Two Months and Thriving!

Nora had her two-month doctor's appointment on Monday, and she is, in the words of my completely objective pediatrician, "perfect." She weighs 12 lbs, 3 oz. She's in the 86th percentile for weight, the 92nd percentile for height, and the 67th percentile f0r head size. Why this doesn't indicate that she will grow up to be a pinheaded giantess, I'm not clear; but the doctor said all is wonderful and that she's thriving. I love our pediatrician-- she always makes me feel like I'm doing things right. Here's an actual exchange we had on Monday:

Me: Nora drools a lot, but she's too young to be teething. Is that anything to worry about?
Dr.: Nope, it just means she's well hydrated. Good job!

Thanks for more evidence of my baby's superiority! I've stopped wiping spit off her chin, just to show off.
