Gwen at 2 Months

Gwen's second full month of life is in the books.

This month, Gwen continued to pack on the pounds. At a weigh-in in early September, she tipped the scales at 11 lbs., 5 oz. -- up over 3 pounds since birth. By the time her 2-month appointment came on 10/21, she was 12 lbs., 5 oz (90th percentile for weight, 50th percentile for height and head size).

She's getting much more attentive and likes to follow things with her eyes -- like the fish on her swing, or the Pooh characters on her mobile, or Morgan, of course.

As many of you know, Gwen's 2nd month of life also included her trip to the emergency room. Gwen spiked a fever over Labor Day weekend, and ended up being admitted to the hospital with an infection. After three days of poking, prodding, and lots and lots of antibiotics, she was finally sent home. Thankfully, she's doing fine now, and is back to her usual, happy self.

Speaking of which: after being egged-on by countless silly faces, Gwen finally flashed her first smiles this month.

Here are some photos from month #2.
