Two Months Update

I don't know what happened but I guess I published the pics and the blog part was erased. Well, I forgot to update Harlowe's two months doctor's visit. Harlowe got her first set of shots and she was such a trooper. In the ER there are a lot of first time parents that just bust out in tears when their child has to get an injection or IV, so I knew I had to hold it together. I didn't know how I would feel but I held it together for Harlowe's sake, ha. I did pretty good, I held her little hands out of the way and just talked to her, but she wasn't having it. She did well with the first injection but the second one was like bloody murder. My poor baby, but she was consolable afterwards so that was good. Poor Dustin wasn't having anything to do with holding her down but we all got through it. I just can't imagine when she is older and understands the word shot, holy moly we are in trouble.

She did great though and we were prepared because we gave her some Tylenol right before we left for the doctor's office, and we gave Tylenol throughout the day which I think really helped her. Because the next day she was good as new and back to her cheery self. She did sleep a lot that day so we were off to good old Costco, which we love.

Dustin and I can spend hours there just browsing through all the goodies. I know I am behind on blogging but recently we bought a blender from Costco, which we love. I really wanted a good blender so I can make Harlowe fresh, organic baby food. I am on the organic kick because we watched this documentary where the cows and chickens were given a lot of antibiotics to make them bigger, faster. Dustin was even disgusted and he wanted to jump on the organic ban wagon because he loves the moo, moo. Me not so much but if I do get a craving, I will feel a little better about eating it. Anyway, Dustin had to talk me into getting the blender because that sucker was expensive. He of course used Harlowe as a bargaining chip because he really wanted the blender to make his famous margaritas, ha. Needless to say we bought it and are getting great use out of it, because Dustin makes fruit smoothies almost everyday and they are sooo delicious.

Okay back to Harlowe: she was 22 inches long, which was the 25th percentile, she weighed 11 pounds 6 ounces which was the 50th-75th percentile and her head circumference was 37.5 cm which was the 25th percentile. She is growing and changing so fast, we are trying to enjoy every minute with her. She is our precious little angel. We love you so much, you are our blessing!
