Two Month Stats...

**Thank you, Christy, for allowing me to totally rip this off of your blog. :)

My son turned 2 months old on Monday...and I have no idea where the time has gone?!?

We had his 2-month visit today at the Pediatrician's office and other than a few shots at the end, all went perfectly! He weighs 11 lbs, 13 oz (just under the 50th percentile) and is 23 inches long (50th percentile).

BUT...the best news of the whole appointment is that the doctor thinks that since he hasn't lost his hair by now he might keep his gorgeous dirty blond fo-hawk!! :)

He currently:

*smiles and coos like crazy!
*"standing" up and holding his head up like a big boy
*sleeping from 9pm-8am with one feeding @ about 5am
*loves his swing
*watches Hailey run around like a crazy lady and is very entertained by her!
*has started to giggle!!!
*is more content outside than in the house
*perks up when he hears his daddy's voice! :)
*has a touch of reflux that is very manageable with baby Zantac twice a day
*wakes up HAPPY...just like his sister!

**Pause, please!! It's such a gift to have this awesome healthy baby! :)

Soooo Big!

This boy is changing before my very eyes...I can't believe how quickly he's leaving the newborn stage. Pause, please!! :)

The Beach...

Thank you Leslie for taking these spectacular pictures...how you made my cute girl look even cuter is beyond me! :)

Privacy Please, Mommy!?!

Please forgive the most current "theme" of our lives lately...when it comes time for potty training, you begin to think that everyone wants to hear the "ins & outs" of the process... ;)

That said, Hailey has recently overcome her phobia of going poop on the potty. This, of course, is a HUGE deal...since it makes for NO DIAPERS to clean up!! Yay, Hails...

However, she has also sprouted a bit of an independent streak and begun going potty by herself on her little training potty. Yesterday, I used the advice of several moms and thought I'd "move things along" by giving Hailey a Fiber One granola bar. Let's just say, it was successful. She...ahem...went "big potty" 6 TIMES! By herself. And by about the 4th time, we'd walk her into the bathroom, she'd sit down, and then she'd say, "Leave me!"

We could NOT be more proud of this girl...or more excited about the lack of toddler diapers to change!?! :)

My Newly Arranged Living Room...

I decided today that I wanted my glider in the living room, so there was some re-arranging that needed to take place before it would fit...so we went to town moving things around and this is what we came up with.

Once we add a few things to the wall we'll be all set!

Bumbo...

Here's the boy...in the Bumbo seat! He doesn't quite know what to think about it, but he held his head up REALLY well. My baby is getting bigger!?! :)

Today he turned 8 weeks old...where does the time go?!?

It's a bird-bath?? Oh...
