Two Months


I'm posting this a week late because I wanted to wait until after his doctors appointment so that I could record his stats. He weighed in at 14 lbs 2.5 oz and measured 24 inches. Big boy!

He is growing out of everything at record speed. He needs 3 month or 3-6 month sized clothes. He no longer fits in the Puj tub (a small baby tub that fits in the sink), the infant insert for the Ergo carrier, or his small size fitted cloth diapers. I'm trying not to feel too heartbroken about it, but it's hard. My baby isn't a newborn anymore.

Win is really strong, and for a few weeks now he has been able to hold his head up for long stretches of time while he looks around. He seems to really enjoy observing his little world. And around 7-8 weeks he finally started to wake up, spending decent chunks of each day awake and alert. He is very cheerful and easygoing. I say that holding him for a few minutes is guaranteed to lower your blood pressure. He just oozes sweetness.

Now that he is more awake, he is becoming very smiley and social. He loves to catch your eye, flash a grin, and coo. He likes to sit and have little conversations, and of course he loves when his big sister pays attention to him.

At two months old, Win's favorite things are kicking his legs in the bath, having his diaper changed (he's always all smiles when I put him on the changing table), taking naps on my chest in one of our various baby carriers, and having naked time. That's such a boy thing isn't it? If he is at all fussy all I have to do is lay him down and take his clothes off, then he is the happiest baby in the world.
