2 Months


Wow 2 months has flown by!


5 weeks old

6 weeks old

7 weeks old

8 weeks old
For three weeks you got to go to work with me!  I loved you being there with me and will miss you when you start with Olivia your babysitter. 
You now love playing on your mat, well actually any mat in the floor!  You love being stretched out and able to move!  You also love being on your belly. I'm sure it helps with your belly aches you have been having. ( we have switched formulas 4 times!!). You are starting to feel better and even take some naps on your belly!  You might be a belly sleeper like mommy.  You now rub your eyes when are sleepy but you play so good all by yourself. You must wear yourself out!
Your eyes are still bright blue and gorgeous. Your eyelashes and hair( red tint) have really started growing.  You are getting bigger every day!
You now wear 0-3 month clothes and size 1 diapers. Bye bye newborn!
You drink 4-4.5 ounces every 3.5-4 hrs now. You are sleeping in your crib too (since 6 weeks). 
You had your first Halloween and dressed up as the very hungry caterpillar. 
You are cooing and smiling at people you recognize. We are so in love with you!!
The night before mommys birthday you went from 830pm-6am with Only 2 feedings! One we even had to wake you for. You fell asleep by yourself in your crib. Great birthday present for mommy!  At your 2 month check up you weighed 11 pounds 8 ounces and was 23 inches tall!!  Big boy!
Love mommy and daddy

The first month


I cannot believe a month has already passed!  You have changed so much already since you were born!  We love you so much!
You are trying to hold your head up on your own and trying to hold your own bottle :)
You lost your umbilical cord at 6 days old :) We were happy to be able to give you a real bath!  You love to go on walks and car rides...they usually put you to sleep.
At your first doctor's appt you weighed 7 pounds 13 ounces and 20.5 inches long.   (6 lbs 7oz 19 in at birth) You are starting to smile more and more! You now watch everything I do and sometimes try to mimick me.  You love hearing mommy and daddy's voices especially when we sing.  You have been to church 3 times now and you love it!
You are sleeping better too! esp. when we swaddle you.  Your longest so far is 5.5 hrs from the begining of one feeding to the next.
You still have the sweetest face.  Your hair is getting long (in some places :)) and curling when it is wet.  Your eyes are still the prettiest dark blue.  You still have super long fingers and toes!  You still wear mostly newborn clothes but are finally starting to fit into some 0-3 month clothes too!  You are also about to move out of the newborn diapers and into 1's.....I can't believe it!  Our big boy!
We love you so so much Lucian!
