Two Months


Our little Rhys is now two months old. Oh, he is growing up too fast. He has absolutely been a blast since he's been here and he's getting more fun each day. He has been a great baby so far. Of course he gets fussy, but what baby doesn't. He's been smiling for about a month now, but they're now coming more often and out of the middle of nowhere. I'll lay him on the bed for a minute and walk away, and when I come back he'll be smiling at nothing. I love it. He has 2 adorable dimples, but one is bigger than the other. He's really starting to "talk" and coo at us. He's just a fun, fun baby. Oh and his biggest accomplishment so far is that he rolled over last week!! It was totally a fluke during tummy time, but it's a start right??

He had his 2 month appointment last week and he is now 10 lbs 15 oz and 22 1/2 inches long. He's growing now which is great. We had a little trouble with him at first with gaining weight, but now he's taking off. He's definitely not a chubby baby, but he's getting more rolls on him. We are just having the time of our lives.

Sleep is getting a little better. He usually falls asleep around 10 PM and won't wake up until 3:30 or 4. Then after that he's up a little more often, but it helps to get that longer chunk of sleep. I can usually get him to sleep until 8, but that means he's sleeping in our bed or on me after 6 AM. But if it helps me get that extra hour, I'll take it. We have fun going for run/walks every morning. He loves it when we go for walks in our neighborhood. He always sits there so content and they're usually 30-40 minute walks. If I want to run, we go to a trail close by. He doesn't stay so content during these, unless I'm running. Unfortunately, I'm still working on my stamina, so running the entire time we're out is pretty impossible for me. But I'm working on it:)

I officially turned in my two weeks notice at work today. As of June 26th, I will no longer be a Wal-Mart employee. It feels weird, but this new adventure in our lives will be great.

Just wanted to give a little update and I wanted to post some video... if anyone's interested in watching my baby just lay there and do things that probably only we think are cute:) Enjoy!!
