I really wanted to post about Lila's two month check-up since I forgot to last week.  It turns out she's in the 80th percentile!  She's 23 inches long (grown 2 inches in 2 months!) and 11 lbs. 13 oz. (gained almost 4 lbs!).  It's amazing that a diet of 100% milk can allow babies grow so quickly. Can you imagine drinking nothing but milk 24/7?  Yuck!  Lila was a champ when she got her shots at the check-up.  We created an accidental diversion that worked great.  Lila seemed hungry, so I decided to feed her a few minutes before the nurse came in.  When I had to take her off so she could get her shots, she was VERY upset.  She was crying so hard wanting to go back to breastfeeding that I don't think she even noticed the shots.  As soon as I gave her what she wanted (more food), she was fine and she wasn't even fussy the rest of the day.  I guess her hunger worked out to be a great distraction!  I was really worried she would feel sick for a day or so, but luckily she seemed just fine.  It's crazy that she's not a newborn anymore...she's going to be a big girl soon!  I'm enjoying every single minute, but it's kind of sad to see her growing up so fast.  I love that girl!

Boring post with no pictures : (
So bad news...I dropped our camera and it broke!  I feel horrible!  Like a typical mom, I had about 25 bags draped around various parts of my body as I was trying to get from our garage to the house and it fell out of one of them on to the concrete floor.  We need to get a new one ASAP because it's my birthday so I want to take a picture of our night out, but more importantly because Lila's first Halloween is next week!  I'm still trying to decide if she's going to be a ballerina or a 50's girl.  I made a tutu and a poodle skirt this week, so I've got both options pretty much ready.  We will definitely get pictures of Halloween somehow.

That's horrible about your camera. I'm surprised it hasn't happened to mine. I do the same thing with carrying lots of bags. (Why make two trips if you can do it one, right?) I saw your parents at the Redondo 2nd Trunk or Treat last night. Your mom was telling me about Lila's cute costume. Either one will be adorable. Have a good week and good luck with the camera shopping.
