The past few days have been pretty good. Sofia has still been growing, and it's apparent by our doctor's trip y/day!
Let's start from this past Saturday-- 1/23... Happy two months old Sofia!
To celebrate we actually went to Ronald and Jacinth's wedding. We got to take a photo with the bride and groom and you were quite good. :) But Mila ended up watching you upstairs in the room. You slept most of the time, which was a difference from the week before- Paul and Diana's wedding where you cried the entire night. :) Perhaps you're getting used to Auntie Mila now... which is good since we have one more wedding next monday- Natalie and Lawrence. Anyhow, you got to see, or rather a lot of auntie and uncles got to see you! And they all say you are so cute-- which, of course you are. :) But it was a good night. You were a good good girl Sofia. I'm so proud of you.
Sunday we rested, since daddy went out late the night before (rather early morning).
Monday we went to the doctor. (1/25), actually it was auntie jen-jen's birthday too! :) But the Dr appointment was going to be interesting since it would be the "first", since we missed the 1 month shots... Grandpa Wong came with us since he knows the doctor (it's his doctor too!). Which was a good thing, so the nurses were a bit nicer to us actually. nicer than last time. anyhow, two shots- one in each thigh (enough meat there!) and you only cried for less than a minute! :) what a good tough girl you are. Mommy was so proud. Also you didn't really get a fever which is good, only slight- 100.1, but i didn't give you medicine (b/c it's that gross pink stuff, i didn't even want to open it b/c it probably is nasty). You are definitely healthy- already 14lbs and 4 oz and 24.5" tall! That means you've almost doubled your birth weight in 2 mos and grew about 5"!! Amazing... i still look at the scar from delivery and it's amazing really, how big you've gotten even from then. You will grow so much more too-- it's true "babies really don't stay little forever.". No wonder people have multiple kids! :) But the dr said mommy shouldn't feed you so much, only 6xs a day max. Just so you don't grow so much. Mommy looked in her books and apparently you're about in the 95th percentile for both weight and height... my little over achiever yes? b/c i certainly wouldn't call you fat nor do i want to put you on a diet already! (nor will I!)
But it's good to know you are healthy and strong and growing. :) good girl Sofia.
You've definitely been "coo-ing" a lot more and smiling and laughing too. It's such a joy and such a wonderful thing. I do need to give you more tummy time though... tha'ts the one thing i know i haven't been good about b/c you don't like it. but we'll have to just do it anyways so you start to learn to roll over and also crawl. Your legs are strong though, so that's good. :) though crawling before walking, of course i'm sure is necessary. I think you will talk earlier though, it's so cute to see your expressions when you talk. So animated, so curious, so loving... so happy.
it's wednesday today... a pretty sunny day but the weather has gotten colder again. We went to the office y/day and probably need to go again tmrw to pack since we're moving offices. But I hope with this new job, mommy will have more time to spend with you... and to watch you and be there as you grow and learn everyday.
i love you little sofia! (and so does daddy!)
big hugs and kisses...
love mommy & daddy
