Benjamin's bedroom

Thanks to Grandma and my hard work, Benjamin now has a fully decorated bedroom!!

2 Months

Today Benjamin is 2 months old and he now weighs 14lbs-14oz (97th percentile) and is 24 1/8" (90th percentile) tall! I don't have any pictures to post of him on his 2 month birthday as he is not very happy today. He got his immunization shots and my poor boy has just been miserable ever since! So the following pictures are of him in happier times, playing with his favorite toys. The lamaze block he loves to thread his arm through and wave all around. The sesame street toys makes him laugh as he wildly waves his arms at them and makes them swing.

Our new dog

Okay, it's really still Maully...but she looks like a new dog :) Sam and I decided to shave her to reduce the amount of fur in our pool and our house! Took us 2 hrs - that dog has, or really had, a lot of fur. But at least now her head looks proportional to the rest of her body!

Grandma was on a roll with packing....
Such a rare occurance to see him sleep during the day, we had to capture it on camera!

Long awaited updated

Well, we've been a little slow in updating our blog. We've been trying really hard to get Benjamin on a schedule so that he would sleep more during the day (or for that matter sleep at all!) so the blogging fell behind. So to summarize: at his 1 month appointment, Benjamin was 11lbs-10oz and was 23.5" tall (95th percentile for both). We had to return to the doctor 1 week later as he went from being a baby that never spit up or burped to vomitting, so they wanted to make sure he wasn't losing weight. He weighed in at 12lbs-4oz, so no reason to worry! The vomitting was probably just a mild form of acid reflux and now we just keep a lot of burp cloths around when feeding. He has also started to hold up his head when on tummy time and just adores looking at himself in the mirror or watching his mobile. And those are really the only major changes...so enjoy the pictures.
