E is Two Months Old

Okay, so Emery is over two months old now, but I'm just now getting to posting about it on the blog. Things have been more than crazy lately. We are now settled (sort of) in our new house and are really enjoying it (more on the new house to come) and I'm finally starting to recover from having mastitis. I was sick. Really sick. Fever, chills and body aches. It was awful. Thank goodness my in-laws were here to care for my children because I certainly couldn't.

Okay, now on to Miss Emery. She went for her two-month check up this week and we received a good report! She weighed in at 11 lbs. 11 oz. and measured 23 inches long. Doc says that she is perfectly proportioned. She also got all of her shots and it was just as awful as I remembered, but we survived.

She's been smiling a lot these days and she loves to lay in her crib and smile at the animals on her mobile. She's still got her wild wild crazy hair, but the new hair that is growing in is blond, so she may be a blondie like her big bro. She still sleeps in the Nap Nanny in our room at night. I can't figure out how to get her to sleep in her crib. This was not a problem with Case. Any tips out there?? She also refuses to drink from a bottle which is going to be problematic when I go back to work in a few weeks. Again, any tips?? This wasn't a problem for Case either. They say no two babies are alike and that has certainly proven true with our two!! E sure is high maintenance, but we just love her to pieces!!
