Sleeping Beauty
Savannah is slowly getting the idea that sleeping is, in fact, not so bad after all.
The only problem is, she pretty much only falls asleep THIS WAY [and you must either be walking around or bouncing on the yoga ball.]:

Valentine's Fun
Savannah is quite the lucky girl. Everybody seemed to remember it was her first Valentine's Day. She got a sweet card and a YUMMY dinner out to Graffiti's from Nana and Gran [well everyone else ate, anyway!]. She got plenty of cards in the mail including one from Melissa in Memphis. She even got some valentine presents from her parents, CC and Grandad and her Anna and Aaron!
We got her mostly some things she already needed. Poor girl has practical parents. She got some baby wipes, some stylin' pacifiers, and then a few cute little valentine and heart-shaped plates and a heart sippy cup for a few months down the road. She clearly LOVED everything.
Oh my goodness! All these outfits? For me??? Thanks Anna and Aaron!
What do you mean, I can't wear them until summer? They won't fit?? What???
CC and Grandad sure want me to be cute! I love my monogrammed onesie and baby leggings, and my mary jane socks!
But Rascal the Raccoon is the cutest thing ever! Sock monkey turned raccoon!
C'mere Rascal, I'll give you a hug.
Thanks for loving me and dressing me cute guys! [you should see what mama buys--eek! I mean, did you see my 'practical' Valentine gift??? seriously, people...]
See ya tomorrow!

CUTEST baby booty with the ruffles!
See? These cheeks are SERIOUS.

2 month checkup and pictures
Having Savannah around makes it seem like time passes so quickly! I feel like she just got here, and now she's already over 2 months old. I've already had to pack up all her newborn clothes and things she can't use anymore and it is very sad. :)
She looked so cute and cuddly at her 2 month appointment. She and Aaron had a great time hanging out. She and nurse Tosha, however, probably won't be fast friends anytime soon after those shots! She got 3 shots and 1 immunization by mouth to swallow. She did really well with all of them and only cried for a second. She also slept for 6 hours straight that night and most of the next day and had no negative reactions to them. I'm down for getting immunizations weekly if she'll sleep that great! hah! [Savannah might not agree with that idea though]
Savvy C weighs a whole 11 pounds and half an ounce. She is 22 1/4 inches long, and head measurement was 15 inches. She is still not sleeping through the night, but is sleeping for at least 4 hour periods right now. She is getting to be a chunky monkey and people are commenting on how she must 'not miss any meals' and 'oh those cheeks!'. Obviously we're doing one thing correctly. She is still wearing size one diapers and is in all 0-3 month clothing. [some of which is getting tight!]
SCM has a couple of things we are watching health-wise. She has a little bit of plagiocephaly on the back of her head where it is flat and her bones haven't fully separated yet. She also has a UTI that she is on RX for, as well as a diaper rash from the RX that has to be treated with another RX cream. Then she's got the kidney issues we are trying to find the cause for so we can treat and cure the condition of hydronephrosis that she has. Finally, there's the COLIC that we are dealing with. She cries A LOT and we can't find any reason she's crying, so Aaron has determined she is very colicky.
All that aside, she can be a super sweet and happy baby. Each day she is smiling more, so I think she is finally feeling better. However, we did take her 2 month pics on her 2 month birthday, when she was super sick still. Therefore, none of them are great but oh well! Such is life!

hey mama, hey daddy! What are we doing?
We're doing what? more pictures??
Did you sign up for this, Dumbo? Me neither!
I'm warning y'all, this isn't gonna go well. I'm sick, for crying out loud!
Dumbo, whisper in my ear the way outta this crib!
A pouty lip is all it takes?? I can do that on cue!
Daddy to the rescue!
Mama wants to try for more? Dumbo says no.
Ok, Panda and I can cheese ONCE!

Too cute not to share! S found her tongue while I was sick. She mimics me when I stick my tongue out. :) Please excuse my crazy voice.
