10 weeks

We had our 2 month well baby appointment this week.

Stats:
Height - 23.5 inches (80th percentile)
Weight - 12.12 pounds (95th percentile)
Head - 50th percentile

An interesting comparison for me... stats from her sister:
Height - 22.5 inches (40th percentile)
Weight - 12.7 pounds (75th percentile)
Head - 40th percentile

Natalie doesn't feel so 'itty bitty' anymore. She has outgrown her 0-3 and 3 month clothing and is into her 3-6 and 6 month clothing. Breast milk apparently does a baby good.

I have been trying to capture a smile on camera for a couple of days. Tonight I was able to get one with Daddy's help. LOVE it.

Daddy has nicknamed Natalie 'itty bitty'. Kendal has started calling her that as well. So, I think that is her new nickname. :)

Halloween

I didn't get many pictures of our Trick or Treat gang. But, here you can see the gaggle of kids gathered at one of our neighbors doors. We had 7 children under the age of 4 including our infant. It truly is a great neighborhood that we live in.

Time really flies when you have 2 children. I get it why people say 2 is a lot more than 'double' the work. It is wonderful and chaotic. But, I am enjoying every day and sleepless night.

Yesterday, I was doing the typical diaper change and asked big sis to put a hand on lil sis so I could grab a diaper. Daddy was on hand to keep an eye on both of them. While I was gone, Daddy yelled for me to come quick.

It was a camera opportunity missed. Big sis had a hand on lil sis and then lil sis put a hand on big sis and smiled. I think it melted Daddy's heart. :) We love our lil girls.
