2 Months Old

At 2 Months You:

• Have been giving us big beautiful smiles since 5 weeks old
• Are cooing up a storm
• Give strong eye contact to people and objects
• Your favorite items are you mobiles, you spend lots of time watching them move :)
• You are very intrigued by your sister, you look all around for her when you hear her voice
• Are wearing a lot of 3 mo. onesies, but are probably really a 0-3mo size.
• Still eat well every 3 hours
• Are unpredictable with naps. Sometimes you'll put yourself to sleep perfectly in your bassinette, will need to be rocked to sleep and then put on your tummy, or will cry and cry and cry and refuse to give into sleep!
• Your eating schedule on average: 7:30a, 10:30a, 1:30p, 4:30p, 7:30p, 10:30 (and then go to bed), and finally 3:30ish in the middle of the night!
• You take about 5 naps if all goes perfectly.
• You still have quite the hard time in the evening, you will fight sleep and will not be soothed!
• Just today you have been sucking on your left hand quite a bit when you are tired. You got your thumb in there on time. Do we have another thumb sucker in our midst? Maybe!
• LOVE TO BE HELD! It's very clear that you love to be in someone's arms :) (except for those rough evening hours when even our arms don't help!)
• Will sit in Mommy's lap and look at books while she reads them to you.
• Have much smoother skin. Your first month was plagued with baby acne, but it is no more!
• Had lost some hair on top, like a balding man, but are know growing it back
• Still have blue eyes and dark brown hair
• LOVE TO STAND! You get a eager, determined look on your face when we hold on to you and stand you up. You are so strong!
• Are the most precious little guy and Mommy doesn't want you to grow any faster!
