2 months old!

Baby K was 2 months old on Friday, June 6th. Today was her Dr's appt and I'm pleased to say that she is "growing like a weed" - to quote the Dr. At her 2 week check-up she was not up to her birth weight yet because of some problems nursing that I have blogged about already. Today I finally had confirmation that she is definitely nursing & growing well now. She weighed in at 10 lbs 15 oz and measured 23 inches long. Her weight & head circumference are at about 50% for her age and her height is at 75%!

Baby K has had some pretty bad baby acne for the last couple of weeks, but I think it is finally going away. This weekend it was pretty bad for the wedding and the skin was very rough to the touch. Today it is almost smooth once again. The doctor said that Baby K has a small hernia under her belly button but in most cases it will clear up by itself without the need for surgery.

It's fun watching Baby K start to interact with us and she is finally sleeping a little better during the day. I have actually been able to go to a few stores without having to leave quickly to feed her in the car in the parking lot.
