Wow!  It’s hard to believe, but you are over 2 months old now!  You are growing up so fast….you can follow our faces with your eyes, you smile when something makes you happy, you’ve almost learned how to full on laugh, you are learning how to bat at things that catch your eye, you’ve started sleeping longer through the night (sometimes), you can go almost 4 hours between daytime feedings now, you’ve learned how to entertain yourself, and you are growing like a weed! 

We had your 2 month check up last week (7/8) and you were 23 inches long and weighed 10 pounds and 12 ounces!  You were right on for your weight but were above average for your height.  Even though your appointment was only 6 days ago, your father and I discussed the fact that you looked as though you had grown more just in the past week.  So, we decided to measure you… and we were right!!!  You were clearly 24 inches long last night…that’s TWO FEET tall!!!

Your looks have changed a bit since you were born.  You have really have started to take on the major facial features of  your father.  You have a few of my better features like my nose and hair; unfortunately you’ve gotten some of the not so great ones like my forehead wrinkles and a slightly lazy left eye.  The good news, I’ve lived 33 years with those things are have done just fine…I have no doubt you will, too.  🙂  The bottom line….YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! 

Your grandpa Terry and grandma Sue came over for dinner last night.  They got some good cuddle time in…it’s clear that they adore you! 

Though nothing can fully prepare me for it, I am trying to embrace the thought of you going to daycare.  It’s going to be SO hard for me to go from spending every hour of every day with you to only getting to spend about 6 hours a day with you.  🙁  I see many tears in your mommy’s future.
