Jenna 2 Months



Aaaaahhhhh! Sleep is a wonderful thing. Jenna gave us a wonderful gift last night and slept 7 hours straight.....that probably won't happen again until she is a teenager and then we will have to drag her out of bed.

Yesterday was pretty rough. Constant crying thoughout the afternoon but when daddy came home she was all smiles :) Today has been great. Lot's of smiles and she is currently sleeping which gives me time to do this and catch up on my sleep.

Last Friday, Jenna developed a blocked tear duct in her left eye and we applied ointment 3 hours a day for 4 days. Although it was hard to get it in her eye, it sure beat the alternative which was eye drops every 3 hours with a tendancy to sting. I think we made the right choice and her eye looks normal.

Jenna sure is learning a lot about herself. She has found her fingers!!!! We see them in her mouth a ton lately. She is also kicking quite a bit and when we hold her, she is pushing off with her feet.

On occasion she will have her crying fits and is real fussy. Based on what I have read I do think she has colic, but what confuses me is she goes through this at different times of the day. Whatever it is, hopefully this is just a stage that will end soon :)

On Monday we head to the embassy for her two month check-up and shots. More info to come.............

Ken is staying very busy. Today, the admiral from SouthCom flew in and Ken's office has been slammed the last four weeks in preperation for his arrival. Next week Ken will travel with the Ambassador. Despite his very busy schedule and long hours at the office, Ken has been a great support system for me and a loving and doting father to Jenna. In fact, I had 10 ladies over for wine and desert last night and Ken took care of Jenna. I felt bad since he had an early morning. It is just one example of many where Ken gives me time to myself and the opportunity to hang out with the girls.
