Charlotte 2 Months

Charlotte is now 2 months and getting into a good routine!  She is sleeping thru the night.  We give her a big bottle at 10pm, swaddle her and then she will sleep anywhere from 5:30am to 7am.  So that makes me a happy mom!  She has also started cooing more and smiling as well. 
Here are her 2 month stats:
Weight: 11lbs 13oz  ( 95%ile)
Height:  24in ( 95%ile)
Head Circumference: 41.6 cm (98%ile)

Halloween Carnival

We went with Uncle Josh and Aunt Kristin to their neighborhood Carnival and Emma decided she wanted to be Snow White for this carnival.  The girls enjoyed Trick or Treating!

Charlotte 1 Month...a little late.

Charlotte was 1 month on September 29th and I took her picture, I just forgot to post about it!  Here are her 2 week stats from the Dr, Sharp:
Weight: 8lbs 11.8 oz (50 % ile)
Height: 22in (98 % ile)
Head circumference 39cm (98 % ile)
But we went back to the doctor a few weeks later to check on her hemangioma and she was up to 11lbs! 
At 1 month, Charlotte was doing well, and waking up 1-2 times at night but would quickly go back to sleep.  I had to cut dairy out of my diet because I felt like it was upseting her stomach and they say that dairy is most likely the culprit since babies have a hard time digesting the milk protein.  So far, I think it has helped her. 

Pictures from the end of September
