June 1, 2007 I am starting a routine tonight – or at least trying. - 7pm - Bath, pajamas, book, bed… let’s hope it works
June 1, 2007 You are holding your head up so well. When I lay you on the floor – you completely lift your head up. When I hold you over my shoulder – you hold your head up too. So strong and sweet!
June 1, 2007 You are watching us more. Your eyes are focusing more and started to be observant of what’s around you.
June 6, 2007 Routine didn’t go so well….
June 15, 2007 You smiled at me today and I KNEW it was meant just for me. It melted my heart.
June 17, 2007 You laughed out loud and smiled really big. You love to laugh and smile.
June 20, 2007 You had your 2 month check-up today
Weight: 13.6 pounds
Height: 23 inches
Head:
Dr. Betty says you are doing wonderful. You are holding your head up and keeping it up very well. She was quite impressed. You are also laughing out loud and both are 4 month old tasks. Yea for you!
At 2 months you are – June 23, 2007:
· Holding your head up very well and keeping it up for a long period of time
· Smiling a lot
· Following us w/your eyes
· Laughing out loud
· Drinking 4-5 oz. every 3-6 hours. You are kind of all over the place w/feedings. You aren’t on a set schedule at this point.
· You are wearing 0-3 months. The shorts fit you – but the onesies are getting tight, so we’ll have to go to 3-6 months soon.
· You are wearing size 2 diapers
· You are still waking up every 3-4 hours to eat. Although last night (June 22, 2007) – you went 6 hours w/o eating
· You take most naps in the swing. Which I hope to break this week (June 23, 2007) will Daddy’s in Myrtle. You sleep in your crib at night and I sleep on a twin bed in your room.
June 23, 2007 Bad news is: I started you on prevacid today
We aren’t sure if you have reflux or the swallowing Issue that your William had. We are hoping the prevacid Will clear it up. You choke during feedings, gag after feedings, and make a loud gasping noise sometimes during feedings. Dr. Betty is hopeful that it is reflux.
July 22, 2007 You went 6 hours w/o eating at night. Woo Hoo!
June 23, 2007 I am going to try to start the routine again tonight hopefully it will go well for us.
June 25, 2007 The first time you met your Oma. She came to visit and stayed w/us while Daddy was in Myrtle Beach golfing.
