2 Months

(Ethan all cuddled up on mommy)

Today we had Ethan 2 months appointment today… the dreaded first vaccines!!! I think I was more worried than he was, what am I talking about? Of course I was more worried, he had no idea what was going on let alone knowing what a needle was or felt like. My poor boy. I think it was the first time that he felt pain. My heart broke. On a brighter note, he is now 12 lbs. 12 oz. He has gained 2 lbs since last month and he is 60cm (24 in) ALMOST 2 feet!! The doctor says he is big (tall) for his age, but he’s healthy and that is all that matters.

Everyday I notice his development (he’s going to be smart like his mom! Ha ha ha). He is more alert, he can see further, he looks at you when you talk, he smiles the biggest smiles and coos when he wants to “talk”. He gets excited when daddy comes home from work and greets him with big smiles. He is getting stronger and tries to stand up when you hold him, or tries to climb up mommy and daddy like we are mountains. I love to see what new things he will do each day.

Ethan still HATES his car seat! Which stinks, because that means he doesn’t enjoy car rides or walks! This week I am trying to get him back on the bottle so I can leave him with Jon for more than an hour or two. I bought a new bottle with a nipple that resembles a breast more, so cross your fingers for me, I’ll introduce this to him tomorrow.
