Two Months Old!

In Rory's second month she was still sleeping about three hours at a a time at night and eats every three hours...occasionally a four hour stretch in there. She makes a few little grunts here and there, but not too many sounds yet.  Still not a fan of tummy time.  She was just as busy this month- Rory went to family night for Faith Formation.  She went on her first trip to La Crosse and met Auntie Elaine- her Godmother!

She also visited mommy's office, went to her first Mass, watched Rylie's final pom performance for the Fall.  She visited her first restaurant- Zaffiro's for lunch with Pattie and Laura from UH.  She was Baptized this month as well.  She also had her First Thanksgiving and made her debut on WKTY!

We also had some extended family who we don't see very often come and visit the day after Thanksgiving.  Rory met her great Uncle Pat and Aunt Margaret.  And also met some of mommy's cousins and their kids- Ian, Meghan, Josh, Ashley, Jaxon, Austin, and Julia.

At her two month Dr. appointment she weighed 10lbs 13oz. and is 23 inches long.  She started sleeping through the night at the end of this month and goes about every 3 hours between feedings.  She is very lazy and dislikes tummy time.  We are starting to see more smiles and faces. 






When your camera focuses on the blanket on the arm of the chair instead of the baby,
you only get three usable pictures for this monthly photo shoot.  Ugh. 


November Pictures and Rory's First Thanksgiving

 The month of November in pictures!  Some visitors, some renovations, some more firsts for Rory, along with lots of activities and time spent together!  Maternity leave gives me a taste of what it would be like to be at home with my littles and it would be SO nice.  I really like my job and coworkers, but things sure run a lot smoother at home when I'm not working. So when I head back to work after the first of the year, we'll have a whole new routine to adjust to.  In the mean time, I'm going to soak up as much time as possible with these little ladies.
