Esther is 2 months!

Hard to believe Esther is 2 months old already. At her doctor's appointment, she was 12 lbs 2 oz and 23.5 inches. That puts her still around the 80th-90th percentile for both, and her head size is still growing at the same rate it was... right around the 10th percentile. So she's still perfect, but we already knew that.

I forgot to mention that she started sleeping all the way through the night when we were at Eric and Jennifer's house the weekend of Jan 10th. When we got back home, she had a few nights of waking up again, but now she's back to sleeping through. She goes to bed around 10:30 and gets up around 7:00. Hopefully she'll keep it up!





Caleb got bed rails for the twin bed for Christmas, and we have him all pumped up that for his birthday he gets to move to the new bed in the other room. So now his favorite thing to do is go climb up on the bed and say "My bed!" We have to remind him that he still has to wait for his birthday.

Caleb also has really gotten interested in the Wii. He loves boxing. He'll come up to us and say "wii-mote, nunchuck, boxing" and when we let him play, he actually wins!

Christmas and New Year's

Over the holidays we traveled to the Midwest to see my grandparents and then because of bad weather and full flights, we ended up being routed through Atlanta on the way home instead of Cincinnati. Flights were rough from there too, so Jonathan ended up going home and I stayed with the kids in Atlanta then we met up again a week later at Eric and Jennifer's house in North Carolina. Then we all drove home together. Poor Caleb got sick on the trip and we had to get him some antibiotics, and he still isn't quite himself but we're trying to get him back to a normal routine and hopefully that will work wonders for him. He's a trooper though. So is Esther...she did very well with all the travel. Here are some pictures from our trip.

Caleb is attempting to play with his cousin Kathryn... looks like she doesn't want his company too badly

On the other hand, Kathryn really seems to like Esther... they're already plotting how to make Caleb take the blame for everything

Here's Grandma Waugh with the girls

Cousins!
