While Daddy's away, the girls will... play?

Harper had her 2 month appointment last week and she was a whopping 10lbs. 9oz.! She sure is growing! She also got her first round of vaccinations and it was absolute torture. I'm still not sure she needed all of them, but they group them together so there are fewer shots. We'll need some for travel, so we just had to go with it. It was very hard to see her scream when the gave them to her. She was also 'not right' for a week following the shots. I'm not sure if she was just tired and off in her routine (we stayed with Karen & Sal for a few days), or if her tummy was upset from the Rotovirus and Pertussis vaccines (that was my guess). Poor thing! Thankfully, she's back to her mostly happy self now.

She has been sleeping great through the nights with only one feeding around 3-4am. This has been pretty consistent for almost a month now and we're all thrilled! Such a good little sleeper... we hope it continues FOREVER!

No pictures this time, Daddy has the camera in China with him. It's been hard having him gone, but we're trying to keep busy. We spent 3 nights at Karen & Sal's house... it was so nice to have the company and support while we were there! Julie was here Sun-Thurs, which was amazing. Just to have some social outlet was key for me, and we even made it to the Med for dinner one night. We're very sad now that she is gone. We're on our own for a few more days until Tom is back. Cana kindly called & offered to watch Harper on Sunday for a couple of hours so I can go do something for ME! I'm going to go get my poor horse moving and spend some time at the barn. I am badly in need of some horsey time!!!
So, while Daddy's away, the girls aren't really playing... just surviving till he gets home! Come home soon Daddy, we miss you!!!
