Two Months Old!

Our Kate Monster suddenly became a 2 month old this past Sunday. She is 23 inches long (75th percentile) and 11.5 pounds (60th percentile.) She was 8 pounds, 13 ounces and 21 1/4 inches long one month ago.

Unfortunately, she also has a cold. I was surprised to learn that infants typically suffer from 6-10 upper respiratory infections per year--more in day care settings. At least she is building up her immune system early!

She also endured her first major round of vaccinations well. We held her hands, she screamed briefly, and then C distracted her with her bottle. Perhaps my telling her that it would only hurt for a few seconds proved ineffective.
