the scweam'a

chloe got a new nickname while on vacation...i think thanks to aunt traci. the screamer (pronounced scweam'a). we decided that's what aunt joni would call her. she usually screams when-
she's pooping. child still does not like to poop.
or when i'm changing her clothes. which i don't get. she's got a great wardrobe.

it is awful. sometimes my ears ring.

i did not think the scream could get any more high pitched. but, today it did. she had her two month checkup and had to get those awful shots. and the scweam'a was out in full force. and tears came with it. i'm pretty sure chloe would say it's the worst day of her life. and oh my, this afternoon when she had to poop combined with the pain from her shots...get out the ear plugs. poor thing. i tried reverse psychology this morning and put on her 'tough chick' shirt in preparation for her shots. i'm not sure it worked. today aside, she is usually a delightful little lady. this is the sweet face i usually see.



she smiles like crazy, coos at me after she eats, and "talks" to herself up in her crib at naptime. although part of me wishes she'd always stay my baby, i love seeing her grow and change. her two month stats-
weight-11 lb. 4 oz. 50-75 percentile.
height-22 in. 25-50 percentile. i love that gray is already taller than her.
head-38 cm. 25-50 percentile.

she's in the same percentile's as she was at her one month appointment. i think petite is a good word to describe her.

we also decided that lucy, madelyn and chloe are in a punk rock band called 'the scweama's' just like their mothers. i think chlo has a shot at lead vocalist.

we are getting excited for halloween...just a little trick or treating at the grandparents. i am attempting to make part of chloe's costume :/ we'll see how that goes...
