10 Weeks Old

Elise is 10 weeks old. She had her 2 month visit to the Dr. last Friday and they measured her 24 inches long & 11 lbs. 14 oz. She's in the 90th percentile for height & 50th for her weight. Our pediatrician told us that when babies are 18 months old, you can look at their percentile for height and then compare to the same percentile in the adult charts and closely predict how tall she'll be as an adult - interesting!
I don't think I've mentioned it on our blog, but Elise is also sleeping through the night, ranging about 7-8 hours. This is great! And she's also beginning to establish more of a daily routine as well.
We've been trying to get out and take her for evening walks (well, actually she gets to ride in the stroller - her parents are doing the walking) and there have been a few evenings where this is possible - but it's been very sticky here lately. Charlotte is very dry and we've gone 22 days without rain - the last rainfall was July 30th, so the grass & shrubs look a little dried out right now. In our neighborhood we have Yard of the Month - and let me tell you - to win yard of the month for August this
year should yield double the rewards.
That and a very high water bill.



Here's dad helping out with bath time!
