Our "little" 2 month old

It's such a weird feeling when you have a baby. I can't believe Penelope is 2 months old - as it has gone so fast, yet at the same time it feels like she's been a part of our family forever. She turned 2 months on Thanksgiving - and boy am I thankful for her!




She also had her two month appointment yesterday and she is a healthy happy baby girl. By no means is she a "small" baby, but in comparison to the other "Jacoby" babies, she is definitely the smallest. She weighed in at 11 lbs 6 oz (61% percentile) and 23 inches long (70% percentile). Lucy was 12 lbs 13 oz at 2 months (90% percentile) and 23 inches too. (All the other "Jacoby" babies rocked the 90% for most of their first year in weight.)

In other news, Lucy is still loving her baby sister as much as ever. I know this Christmas is going to be even more fun than the last few, as she is really starting to get into all the fun kid's Christmas activities. She helped with the tree this year and is every interested in finding "Red" every morning after he reports to Santa at the North Pole every night.

A bit behind...

I realize I'm a bit behind on blogging. October may have been the busiest month of my life - and the best too! We are adjusting well to life with two and enjoying every crazy minute. Here are a few pictures from the last month. Here is a small photo recap. I'll try my best to do a better job of posting this month - promise :)

Penelope was Dedicated at our church this past Sunday. She was dedicated with her cousin Judah too, which made it even more special. She wore the Jacoby family gown that is over 100 years old and has been worn by her great grandpa, grandma, aunt, mom, cousin and sister. The blanket that is in the picture was Marcus' that was used during his dedication.
