Two months













Well its hard to believe but Little Miss Leighton is 2 months old! Part of me feels like she was just born, like all those events were just yesterday and then part of me feels like she has always been a part of our family! The boys ADORE her. Garrett always wants to touch her and hold her and constantly talks to her and tells her "I love you my baby sister". Caden is SO much help. He's favorite job is to hold her while I make dinner/lunch. He'll just sit and talk to her. Both boys are absolutely wonderful with her!

We went today for her check up. She was 11lbs 14oz up 4 lbs from her birth weight and she was 23 1/2 inches, up 3 inches from her birth. She was 93% for height, 80% for weight, and 75% for head at 15 1/2 inches. She's definitely grown. Our pediatrician, Dr. Rogers laughed that this was once the baby I brought in twice a week for weight checks as we worried so much about her slow weight gain! Those days are gone!

Leighton holds her head up really well, she smiles, and talks. She TRIES to roll over but she's not there yet. Leighton LOVES to be with people, loves her brothers, her friends, and loves to be outside. Her favorite place is on our bed looking up at the ceiling fan. I can lay her there to change her diaper and she'll just squeal and talk and smile at the fan!

Here are some pictures from the last month
