2 months

Stephen is 2 months old today! This month actually went by a little slower to me than the first month. I have really just been in the moment with him and enjoyed every second of this last month. We are just so in love with our baby boy!

Here is what he has been up to this month:

* As of today he is 11 pounds 12 ounces and is 23 inches long

* He wears 0-3 months and 3-6 month clothes. Regardless of size, the onesies barely snap at the bottom. he is a long boy!

* He eats 3.5 ounces every 3 hours.

* He still hates to be burped. As soon as you just slightly move him from the "eating" position, he starts screaming.

* He still wears size 1 diaper

* We started a schedule this month and he does great on it! Sometimes he gets a little off, but it is easy to get him back to it.

* He goes to bed at 9:30 and usually wakes up around 2 and then again at 6. Sometimes it is 1:30 and 5:30. We started swaddling him again this month and this made all the difference with his sleep. Once we swaddle him, he will be asleep in 5 minutes. At night he can get out of the swaddle though, so we use the woombie. It zips up the front so he can't get his arms free.

* He still loves to be held and we love to hold him!

* He is liking his pacifier a little more. He sucks on it longer than he used to. But if he is really mad or hungry, forget it! he wants nothing to do with the pacifier!

*He still loves his bath! We give him a bath every night as part of his night time routine. He can be fussy and crying and as soon as he gets in the bath he is content and happy!

* He is doing great with his tummy time and still loves to play on his play mat or in the bouncer.

We went to the doctor this morning and eveRything was great! He did have to get some shots though :(

I don't even remember taking this picture, but I think it is hilarious! We hold his pacifier like this all the time. You only have so many hands!
