The 2 month check up!!!!!


We are the Fife twins, and we are 2 months old now. We can’t believe it has been 2 months since we were born, but here we are, healthy and ready for the world. We had our 2 month check up today, and went to see our cool doctor.


I am Connor David Fife. My first name, Connor, is my Grandma Teresa’s maiden name, and my middle name is after my AWESOME dad. I like to make lots of funny faces. My mom says I have a duck face that I make and that I get it from my dad. People say that I look like my Papa Craigory. Grandma Carma was the first to make that observation. I have blond hair, as of right now it appears I have beautiful blue eyes, and long black eyelashes. Mom says I started smiling when I was about 6 weeks old. Just little smiles though, but now I love to smile when I have a full tummy. I love to look at people, and at my surroundings. I also like to cuddle. I have a couple nicknames, they are…Con Man, Yoda, Thing 1, Baby A, Tri-Pod and Lefty. Lefty is a secret name that my doctor gave me today that only him and my parents know the meaning of. At my appointment today I got weighed and measured, and some shots. They hurt, I am not going to lie, and I cried, but I took it like a champ. I weigh 11 lbs 11 oz. I am 23 ¼ inches, and my head is 39 cm.




I am Skyler LaGrand Fife. My mom picked my first name because she has always liked the name, and LaGrand is my Great Grandpa. Around Thanksgiving time I started to smile a lot. Grandma Carma was the first to get big smiles out of me, and then Grandma Teresa got even more out of me over Thanksgiving. I love to be held a lot, but when I am not held, I have a stuffed elephant I like to cuddle with. Dad says I hold my head up well, and like to look around. I have brown hair, and I think blue eyes, and long eyelashes. Most people say that I look like my mom’s side of the family, and some say I look like my dad’s. Surprisingly, I don’t look much like my twin brother. To keep things simple, mom dresses me and blue, and gives me anything that is blue. She did this to help other people tell the difference between my brother and me. Why me you ask…. Easy, my name is Skyler, the sky is blue…thus, I get everything blue, Connor gets the leftovers. I have some nick names that people call me, they are… Sky Man, Sprite, Thing 2, and Baby B. We went to the doctor today, and mom was quite disappointed that I did not pee on the doctor like I did last time. I was a bit ornery for my check up, and the doctor said I was colicky. I also have a bit of trouble with my breathing so I have to go to an ENT later this month to get checked out. I weigh 12 lbs 4 oz, and am 22 ½ inches and my head is 40 cm.

Might I say "adorable" again! We can't wait to meet them in person. Thanks for the details and stats. It makes us feel like we've already met them. Lefty huh? We have a pretty good guess about that nickname being that we have two boys also. You guys are so blessed and those babies are blessed to have you as parents. Sorry to be so cheesy but that is me. (-: See you soon!!
