Grapes, Pickles, and Lizard Tails

Last week we discovered that Abby like to suck on grapes. Mat was holding her while we were eating lunch and she was fussing, so he bit his grape in half and held it to her lips. She sucked on it while he held it (don't worry, he didn't put the whole thing in her mouth). She was very content with that. Today we were eating lunch and she was doing the same thing, only this time Diane was holding her and I was eating a pickle. She suggested letting Abby taste it and she liked it just as much as the grape. Oh Boy! So...Yesterday morning I walked out into the living room, holding Abby, and I saw a lizard tail flopping around the ground, Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Garfield thought it was the best thing ever. Sadly, the lizard didn't live, he was about 5 inches away curled up in a ball.

Ouchie!

Last night we were cutting Abby's nails, because she scratched herself on her face and made herself bleed, and accidentally cut her thumb nail too short. Poor baby! I felt so bad and because of that she had a bad evening and a bad night. Thursday night she slept for 7 hours straight, eeeeee! So exciting! Last night she went back to waking up two or three times, I can't remember which. We've also transitioned her into sleeping in feet pajamas from being swaddled, she looks so cute :)

Allergic to Milk

Abby had her two month appointment on Sept. 10. She weighed 10 lbs. 15 oz. and she was 23 1/2". Her doctor said she was around the 50th percentile in both areas. She also had some pretty bad eczema on her cheeks and all over the rest of her body. He said it might be because she is allergic to dairy products. Soooo, I've had to stay off of them, which is no fun at all, because I LOVE cheese! It seemed to be helping and the eczema went away, but in the last few days it has come back, so today I get to eat Mac and Cheese and see if it gets any worse, whoopie! Abby also had to get her shots, which was no fun at all :( We don't like hearing her scream. Other than that, all is well :)
