! William held her while the nurse did her work...Kate screamed and cried, and I have to admit that I cried a little bit too! It's so sad that they don't know what's going on. But she recovered quickly and hopefully won't remember how bad it was when it comes time for her 4 month shots. :)

She is beautiful! Shots are so hard, especially for mom!
That's wonderful that's she's growing so well! She's such a beauty!! That's a dress too!
Shots are hard - it's difficult to see them so sad. Much better than the alternative, though!
