2 1/2 months

Gavin is 2 1/2 months already. Seems like it was yesterday that he was born. Sniff sniff.

He is not as fond of this surfing tummy time mat as the other boys were, but we work him out anyway.
OH, there he goes...
almost over....
he did it!

and boy is he proud!
2 month smiles are finally here and we're lovin' it
Ok, Mom, I've had it with the tummy time thing
(so he kept rolling over every time I put him back, ha ha)
2 months stats at the well visit: (Aug 17th- 8 weeks)
  • 11 lb 14 oz (4 1/2 lbs up from birth weight!)
  • 23 inches tall (3" gain)
  • 2 vaccines : HIB and PCV (we chose these b/c the big boys are going to preschool)
Other fun Gavin facts:
  • he has been to movie theater twice and the beach a handful of times
  • the beach is a sleeping pill for him - sleeps the entire time!
  • he continues to amaze me with his fabulous napping skills - especially the middle of the afternoon nap. Usually from 1pm -4pm
  • he goes to sleep at night fairly consistently around 8pm in the bassinet and wakes up for the day usually around 7:30am - nursing 2x inbetween
  • he is happy and goes with the flow - rarely ever cries (amazing with all that screaming/crying nonsense goin' on around him!)
  • he likes his carseat and frequently sleeps in it (2 hours!!) while we are out and about
  • he basically skipped 0-3 mo size - going from NB straight to 3-6 mo
  • we are using up the rest of our size 1 diapers b/c he really needs a 2
  • he still likes his Avent binky and takes a bottle (breastmilk) whenever we give it to him
  • GOOD BOY GAVIN!!

What?! Even with your blog updates, I still feel like I have no idea what's going on. I can't believe 2 months has flown by already. He's definitely got those Baker boy good looks.
