2 and 2

Well its been a week of 2's here in chez Crosley. On February 13th, Emma turned 2 months old and on February 18th, Joe and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary.
Poor Emma had her 2 month doctors appointment where she got 4 shots. She was so happy when we got there, smiling and cooing at the nurse and doctor, then all the sudden they stuck her with that first shot and her face went blank, stuck her bottom lip out and began to wail! As they continued to administer the shots, 1 after the other, my eyes began to well up. It was so hard to see my sweet baby cry like she did. Aside from all the shots, Emma is doing great. She is now 11lbs 2 oz and 23.5 inches long. She is in the 80th percentile for height and 70th percentile for weight. Looks like our girl is going to be long and lean like her daddy!
Once Emma was feeling better, Joe proceeded to give her her first piano lesson:

She seemed genuinely interested in the keys and the music Joe played for her...Do I see another Mozart???

So last night, Joe and I got all dolled up, dropped Emma off at Grammy's, and went to a lovely dinner at the Wild Orchid in Annapolis. The food was wonderful and the company even better. We had a great dinner and were able to reflect on the past 2 years as husband and wife. We really have accomplished alot and built a beautiful life together that only gets better everyday. What a blessing to share life with my best friend!!! Here's to us and our wonderful marriage. I look forward to sharing many more years together!

I LOVE the picture of the two of you!
I wonder where they get the percentile averages? Are they by state? My LO was 11 lbs 13 oz and we were told that was 50th percentile for 2 months. Hm.
