Last week Asher turned 2 months old!
He got dressed up for a little photo shoot with crazy mommy.
This is definitely the first and last time he will wear those pants...TIGHT!
As you can see he is quite a happy baby. We don't have any new statistics on his growth/weight etc because daddy was out of town all of last week and we postponed his pediatrician appointment to this Thursday.
At this appointment he will also get his first round of shots! Ouch! Details to follow....
In the meantime we can tell you all of the great things he has been up to:
- Almost can hold his head up on his own
- Starting to hold himself up better in a sitting position
- Standing with assistance when he throws out his legs (which are ridiculously strong)
- Grunting, Groaning and Cooing
- Completely aware of his hands and feet
- Grasping Objects with his hands (especially my hair and Philip's chest hair)
- Swatting at objects intentionally
- He can lift his legs up almost 90 degrees off the ground when laying on his back
- Blowing raspberries and bubbles
- Smiling and Laughing (not just when he farts or is falling asleep
- He can lift up off his chest and fully extended his arms
- Sleeping 7-9 hours straight a night...and then going back down for 2-4 additional hours in the morning ALL in his crib and has been since day one
- Rolling over from stomach to back from both sides
- Fluttering his eye lashes
- Almost daily poopies (big deal for us!)
- Finally loves the car and usually falls asleep or into a relaxation mode
- Loves to be kissed on his big fat cheeks
- Loves his swing (he hated it the first 4 weeks of life)
- He loves to laugh at Nana's and talk at Softa's (more so than anywhere else)
- Spits minimally (once or twice a day)
- Burps like a champion
- Weaing 3-6 months or 6-12 months pants and 3-6 month tops or larger
- He has stolen our hearts and all we do is talk about him or admire him!
great our sons wear the same size pants!!
ReplyDeletehe is a cutie! miss you!
what in the world kind of clothes do you have?? ethan weighs over 16 pounds and can easily wear 3 month pants! isn't he so much fun now that he's smiling and happy? it's so different from when they're just aloof. don't worry about the shots, we had them at 1 month and 2 months and they were no big deal. happy 2 months to asher!
ReplyDeleteWhat a happy baby! Loved all his list of "things he can do!"
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear the stats on your healthy boy! Sounds like he's growing just right :). We're way out of 3 month clothes too. Mostly 9-12 at this point. Sounds like Mommy's milk is agreeing with him!
ReplyDeleteNot sure how you feel about meds, but I always gave mine a dose of Tylenol when we got to the doc so they'd have some on board for when they got their shots (and kept it on board for 24 hrs to keep them comfortable). They screamed for the actual shot and then gave a pacifier and cuddled them and they calmed right down. Hopefully Asher won't be too traumatized by them either!
