Watch Me Grow!

Cal was two months old yesterday!  How did that happen!!  I know it sounds so cliche but time is flying by.  I just want him to stay my baby forever, but he's growing so fast.

This is what you are doing at two months Cal:

Weight:  11lbs, 11oz

Length:  23 inches

Eating:  You are breastfeeding exclusively.  You had your first bottle around one month and had no problems with that.  You have about one bottle every week, otherwise you are exclusively nursing.  You eat about every 2.5/3 hours during the day.  At night you will go 7-8 hours between feedings, which means mommy and daddy are getting some much needed sleep.  Thank you!  You spit up sometimes but nothing like your brothers did as babies.  When you do take a bottle you eat anywhere between 3-4 oz.  

Sleeping:  You are sleeping 7-8 hours at night, woohoo!  Occasionally you wake up in the night but usually I can get you do to go back to sleep without needing to feed you.  You are sleeping in the pack-n-play in mommy and daddy's room at night.  During the day you sleep 30-45 minutes at a time.  You prefer to be held when sleeping during the day.  You are my snuggler and I love it, but it does make it difficult for me to get much done during the day.

Milestones:  You started smiling around 5-6 weeks and we love to see your gummy smile!  You light up when your brothers talk and sing to you.  You are cooing and making noises when we talk to you.  You have started to bear weight on your legs, you are very strong!  You don't mind tummy time, when we remember to do it.  :)  You celebrated your first Christmas and played baby Jesus at church on Christmas Eve and at the birthday party for Jesus.  You were so angelic and slept through your "performances."

Just for my own documentation here is his one month pic and stats

Eating:  Nursing only.  Eating every 2-3 hours during the day and 4-5 hours at night.
