2 month battle wounds

Today my little peanut had her 2 month doctors visit. It was a very eventful morning, where I actually had to wake her up to dress her and get her to the appointment on time. (8:30am appointments worked well prior to having a baby...now I think I'll go with the afternoon options!) So here we sit 5 shots, 1 oral medicine, a dose of Tylenol and a bug bite later. She cried, but not as bad as I expected and I managed to keep myself together for the most part.

Last night she actually slept for 5 hours! I was just reading in one of my many books that babies her age actually can sleep up to 7 hours at night. She is normally a 3-4 hour girl at night and really only does one 3-4 stretch. For example, she will sleep from 8p to 10p and then wake up to eat, go back down and sleep to 1a or 2a then wake up and eat, go back to sleep and then wake up around 3a or 4a and eat, then sleep again until 5a or 6a. Needless to say it is an exhausting schedule as we are usually up for 45-60min each time she wakes. So today I give thanks for Josephine throwing me a bone and giving me an extra hour or two of sleep!
