2 Months Old

Madden is officially 11 weeks old today but since I can only find time to blog either in the wee hours of the morning or late hours of the night, here is his 2 month update.

We finally made it to the Dr. Jones for his 2-month check-up after my first failed attempt. He weighed in at 11 lbs. 2 1/2 oz. and was 23 1/2 inches long. Well, our little plumpy, is not really that plumpy. He is 50th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for length. I think he just carries it in his cheeks and I don't mean the ones under his diaper.

He is starting to smile, laugh, and coo at us and his personality is really starting to emerge. As one friend described him, he's pretty "chill". He pretty much will just hang out and only cries when he's hungry.


He is doing good at keeping that little head up which is starting to make for much cuter picture taking.


No matter what we do, there is no way to tame that hair. I have to admit I like it all wild, it gives him personality. The other day his Nana wet it to get it to lay down and he didn't even look like the same baby.

We don't have much to complain about with this one (not that we would). He is a sweet, precious little guy. It also doesn't hurt that he sleeps from 9:30 until almost 7:00. He's going to be a good sleeper unlike his big brother who sleeps from 11:00 until 10:00 if he could. With all that sleep that Madden is letting me have, I'm still exhausted, go figure. I think it's the nursing. Like someone said, they're sucking the nutrients right out of you. It's all worth it though, I gotta keep those chubby cheeks fed!
