Tired Girl

Diana loves her daddy and loves to fall asleep on his chest. I am quite jealous.

Diana 2 Month Checkup

Diana had her two month checkup today and weighs 9 lbs 9 oz and is 21 inches long. She is staying on her 10% curve (non adjusted). The doctor was very happy with her weight gain, since I started nursing her exclusively now. Diana had to get two shots today. Good thing big brother was there to prepare her by giving her shots with his doctor kit. Of course she screamed and she was a lot fussier today because of them. The ultrasound results of her hip came back and everything checked out. Thank goodness, one less thing to worry about. We have her appointment on Thursday for her feet, which are still an issue. We should start seeing her smiling and cooing, she is a little behind on this but the doctor said it is normal for preemies. I also asked the doctor about acid reflux, as Diana has been spitting up more and screaming after some feeding. The doctor said all babies have some form of acid reflux, just depends on how severe. She won't treat it until it is bad (i.e., screaming after every feeding, not eating, spitting up more than Diana is, etc). Hopefully it doesn't get worse and she just out grows it.

Snake Tongue

Well Jonathan put in a much better night than I expected. He slept with Brad and I and whimpered a couple times during the night but slept the whole night. I took him to the dentist today and they said it is one of the worst injuries they have seen, but they have seen worse. The dentist told Jonathan that he made his tongue look like a snake. Which is true, unfortunately. His teeth went right through his tongue and he can now separate the end of it. He basically has a Y in his tongue. His teeth are all jacked up as well and 4 or 5 of them are loose. The good news is that the xrays show that the permanent teeth should be ok. The dentist wants to wait a week to see how everything heals. We may need to put Jonathan under to put stitches in his tongue and/or pull some teeth. I can barely look in his mouth without getting squirmish. I feel so bad for the little guy but he really is tough and handling it quiet well. Now to try and find "calm" activities for a very active little 3 year old boy.

Diana is 2 Months

Diana is two months old already!!! Seriously, where does the time go? She is growing and getting so big, which we are happy about, but at the same time, I want her to stay little forever! I am not sure if I put this on the blog last month or not but someone gave me the idea to take pictures every month with an object to show how much she is getting and then compare them all at the 1 year birthday. So here Diana is with the bear I made her.

Jonathan's Big Owie

Well not how I had planned on ending our fun weekend. Jonathan bit threw his tongue and knocked his teeth back tonight. I was finishing dinner while Brad and Jonathan were dancing to calm Diana down. Jonathan did a spin and lost his balance and ran into one of our bar stools face first. Needless to say there was LOTS of blood and tears. Of course our dentist is on vacation and it is a Sunday night. We couldn't get the bleeding to stop so we headed for Children's but once we got there and saw the wait and all the hacking kids, luckily the bleeding stopped and we headed home. Plan to see the dentist tomorrow.

Saturday Fun

If Daddy makes 25 phone calls every day at work, then we get to go out to breakfast as a family on Saturdays. IHOP is Jonathan's favorite place to go. This Saturday we even went to a park afterwards to play and then sat and looked out over the river and city. What a fun Saturday! Keep making your phone calls Daddy!

Wild Man

Jonathan was quiet entertaining tonight after dinner. He was tackling his drum case and being all wild and crazy. He was so wound up that he was hot and had to take his shirt off. Then he decided to put on his racoon hat. These pictures were too funny not to post. Can you see his farmer's tan too?
