Two Months!

A few days ago Elliott turned 2 months old!  I can't believe it!  He has gotten super adorable over these two months.  He goos and gaas up a storm, he wiggles like a little worm, he flipped from front to back 3 times (but I think it was a fluke!), and he is sleeping longer stretches.  Last night, he slept from 11 to 5:30, ate, and then slept until 8:30!  This busy little guy has already been on 2 long road trips--first to Kentucky for Andi's wedding, then to Long Island to meet his great-Poppy Syl.

He has finally upgraded to size one diapers (he probably should have done so sooner, but we had one kabillion newborn diapers to use up)!  He wears size 0-3 clothes, although he is starting to get a little long for them.  I don't know how much he weighs as his next doctor's appointment is not for a couple of weeks still.

Oh, how you've grown!

Life with a baby is finally starting to get a little easier--I don't panic every time we leave the house.  He is going longer stretches between feedings, so it is way easier to get things done.  His sleep is starting to get a bit more consistent, although we are still working out naps and bedtimes, and he is alert for much longer stretches.  He is doing better holding his head up, though he still has a slight case of bobble-head syndrome.  He loves to sit on laps facing outwards now, but speaking of being held, he would much prefer to be left lying on his back so he can kick and wiggle.  This little guy is really only cuddly when he is extremely tired.  And forget tummy time, more like temper tantrum time.


Despite the fact that he is not supper cuddly, he absolutely melts my heart.  Can't imagine life without this precious little baby.
