I haven't been able to write cuz my bad Mama says she has been "dog tired" when she gets home from work and then she spends her night juggling me!!!
Mommy says that while I have physically changed quite a bit not a whole lot has changed around here. I still am not fond of sleeping most of the time but in the last week I have actually slept through the night TWO times. Mommy and Daddy are praying that I am finally starting to get a routine but we will see how I feel the next couple days. I have been really cranky the last 2 days, no real reason but Daddy says that I just like to "bitch" whatever that means. Mom said the last week or so it really seems that I have figured out what a smile is for and that I am smiling even when I fuss. Mommy thinks it is funny "poop" when I have a big ol grin on my face but am screaming, Daddy however doesn't think it is so funny cuz I am almost always screaming at HIM!!! I am eating a TON lately, I am now up to 5 to 6 ounces every 3 hours or so. Daddy calls me his little piggy.... I don't think that's very nice but I will put up with it cuz I loves my Daddy.
I went and had my 2 month check up and shots... that just SUCKED. I was OK with the shot part, Mommy cried WAY more than I did cuz I am a tough little girl but my Mommy... well she's a big wuss!!! While they gave me the shots I was laying on Daddy's lap guzzling down my bottle so I barely noticed. Daddy says I am not tough I am just a piggy so food is way more important than a silly needle. My Dr said I am 100% healthy and said the fussing and farting I do is OK, she said she doesn't like to change formula unless it is really needed and she doesn't think it is. Mommy still doesn't believe that but she is going to leave things alone and listen to the Dr for now. I had been congested and had a cough for a few days before I went to the Dr and Mommy asked the Dr about it, she said I had a virus of some sort. Mommy was worried maybe I was allergic to the cats or something but the Dr said that environmental allergies start later on so it was only a minor virus. Mommy had called the after hours number a few days before we saw the Dr so she had been putting saline drops up my nose and sucking them out, I REALLY hated that and put a cool mist humidifier around me all day. Dr said that was the best thing to do. They weighed and measured me while I was there and I am 9 pounds 8 ounces and 21 inches long!!! Mommy looked at the pictures of me when I was born and can't believe how much difference a couple pounds and a couple inches make!!! After my shots I was HORRIBLE to my parents for about 4 days. My tummy hurt and I had a fever so I cried pretty much full time, I didn't want to sleep so it was a LONG 4 days. I am still a fussy pain in the butt now but I am not in pain so Mommy and I are happier.
I went with Daddy to see his neurologist today. It was a long trip for me but it seems like Daddy is getting some of the answers he needs. His Dr said she thinks he has Fibromyalgia and put him on Lyrica for a couple weeks to see if that is going to help. If that works then his regular Dr can prescribe it regularly for him. His neurologist was also concerned about his issues sleeping and is getting a sleep study authorized, she thinks that it may be sleep apnea. Mommy has thought he may have apnea for quite a while so she is happy that they are going to look into it but when she found out that a sleep study is done AT HOME all she could do was laugh... How do they plan to study his sleep when NO ONE gets much sleep with me around??? Mommy is just plain rude LOL.
Mommy is also really happy with the way Daddy is with me, she said Daddy has taken to being my Daddy like a Duckie takes to water!!! Mommy loves to watch me hang out with Dad, he makes up all kinds of silly songs and sings them to me, he holds me every chance he gets and he and I will sit and stare at each other till I fall asleep. Mommy said she loves her little family. Daddy does think that Mommy may be reacting to the stress I put on her cuz she has already planned my first birthday, right down to how to make a centerpiece with a rubber duckie.... Thanks to Grandma's friend Sharon I am now the proud owner of a HUGE rubber duckie collection so it seems to have become a theme around here. Mommy is even looking into a cake decorating class cuz she wants to make a several tier cake with a 3D rubber duckie cake as the top tier!!! I can hardly wait cuz by then I should be able to have some!!! I am also concerned about Mama's sanity cuz she told me what she is dressing me up as for Halloween.... A SKUNK... Mommy said I am a little stinker so I guess it is pretty fitting.
Mommy also found the way to make me LIKE bath time, Mommy and I take a bath together. Once I learned how to kick my legs, wiggle my WHOLE body and realized that I liked the warm water and wanted to put my face in it Mommy started having a really hard time keeping my face out of the water, not dropping me AND getting me clean so she just gave up and climbed in the tub with me. Mama said I am slippery when wet and she wasn't gonna risk something bad happening to me. Now that Mommy is there with me and I can be in more water I LOVE bath time BUT I still scream and fuss I just wait till Mommy makes me get out!!! LOL guess my Mommy just can't win!!!
Speaking of bathes, Mommy says it is time for mine. Mommy said we will try to write more often but she is busting her bum at work lately so she makes no promises. Nighty night!!!
