My B-boy (current favorite name I call you),
You are 2 months old and I fall more in love with you each day! Your daddy and I are so amazed at how much you change each day. You are really growing and making progress! You went to the doctor today for your 2 month check up and your vaccinations. I must say - you are a pro now after that no fun hospital stay. You took the shots like a champ! You are 12 pounds 6 oz (75-80%) and 23.5 inches long (75-80%). Such a big, growing boy! You still eat every 2-3 hours during the day and have some longer (6-7 hours) stretches at night. The other night you went for 8.5 hours! You usually eat around 7 and are in your bassinet and asleep for your long stretch at 8 or 8:30. You "normally" wake up between 1-2am, 4-5am, and then up for the day around 7:30. I'll be excited if we make it to one feeding during the night sometime soon, but I do love your sweet little face as you smile up at me in the middle of the night. You are quite adorable when you smile. I can't wait to see it more! You are looking at your dad and my faces more and more and tracking us as we move around you. It is sweet! You can hold on to objects and are beginning to shake them. You love music and when we sing to you. You are on an eat, play, sleep, repeat schedule during the day and you love sleeping in the M*by wrap on me or in the Baby Bj*rn on daddy.
We have been noticing that you favor looking to the right, and the doctor noticed right away that your head shape is a little lopsided because of this. She recommended that we start making you look to the left and sleeping with your head facing the left to even things out. I hope this can correct on it's own or we might have to think about a cranial band. I think you would look really cute in one, but would prefer not to have to go that route!
We are about to embark on an 11 day, 3 state, 3 plane flight, and one 7 hour car ride trip for Christmas...yikes! In the words of the pediatrician "you're brave!" We are excited for you to meet all of your family & I know they are excited to meet you.
Love you B-boy!
