2 Month Check-up

As promised here are the girls stats from their 2 month check-up!

Hannah
9lbs 12 oz and 21.5 approx, she was not happy. Dr. Said she is in the 10 percentile, but no worries as she is obviously growing!

Sophia
10lbs 6.5 oz and again 21.5 inches long.

They are both healthy and doing great. They had 3 shots each and Sophia had a little leg reaction that night,but was fine once some Tylenol kicked in. Poor thing! I realized how good my babies are that night because I had never heard Sophia cry like that. People say you get to know their cry language and it is so true. This was clearly her I am in pain cry. I felt so sad for her, but once she got it out of her system she slept all night!

Speaking of sleep, we really need to start putting these girls in their cribs. At three months they start becoming so much more aware and I want them to be good sleepers like Olivia. Plus I think I am ready to have them out of our room so I can sleep a little better. I still plan on swaddling them and putting them together in one crib for now as they seem to like it. If any of you mom's have tips on transitioning them to their cribs and also what baby monitors you like let me know. We need a new one and I am thinking of a video monitor?

2 Months

The last two months have been a blur, hence there has been no post since they were born and that post came a month late ha!

Are we in a routine yet? Um no, but we have some good days and I really can't complain because the girls are really good babies. We have had a few good nights of sleep and if they do wake up it is only once.  We still swaddle them and they sleep together with a sleep sheep. I really wish I would have known about the sheep with Olivia wow! They are starting to really like their baths and seem to notice more things above them and around them. We are also starting to get several smiles, which is the best feeling!

We go to the Dr. next week for their 2 month check so I am not sure of their weights or length at this time. At two weeks Hannah was 6lbs 3oz and Sophia 6lbs 9oz. They are still in newborn clothes, but we are getting close to growing out of them and in size one diapers.

 Olivia is doing really well and loves her sisters.  She loves to help change their diapers, get them their pacifiers and blankets and she even shares her toys, so cute.

Our lives are very chaotic and I hope we can learn to handle it all and I can grasp being a stay at home mom of three....yikes! This is hands down the hardest thing we have ever done and I will not lie, I have days when I ask the man above why he thought I could handle this. But then we remind ourselves that we have three, healthy beautiful children and nothing else matters!

That's all I can remember and have time for now. Babies are hungry...imagine that!

Olivia wanted to show us her backside too ha!


2 months! Sophia on the right looks like a chunk!

Omg...I think this is Hannah

And...I think this is Sophia ha!
