My Little Two Monther


 
 
2 months down, can't even believe it.  I think I'm starting to really figure out this whole parenting thing. ;) How FUN are you lately? Sooooo fun!  And I've heard each stage just gets better and better.  I can't imagine anything better than the non-stop smiling, agoo-ing and coo-ing, leg-kicking excitement stage...but I'm sure there is lots more fun to come!  You sure are a character.  And we just adore you.
 
Highlights and milestones this month:  You weigh 12 lbs. 12 oz at 8 weeks and are 23.5 inches long.
 
You smile at mama's loud sneezes and any time I say "gooooooood morning!".  You sneeze in multiples like your mama.  You have your daddy's crazy arm movements when you sleep, therefore you sleep swaddled and seem to prefer it.  Your eyes look more blue every day- how can that be?  (never imagined I'd have a blue-eyed boy someday)  You are grabbing at dangling toys and you recently discovered how great it is to suck on your hands.  I got your first squeal out of you! You can now entertain yourself in your crib for up to an hour- thank you for letting me sleep just a little longer, by the way... ;)

Baby Boy

I have just 5 more weeks of maternity leave and I'm trying to hang onto every second and make it the best.  I know as hard as it will be to leave you during the week, that it is good for us both to have time away from each other! Time for Mama to work and teach, and time for you to play and grow!!  I just keep thinking about how I've always cherished weekend time during the school year, but soon I will really understand the meaning of that!

Growing too fast!


Time sure is flying by my little monkey-man (that's my newest nickname for you) and I can't believe the growth spurt you've been having lately!  2 month post coming up soon...

A Few Things I've Learned Lately...

1. I could stare at you all day long. And I'm pretty sure the feeling's mutual. :)

2. You are sweeter than I ever imagined you could be.


3. I get tears in my eyes every time I think about going back to work and leaving you.

4. You make me laugh every single day...I can't wait until I can make you laugh!

5. "Agoo" is my new all time favorite word. EVER.

6. You have 3 very different cries so far- when you are hungry, when you are bored (the cutest), and when you are tired.

7. I'm not sure how it's possible, but I love you a little bit more every single day.
