Jack is 2 Months Old!

Our "little" Jack turned 2 months old on Sunday. The entire family is just head over heels for him. Even though it's only been 2 months, he fits in perfectly here.

Jack has been my "easy" child so far. He's getting pretty good at sleeping all night (went 8 hours one night last week!!!) and is falling into a great day time routine. He's a great eater and LOVES to nurse...we are working on trying to love the bottle too, he's does ok with it. His eyes are still bluish gray...the jury is still out on whether or not we'll end up with two blue eyed kids.

Jack gave us his first real smile on Christmas. He's been smiling and cooing ever since. He loves to play in his bouncer, L.O.V.E.S. music of any kind. In fact, we sat right next to the band at church a few weeks ago and he slept soundly through the loud drums and everything. Jack also likes to nap in his swing and is totally infatuated with his mommy. Ahhhh, a Mommy's boy...I'm in heaven. :)

Jack's appointment yesterday went great! He's weighing in at 14 lbs 10 oz...97th percentile for weight. Holy cow Batman. He's also 95th for his height but apparently has a small head at 25th percentile. LOL. He's in size 3-6 month clothes and almost ready for an upgrade. Size 2 diapers and the next box I buy I'm getting 3s. If all goes well (aka- he keeps his pace of gaining 2 ounces a DAY) he will go on solids at 4 months. Steak by 9 months is my goal...we can't have another kid in food therapy, my anxiety is through the roof about it already.

Jack is favoring one side of his head so we were prescribed LOTS more tummy time and to talk to Jack from his right side. He's strong and his neck is fine, but we just don't want to have a kid with a dented head.

Here are a few pictures of our chubster:
