Two Month Stats

Ah... finally a moment to get an update out! It has been chaos in our house for the past week. Not so much the going to daycare/back to work thing, just that in combination of other events.

Anyways, where to start? Lilly started daycare, which was tough for me, but needed. The kids greet her at the door everyday, so she can't be too bad to be around :) She is adjusting and comes home tired. That being said, she has only been getting up once per night when we put her down between 9 and 10. Bonnie (daycare lady) said that she was better by the end of the week... she was becoming a Mommy's girl and seemed to only not cry when I was in sight. Plus all the noise and people have to be exhausting for her.

Work is work. Jereme is training in Minneapolis for the month and I've been thrown right back into things. I've already got two trips booked! Yikes! Strangely enough getting us out the door in the morning hasn't been too much of an issue. We're all up much, much early than we used to be, but it's ok. I am making due with less sleep :) And... I got my first spit up on work clothes yesterday. Now I know what everyone is talking about! Lilly just started this spit up thing in the last week, so I hadn't had to deal with it too much.

Lillian had her two month appointment yesterday. She is still a peanut, weighing in at a whopping 9 lbs, 1 oz, which is the 9th percentile. She is 22.5 inches long (54th percentile). They gave her three shots, which were the WORST thing to ever happen to her. Her poor little eyes just looked at me with complete dispair. I've never heard her cry louder. By the time we got home, she was asleep. She was still a little drowsy this morning from them.

Easter was jam packed as usual. Grandma Sandie made Lillian some special bonnets. Lillian isn't quite sure what they are all about just yet, but I know she will love them this summer. I think they are cute :)

Off to more of our busy life!

Smiles and the Real World


Finally, we are getting some smiles from our little girl! I've yet to manage to capture one on our regular camera, which explains the crappy image... my cell phone doesn't take great pics. None-the-less it was too cute not to post.


Lillian is starting to get on a better schedule. She only wakes up twice a night now, verses the four times we were getting up. Perfect timing for the two of us to go back to work. Work, ugh. This is going to be rough, but good. We're both ready. Back to the real world for us!


I had my six week appointment (which was actually a seven week) and all is well. Doc says I am back to normal or as normal as I can be. I've lost almost all of the weight and am ready to hit the gym in full force. I've actually been going for a few weeks already, but I have been taking it pretty easy. Now I am ready to start running again, weather cooperating. Hopefully Lilly will like walk/runs because I hope to take her on quite a few!


The next few weeks are gonna be nuts. New job, new office (for me), bowling league, Twins games and more visitors! Be sure to tune in for the next episode of our crazy life!
