Month #2: Just Hangin' Out

November was an extra fun month for you, as your Grandma & Grandpa O were staying with Mommy & Daddy, but your Gram & Grandpa Mitchell came to visit too!  During their too-short visit, everyone cooked up a storm in the kitchen.  Grandpa M made some delicious garlic soup and french onion soup (Daddy's favourite!), and Gram barbecued up some nice steaks like only she knows how!  You loved Gram's bright coloured shirt - you couldn't stop smiling at it! 

You went for your 6 week checkup, and once again you passed with flying colours! It snowed a lot that day, but you weathered the storm like a trooper!  Daddy was busy putting the finishing touches on his game, so he was busy at work for most of the month.  But he was so excited to come home at night and see you! 

At this point, you were already sleeping through the night.  Actually, you started sleeping through the night really early.  Mommy would have to wake you up to feed you, something that she continued to do for months and months after.  You just didn't enjoy eating; you'd much rather take in the world around you!  But back to sleeping: you had your Daddy's sleep schedule. Down to bed at 2 AM, up at noon!  Even as I write this (at almost 6 months), your schedule is only a little bit better!  We have some work to do!

At the end of the month, you went for your two month shots.  The whole family got shots that day! You cried a bit, but were a tough girl about it.  We found out that you were at the 50 percentile for height, weight and head circumference.  You were thriving! 

Since you were still pretty little, you didn't do much other than eat and sleep.  You had added thumb sucking to your list of skills, and I have to say you were pretty darn cute!  No pacifier for you - your thumb was all you needed!
November came and went in a blur...December was a much more exciting month.
