Annette is two months old now and peoples' comments have changed from "so tiny" to "so chubby"! I take great pride in her rolly- polly thighs, arms, and cheeks after all that "demand feeding". At the clinic today she weighed 10.65 lbs, placing her in the 50th percentile. Hard to believe she is about double her birth weight (starting in only the 3rd percentile. She has grown 3 inches and is now 22" long.
Another nice change, her expressions are transforming from pained grimaces to heart melting smiles. Although she still is a bit colicky and fussy, it is slowly starting to improve. And that is making everyone in our house (and within ear shot) happy too!
If you want to see another big, beautiful baby check out my adorable niece, Anya Elizabeth born 2 weeks ago weighing 9 lbs 7 oz, and 21 inches. Although Annette is 7 weeks older than her cousin they are almost exactly the same size. How fun!

She looks like Josiah in these pictures! This weekend is our big musical, but after that I'll look at my schedule and we can talk...and then I can meet Annette!
i was going to say the same thing...she looks a lot like big brother!
congrats on the niece, too!
she's just as sweet as annette!
So cute...wow she's grown so fast! I was going to say the same thing as the other comments, she REALLY looks like Josiah now.
Oh, I am in love with those cheeks. She is giving her cousin Anya a run for her money with those kissable cheeks. You better tell her to watch out because Aunt Laura has a hard time keeping her lips off of plump cheeks! ;-) And way to go Mama with the milk production, impressive! ;-)
You seriously have the CUTEST kids EVER!!!! I love both the last two sets of pictures...thanks for sharing! :)
Awww, arn't chubby babies the best?! I loved my chubby baby, well she still is a little round about the edges...it keeps her looking young. :)
