Two Months Old

Kieran-you are two months old today!  Wow, time has flown by so fast and you have grown like crazy.  It's hard to imagine how small you were taking you home in your car seat and now you fill the whole thing up. I don't know how much you weigh or how long you are, but we have your appointment on Thursday this week.

 You are wearing mostly 0-3 clothes, but we have had to retire a few pajamas in that size.  I would guess you will move onto 3-6 month clothes soon.  You wear a size 1 diaper and size 2 at night.  You still like to be swaddled at night and are sleeping anywhere from 3-6 hours.  It's a little bit inconsistent, but I'd say you average about 4 to 4.5 hours at a time.  You wake up to eat and go right back to sleep.  If you wake up too early Mom or Dad give you your paci (you just figured this out) and you'll usually go back to sleep for awhile.

 You also figured out how to take a bottle this month too! You love your baths and could sit in there for hours if we let you.  You are smiling all of the time now, especially in the mornings and it's so fun to see your whole face light up.  You are still a very calm and content little baby.  Mommy can take you out anywhere and you like to look around, doze off to sleep, or talk to us! I  took you to Minneapolis the other day for a haircut and to meet Livia Anderson and you seriously cried for a total of two minutes the whole time we were away. Sometimes when you are fussy you love to lay flat on your back and kick and stretch your arms.  You tolerate tummy time quite well.  You love to snuggle.  You will be baptized next Sunday at our church!

 Your sister, Dad and I love you SO very much. I am going to be so sad when I have to go back to work.  I love our time together! Daddy thinks he looks more like him when he was a baby everyday, but then he said we'll wait to see what happens for when you get hair:)  We love you Kieran and your sweet smile. We are so happy we have been blessed with you in our lives!
