Natalie had her 2 months check-up yesterday. She will be officially 2 months on Sunday. She got lots of shots and wasn’t a happy girl the rest of the day.
Here are her stats:
Weight: 11 lbs 8 oz. (87%)
Height: 21 1/2 inches (39%)
2 months have flown by quickly. It has been a lot of work with 3 kids. The nice part is Natalie is sleeping well at night. If I didn’t have that sleep I am not quite sure I could handle it all.
At 2 months, Natalie can hold her head up really well. She is probably my strongest baby. She is starting to smile more and make lots of cute baby sounds. She is very alert and loves to watch everything around her. I have started getting more toys out for her to see and play with.
Next week our speech therapist will come out and meet us. We will have weekly 1 hour appointments after that for the auditory-verbal communication. It is mostly to teach us how to talk to her, etc. It will get a lot more intense after she gets the cochlear implants because at that point, she will have been behind a whole year of hearing and learning language. We definitely have a long road ahead but we love the way Natalie fits into our family so well.

I love her blue eyes! Cute bow. Did you find out if she has the nerve for the implants? Does the therapist work with you on learning sign language or do you have to learn that on your own?
Natalie looks so smart and alert for two months. I can't believe how time flies by.

What a cutie - I could tell she was smart and strong when I was out there - and it is not JUST because I am her grandma!

She is so cute! Big eyes and lots of hair. Sorry to hear about her hearing issues. We will keep her and your family in our prayers.
