Two months



Taylor is two months old today!!  Crazy to think she has been around that long.  We went to the doctor today and was able to get all her stats as well as two shots she really didn't like.  Today she weighed in at 9 pounds 1 ounce in the 6th percentile.  She measured 21 inches long which is the 3rd percentile.  (She managed to make it out of the 0 percentile.). She is still small, so says everyone.  I think she is the perfect size.  When she is awake, Taylor is really alert and can really hold her head up.





At the doctor's office, I had a sidekick with me, Mason.  He started to have a cold this weekend, but when I got to him this afternoon it seemed like it was gone. I had already made him an appointment with Taylor, so he went with me anyway.  I wanted to get at least a prescription to use if needed.  Mason needs to be well by next Wednesday.  He will be getting a tube put back into his left ear.  Even though he is only two, this will be the third time he has gone in for tubes.  The poor kid has been traumatized the last two times we have been to the doctor.  Today, he cried in the hall when we saw the doctor and when we weighed Taylor. Forget weighing him.  Mason just wanted to escape.  Fortunately, the nurse had a sucker for Mason.



This past weekend, Jay has really dressed up like a superhero, but has really used his imagination.  Here's a picture of our superheroes:

Happy Halloween

Halloween is over, but we all had a good time and the kids scored some candy.  Definitely not as much as we left out for the halloweeners, but enough to satisfy their taste buds for a while.

This year, Mason fit in his same costume as a dragon, but filled it out better.


Jay was a Ninja Turtle, but had the Hulk costume underneath it to bulk himself up.  We honestly didn't spend money on it this year.  He had all the turtle gear from his Birthday.



And last but not least, our newest Taylor was a monkey.  I borrowed this costume from one of my friends who had thei son in it a couple of years ago.



We ventured out around 6:30 with some of our friends.  We had a great time!!






In the end, Mason had fun getting into Taylor's car seat and covering himself up.

We hope you had a good time as well!!
