2 Months Old



Size:  Grayson is wearing size 2 diapers now, such a big boy!  I struggled with packing away his newborn size clothes.  I'm struggling even more packing away size 0-3 months.  That's right, our little porker is wearing 3-6 months.  I'm not sure about his length and weight.  He has another appointment with the doctor soon.


Favorite Things:  Flirting!  He loves to flirt.  He can win over a crowd in seconds

 
Grayson LOVES bath time!  He acts like it's a day at the spa.  So relaxing!  I love the way he smells after a nice bath, coated in lotion!  Grandma gives him a bath almost every day.  I'm convinced that she must have done with me, resulting in my super dry skin.  Thank Mom!  :)
He will hate me one day for this pic - but I love all his little man-meat! :)

He loves his kick and play piano!  This is his favorite wake time activity!






David enjoyed his first Father's Day!  We went with my family to Bayville Park.  I took Grayson on the swing and he immediately fell sleep.  By the way, I love the Baby Bjorn.  It's a great way to travel with him.  He was a champ all day at the park!




What we’ve learned:  We have learned to have patience. It’s amazing how hard the first month seemed.  There were some days that we were ready to return him for a refund.  We have learned that he can sense our frustration.  Slow down and enjoy it! We’ve also learned to be incredibly selfless. Everything we do is with Grayson in mind!

What we’re enjoying right now: Smiles!  The smiles are addictive.  Morning time is the best.  He seems to be the happiest first thing in the morning....after his meal of course.  He smiles ear to ear in the morning!  He has also started to coo.  We love interacting with him.  We are also enjoying more sleep!  Praise God for a good sleeper!  Grayson has slept about 7 hours a night consistently since week 4.  One night, he gave us 8.5 hours straight.  He must get those mad sleeping skills from his mama. I love sleep!


What our biggest struggles are: I wouldn't say we're struggling with anything.  We haven't mastered parenting by any means, but we're adjusting just fine.


What we’re not looking forward to:  Grayson gets his first round of shots soon.  I am not excited about this at all.  David will have to hold MY hand through it!


What we’re looking forward to: Laughs!  David and my mom have heard him laugh.  It made me sick that I missed it.  

2 months overall = awesomeness! 

We have figured out your cries and how to fix them.  
You are on a great schedule.
We are so blessed to have you in our lives!  I can't imagine it any other way!
