two months



i'm a little late posting this but better late than never! i'm still trying to get caught up on blogging and have so much in my head that i want to write down. it's the trying to find time to write it all down  that i seem to be lacking in. kai turned 2 months on april 24th. he did pretty well with his shots but it was the saddest thing ever. he slept like a champ right after though so i guess they didn't faze him too much.

at his doc appointment, kai weighed 11 lbs, 7 oz (45th percentile) and was 23 inches long (54th percentile). 
he eats a ton and is starting to get a cute little belly. he still has some scrawny legs and arms, thanks to his daddy :).

he is wearing 3 month clothes right now. i didn't think he'd every grow out of the newborn size but i guess he has to grow up sometime.

he makes the cutest expressions. his little sad face is adorable and i can't get over how cute his puckered out bottom lip is!

he is starting to smile and talk a lot. it seriously melts my heart! he gets the most talkative right after he wakes up and right after he eats.

he can move his head all over the place and loves to look around. he is so interested in everything around him. he can't quite lift his head up when he is on his belly but he's getting pretty close.

he only wakes up once maybe twice a night. it's usually around 3am and 6am. at the 3am one i'll feed him but at the 6am one we try and get him to go back to sleep which he usually does. we've been trying to get him on a schedule and he's done pretty dang good at it so far. i'll feed him every 4 hours starting at 8am and then putting him down to sleep at 8pm. he has 2 naps during the day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. the only problem about the naps is that he loves to be held and will only fall asleep when he is. spoiled thing. i'm trying to not get him used to it but when it's the only way he'll sleep it's kinda hard! i still think he's too young to "cry it out" but what do i know, i'm just a new mom!

it's crazy how much everything is such a guessing game. for the most part though, i think he's a pretty dang good baby. he's so much fun to have around. it's almost like this is how it's always been. it's definitely hard to get things done during the day like i used to but it's so worth it.
