2 Months old!



Hello everyone! Sorry it's been awhile since we've posted. Things have been pretty busy around here with Kilee Anne. She has had colic (officially diagnosed by Dr. ) and has had a pretty rough time with crying and gas pains. This past week has been better because we've started using something our Dr. recommended called Gripe Water. It is really helping! She's happier.
We're still involved in weekly activities together. On Wednesday mornings, we go to Mom 2 Mom at church and we just got involved in a playgroup on Thursday mornings. It's been really good for her and for me! This Sunday is Kilee Anne's first week in the church nursery. We're hoping all goes well with that.
We went to our 2 month well-baby checkup yesterday and Kilee Anne is doing so well developmentally! She weighed 10 lbs. 8.4 oz. and was 22.5 inches long which puts her exactly in the 50th percentile for growth, a good thing. She had her 2 month immunizations as well. It was so hard to hold her down and see her get those shots, but she was SO brave! I was extremely proud of her. She only cried for a minute and then just quietly rested. What a gal! We don't have to go back to the doctor until her 4 month well-baby visit, barring any illnesses.
Scott and I are doing well. Things are starting to get pretty busy at work as the camp season gets closer and closer. It's hard to believe that summer is just around the corner! I'm doing pretty well, too. I'm just ready for spring to come and brighten up these soggy, cold weather days! We'll be posting again soon -- thanks for reading!

Playing With Daddy




I got these cute shots of Kilee Anne and Scott playing on the couch. She was bright-eyed and having a good time! Still no real smiles yet. She might be reaching that milestone a little later than normal since she was a little early. We'll be waiting for it, that's for sure! It's been a fairly good week. We went to our Mom 2 Mom group again this week. It's such a blessing to get together with other women and be able to take Kilee Anne along, too. We meet at church and go through Biblical principles for becoming better wives and mothers, and then we meet in groups to talk about our kids and share our concerns. It has been so great! I've needed it.
Kilee Anne has been pretty fussy these past few days. It seems like her tummy is bothering her, but it's hard to be sure because most of the time she stops crying when we pick her up. I hope she starts to get less and less fussy. It's hard to hear her cry all the time because it makes me sad for her, but it is also frustrating. She seems to really be in a good mood when Scott comes home! He must just have that effect on us ladies! Please be praying for us as we try to navigate this tough phase. Enjoy the pictures!
