2 months

Sienna just had her 2 month doctor appointment this week and she weighed 10 lbs, 14 oz! She was 22 1/2 inches long, coming in at exactly an average height and weight for babies this age. She's in the 50th percentile! At this appointment, she also had to get her two month immunizations. While we were at the appointment, she was so happy and content. Daddy was holding her and she was just smiling and talking to him, since she hadn't seen him much that day. Then came the time for shots. She instantly turned into the saddest, unhappy baby. It broke my heart. She did NOT like the shots and she actually bled a lot from one of them :(. But right after the shots, I nursed her and she quickly calmed down and fell asleep--for a long time! She was a little fussy in the evening, but after some pain medicine, she was much better.

2 months old!

Never Grow Up

I recently heard this new Taylor Swift song called "Never Grow Up". After my last post "Can we please make time slow down?," this definitely reminded me of how quickly time flies by. Garth and I are trying to cherish every moment with Sienna, not only the milestones, like smiling, finding her hands, and sleeping through the night (yes she's done that 4 nights in a row now..but who's counting?!?!), but also the simple things like watching her sleep, listening to her endless noises, and even changing her diapers! If you haven't heard this song, go to youtube and listen to it. It's very sweet and makes me think and dream about Sienna's future as she grows up...even though I want her to stay this little!

NEVER GROW UP-Taylor Swift

Your little hand's wrapped around my finger

And it's so quiet in the world tonight

Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming

So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light

To you everything's funny, you got nothing to regret

I'd give all I have, honey

If you could stay like that

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple

I won't let nobody hurt you, won't let no one break your heart

And no one will desert you

Just try to never grow up, never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies

And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off

At 14 there's just so much you can't do

And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots

But don't make her drop you off around the block

Remember that she's getting older too

And don't lose the way that you dance around in your pj's getting ready for school

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple

No one's ever burned you, nothing's ever left you scarred

And even though you want to, just try to never grow up

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room

Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home

Remember the footsteps, remember the words said

And all your little brother's favorite songs

I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone

So here I am in my new apartment

In a big city, they just dropped me off

It's so much colder that I thought it would be

So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on

Wish I'd never grown up

I wish I'd never grown up

Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up

I could still be little

Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up

It could still be simple

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple

Won't let nobody hurt you

Won't let no one break your heart

And even though you want to, please try to never grow up

Oh, don't you ever grow up

Oh, never grow up, just never grow up
