Week 10

Sorry for the delay in getting week ten posted - back to work for Amanda this week... Everything went well - Papa Craig and Gma Peg survived their first full days with Samara and so did our sitter for Wednesdays. She was a good baby and enjoyed her time with her grandparents - it will just take some getting used to each other, it's been a while since they had a little baby around!
Sunday 9/11 was our "reunion" from our Bradley Method natural childbirth class. It was fun to see all the babies together and hear everyone's stories. Samara was the youngest and littlest one there and she, by far, had them all beat in the hair dept! Jeff says she had more than the other 5 babies combined-but could just be a proud papa talking. :)
Friday 9/17 was her 2 month check-up at the doctor. She weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz and 22 inches long. At two months she is basically the size that Jeff was when he was born. So, she is catching up quick as when she was last there for her 2 week visit she was only in the 7th percentile for weight, now moved to the 17th (hence the chubby cheeks and legs she is developing)! She is also very smiley and happy. Lots of cooing sounds, new expressions and wanting to be held up so she can stand and we are enjoying it all!
