2 Months

Mackenzie turned 2 months old on December 23. She had her 2 month check-up on the 22nd.

Her stats are as follows:

11 lbs 4.5 oz

22.5 inches long

15 inch head circumference

I tried looking up the percentiles, but I kept getting differing amounts. I think she is somewhere in the 50-75th percetile for weight and height, with her a head a little under 50%. She is our little chunk! (Just like her brother was!)

She had to get 3 shots. Which she absolutely hated! This girl has got a set of lungs on her and she let the entire office hear them! But, she was screaming even before she got the shots. She didn't even like the doctor listening to her heart or looking at her eyes and ears!

She is starting to smile a lot more and it is the cutest smile ever! When she is getting her diaper changed, she loves to look at the stickers on the wall next to the changing table and she'll just smile! Also, when I am nursing her in her room, she'll look up at the hair bows a friend made for her and smile! And just today, when I was getting her out of bed, she gave me the biggest smile! I love this girl!

CHRISTMAS EVE

"Who Needs Santa When I Have Grandma?"

Here is Mackenzie opening her first ever present. She was super excited, can't ya tell?!

Devin got a tractor, a farm, and a Toy Story desk chair.

Mackenzie got a cute pink hippo, a glow worm, and pink BYU apparel.

I got some raspberry sticks and scrapbooking supplies, among other things.

Morian got 3 games of Dominion. One is the original and 2 are expansions.

Church

So, Mackenzie had her first trip to church on December 5. She and I only made it to Sacrament Meeting and she spent the entire time in her car seat asleep. But we went! And even though I figured she'd sleep right through church, I had to dress her up cute!

The dress is actually a shirt (but it totally fits her right now as a dress) and the tights and shoes were too big, but she looked absolutely adorable!

We made it to all of church the next week and she wore the same outfit again. (I wanted to try on a different dress, but it's hard to get everyone ready for 9 AM church, so I went with what I knew fit her!) She slept through Priesthood and Sunday School (Morian took her while I went to Primary) and then was awake during most of Sacrament Meeting. I had to take her out to feed and change her and we were gone like half the meeting, but I was still able to hear the talks in the Mother's Room.
