2 months



You are two months old today.  I knew this day was coming soon but I still can't believe it's here.  You're growing up so fast.  We went to the doctor on Wednesday for your two month appointment and you gained two pounds and grew one and three-quarters inches last month!  You do like to eat :)  Here are this months stats:

Length: 23 & 3/4 inches

Weight: 12lbs 15oz

Likes: bath time (you recently discovered splashing in the tub and you LOVE it), taking naps in your swing, watching Hans during tummy time, smiling, trying to have conversations with mom and dad, getting your diaper changed

Dislikes: getting overly tired, getting your diaper changed in the middle of the night, when you knock your paci out of your mouth, when you're trying to eat your hands but can't keep them in your mouth


Special talent: staring at your hands, trying to eat your hands, swatting at objects

Sleep: You were giving me a 5-6 hour stretch when you went down at night and then a two or three hour stretch, but now you're back to being up every 2-3 hours.

Favorite book: any Eric Carle book.  I think you like the bright pictures.

Eight Weeks

Baby boy, you are eight weeks old already!  I can hardly believe how big you seem already and have a hard time remembering what we did without you.  The past few weeks you've been smiling and cooing at me a ton, which makes me so happy.  I love that you are so excited to see me every time you wake up.  I love when I'm sitting at the computer with you in my lap and I look down at you to see you giving me the biggest grin, like you were just waiting for me to pay attention to you.  You make me feel loved.  If you only knew how much I love you already.
