Alyssa is 2 months today! She got her pictures taken today, however, they will not be available for pick up until January 29. I thought I would be able to leave with them. I am so excited about them.
Alyssa was not very happy for the pictures. She calmed down at the very end when the photographer said he was done with that disk. I asked if he could quicky take a few more, but he couldn't... that's what you get for a free sitting fee!
Anyway, I'll post the pictures when I get them. Funny thing is that the best pictures were candid shots where I am trying to calm her down.

2 Month Appointment
Today was Alyssa's 2 month appt though she'll be 2 months tomorrow. It was a great appt until the end. She was very good for the nurses and the doctor...
She measured at 9 lbs 9 oz and 22 inches with her head at 38 1/4 cm. She is in the 25% group for weight and length, and 50% for her head, but those numbers are inline with how she measured at birth... we thought her head was getting so big from us always telling her how pretty she is!!
She got some baby Tylenol for the first time, cherry, in anticipation for the 4 shots she was to receive.
At the end, two nurses come in, they give her the medicine in her mouth first, which she spit part out. Then, they each grabbed a leg and injected two shots each. Alyssa did NOT like that! Her face was the darkest red-purple I have ever seen on her before. But, after 10 seconds, she took a breath, calmed down, and fell asleep almost immediately. I think the Tylenol made her drowsey, so I'm so glad I gave it to her.
She gets her pictures tomorrow!!

Alyssa Sleeping Through the Night
WOW! I thought Saturday night was a fluke when I woke up at 6am and Alyssa had slept for 8 1/2 hours. Then, I woke up this morning at 6am and Alyssa had slept for 9 hours!! Yes, she went to bed at 9pm, and woke up at 6am!!
This is AWESOME!!
Previously, she had several days of 5 and 6 hours, and even a couple of 7 hour nights, but nothing consistant. Hopefully, 2 nights in a row can show her a pattern, and then we'll be well on our way to sleeping for 10-12 hours.
She's getting her 2 month shots tomorrow morning and her 2 month professional pictures on Wednesday. She has a very busy week!

Alyssa is 6 Weeks Old
Here is a picture of Alyssa and Mommy from January 5, 2008. The rest are from when she turned 6 weeks old on December 28, 2007
She wasn't supposed to have my thumb in her mouth, but she wasn't cooperating... however, the picture turned out so very very cute!
