Growing...

Our little man turned 2 months old this last Sunday. Part of me can't believe it's been 2 months already, and another part of me feels like he's always been here.

We had our 2 month check up today and he weighs 12 pounds and is 23 inches long. He's really strong and holds his head up like a champ. Still has a wee bit of bobblehead happening, but as time goes on he seems to be gaining better control.
His hair is still strawberry blond in color and it's growing back in on the sides, so he's got less of the trump comeover going on. His eyes sometimes look brown, and sometimes look hazel/greenish...we really can't tell - and it seems to depend on what he's wearing, so who knows what color they'll end up being.
He had to get an oral vaccine and two shots in each leg today...poor little guy. He screamed during the shot process, but once I picked him up and cuddled him, he calmed down quickly - quite the trooper I must say!
He's really starting to smile alot now - and I just know that he's right on the verge of laughing which I can't wait for :)

I have several posts half completed, so this week I'll try and get them finished to finally catch up on this blog. In the meantime....squishy baby pics and even some video!!



One of my vendors at work, from the LA area, who I speak with all the time - but don't actually know, sent my kid a blanket embroidered with his name and date. I took some pics to email...




He actually thinks he can hold his own bottle now...

This is a super short, accidentally filmed video of his tummy time. I was trying to take a picture and had it on video instead. Thought it was cute anyway :)

Hubs is home this week - and since our boy is pretty sleepy after his crazy shot-filled morning, I just snapped these pictures of them snoozing on the couch.

Be Still My Heart!!

Yes! An update with tons of perfectly squishy, just want to pinch his cute chubby cheeks pictures!

12 pounds!?! Holy toledo! He's gonna pass up Aubrey in about, um, two days. I can't believe how big he looks in those pictures. And the smiles... he's so handsome! Way to hold up his head! He's moving along so fast.

Thanks for posting. I've been thinking of you recently. Glad everything is going well.

Yea, you're back! I've been in desparate need of some squishy baby pics. I especially love the second one with the blanket.
Saw your comment on Kelly's blog and had to race over to see that you'd updated.
Keep em' coming!

Aren't the hubby/son sleeping pictures just the best? I have a lot of them with Bryan. But are there any of me? No, because I'm always busy doing something! :-)

Yeah for smiling! Head control! Tummy time!

P.S. Theo had those same jammies but quickly outgrew them. So cuddly!
