Violet meets the Blood Pressure Cuff

Asleep Soundly

The results of a vaccinated baby is a soundly sleeping baby.

2 Month Check-Up & Shots

Violet went in for her first official check up. I'm happy to report that Violet is a healthy baby girl and now that she's not being overfed, she's at a healthy weight. Generally Violet is within the 75% range for her age except for her height, she grew 3 inches since she was born and is in the 95% for height. I have a feeling, she's going to be tall just like mom and dad.

In general the appointment went quite well, unlike previous times when Violet has cried when Dr. Lee would examine her. Now she just chills out and enjoys the naked baby time. However, unlike previous appointment, she was going to receive her first round of vaccinations and I couldn't help but pity her.

Tee Hee: First Laugh (Sorta)

We were on our way to a party in San Jose and I was in the backseat entertaining Violet. She was gooing and cooing at me as I was sticking my tongue out at her. And then out of no where she laughed, there was no sound behind it but it was there. I can't wait until I hear her first laugh because seeing it was just too adorable.

Pollywog In A Bog

Jourdan found this video from the Barenaked Ladies new kids album and showed it to Violet. She has since watched numerous times on dad's laptop and mom's iphone. One time she was crying when the video started and then like magic once the singing started she quieted down to just sniffling and snorting.

Valetine's Day Gifts & Party

Jenny so kindly invited all of us to her house for cards and games on Valentine's Day. Violet was so well behaved and either slept or just rested in our arms. She was the perfect party guest for the entire five hours we stayed. The only mishap was when she peed on her outfit and had to spend half of the party topless. Oh that wild girl! Upon coming home we restocked her diaper bag with a clean outfit just in case such an occasion arises again.

We also opened our Valentine's Day presents. Dad got an Iron Man DVD from me and Violet, a Tropic Thunder DVD from Grandma & Grandpa Spears and some spending cash from Great Grandma Benefiel. Mom got a Wall-E DVD from Dad, a Mamma Mia DVD from Grandma and Grandpa and some spending cash from Great Granny. Violet got a new outfit from Dad, a heated wipe warmer from Grandma and Grandpa Spears and some cash for Violet's college fund from Great Granny.
