Hello

New little man and old little man

CJ update

Where has 8 and a half weeks gone? Hard to believe CJ is 2 months old. The first couple weeks were a breeze and then he entered the "fussy times". The little man gave us a tough go of it during weeks 5-7, but has since seemed to settle down a bit. The breastfeeding is going more smoothly; he is less gassy after feedings and seems much happier and calmer. His eating and sleeping has developed into a fairly predictable pattern! We are patiently awaiting the next milestone - sleeping through the night!! He's starting to give more little smiles recently and making eye contact. It's exciting to finally start to see his little personality emerging. More good times are yet to come...

My handsome boys

Forts are fun!!

Pumpkin carvin'

We had grandiose plans of doing some trick or treating with Levi this year, but when we tried to dress him in his Yoda Halloween outfit he found it interesting for all of about 1 minute and then was done and back to what he loves best - pushing his truck around the house. Oh well. We had his attention long enough to carve a Jack o Lantern!

Big Hands

Can I have the car keys, please?

conversation

Levi is saying more and more words everyday. His favorite for awhile has been "yeah". The following was a great exchange:

Jen: "Levi, do you want some chicken for dinner?"
Levi: "Yeah"
Jen: "Do you want some green beans?"
Levi: "Yeah"
Mike: "Do you want a big pile of poop?"
Levi: "Yeah"

CJ 2 week checkup

CJ had his 2 week checkup with Dr. Perry. Here's his stats:
Weight - 9 pounds 1.5 ounces (55%)
Height - 21.5 inches (75%)
Head - 14 3/8 inches (30%)
CJ went from 7 pounds 7 ounces a few days after birth to 9 pounds 1.5 ounces ten days later. That's about 1.5 pounds in 10 days! Wow! What a good eater!
All in all, CJ is a very good baby - not too fussy; just occasional bouts of gas/indigestion. He's sleeping great at night for the most part as well, usually having at least one good stretch from around midnight until 4 am. Mommy feels like she's getting enough sleep to function!
Levi has been exhibiting a bit of jealous behavior; he seems to notice (and not be very happy about) mommy and daddy's divided attention now. In general, though, he's still great and is very sweet with his little brother.

Week #1 for the brothers...

Another smooch
