Happy 2 months, Miller!

Miller wearing one of her mamma's baby dresses- one the few we've been able to share since I was a summer baby. Thankfully it was in the 70's one day last week so we played dress up while we could!
This was taken yesterday afternoon after having her 2 month check up. She had to have her shots and was very pitiful that afternoon. I was an awful mamma and forgot to have infant Tylenol on hand. Thankfully Big Daddy came to rescue and went and got us some (I am currently unable to take both children anywhere easily due to the temporary loss of my right hand in a cooking accident- more on that in another post!) She was just laying there kind of whimpering, but as soon as you'd talk to her or smile at her, she'd smile right back. She is really a different baby these days- much, much more content. There are actually times that Phil or I have had her with us and forgotten. We'll remember she's around and assume she's gone to sleep because she's so quiet, but then you'll look over and she's just happily laying or sitting and entertaining herself with her hands or other deep thoughts. She desperately wants to suck her thumb, but most attempts at getting the fingers in the mouth wind up with fingers in the eye. She is absolutely in love with the bugs in her play place and appears to be reaching out to them and playing with them when she gets her hands on them- too much fun! So, she came in yesterday at almost 12 pounds and a little over 23 inches long- 75% all around. The doctor gave her "a 100, A+ all the way around" and "no need to go see the GI specialist anymore"- which reminds me, I need to cancel that appointment. Yea, Baby Miller! (She is also beginning to show a preference for "Millie"- she smiles real big when you say that instead of Miller.) Oh, and her hair is turning very red- very similar to the color of Wilson's when he was born.
