Check-up

Since Kate will start at daycare next week, we moved up her two-month check-up time to when she was only six weeks.  She was able to then receive her first round of vaccinations before going to daycare.  The check-up went well!  Kate now weighs 10 lbs., 7 oz. and is 23 inches long.  That means she has gained over 2 lbs since leaving the hospital and has grown 2 inches!  All other aspects of Kate's development are right on track.  We are seeing her beautiful smiles daily now and are enjoying sleeping longer at night.  For the past week, she has done a 7-8 hour stretch for us.  We are hoping this is becoming a routine for her because we are easily getting used to it.  We started her on a medicine for acid reflux this week to see if that is what is causing her to cough while drinking a bottle.  Other than coughing, she is a great eater and is slowly increasing the amount she drinks and time between feedings.  We love our beautiful Baby Kate and are glad to have this first round of shots behind us!

Kate's been napping in her crib to get used to sleeping in there!  We think we'll move her soon to sleeping there at night.
