Sadie Bug is 2 months!

Our little Sadie girl is 2 months old this week! We went on Tuesday to have her check-up and get those dreaded shots. The pediatrician said she gets an A on this visit. She is cooing, smiling in response to us, holding her head up better (even though she falls asleep every time we have tummy time!). Here are her stats and how they compare to Harrison's:

Weight: 11 lbs 14 oz, 75% (Harrison: 12 lbs 3 oz, 60%)
Length: 23 inches, 75% (Harrison: 23 1/2 inches, 60%)
Head Circumference: 15 3/4 inches, 75% (Harrison: 15 1/2 inches, 40%)

So far, she is catching up to him (considering she was almost a full pound smaller than him at birth).
She is still nursing very well, about every 3-4 hours during the day. She is sleeping through the night most nights. I usually feed her between 10:00-10:30 and she will sleep until somewhere between 6:00-7:00 most nights. Occasionally she will wake up around 3:00-4:00 to eat, but I can't really complain since the majority of the time she sleeps all night. Harrison was around 5 months old before he did that! Now we just have to get her sleeping in her bed. Brian and I still have to set up the monitor. We have delayed her sleeping in her crib because we are scared she will wake Harrison up. Plus, she does wake a little bit if she loses her pacifier, and I don't want to walk to the other side of the house to put her pacifier back in her mouth. She is napping pretty regularly in her crib during the day, so I feel like she is used to it by now.
The pediatrician also told us that Sadie has a very mild case of torticollis, which means her head is tilted slightly to one side. We have to do a couple of exercises with her several times a day to help stretch the muscle out. If it is not corrected by her 4 month check-up, we will be referred to physical therapy.
Now some pictures of our little angel!
