2 Months Old!


2 months ago Connor was born. Time is flying by! 2 months (and 4 days) from now we are moving across the country. I hope time slows down these next two months. :)

Connor is wooing us with his cute smiles and coos. He is a sweetheart and we love him to pieces! He is growing like a weed and I'm anxious to see how big he is at his doctor's appointment on Tuesday. Just today I put him in a 3-6 month outfit (above photo) and was surprised by how well it fit him. He may have started small, but I think this is going to be a big boy.

He's starting to sleep a little better. He takes longer naps during the day and he can go a little longer at night now and usually only wakes up to eat. He goes to bed earlier (I love early bedtimes!) and is sleeping in his crib in the same room as Eli! I was terrified of this at first, but I bought a sound machine (white noise thing) and it is the best investment ever. Eli hasn't ever woken up to him crying since we got that. Hooray! It's fun to go check on our boys in the same room at night before we go to bed. :)

Connor also has a giant outie belly button. The doctor says it's an umbilical hernia and will eventually go away, but it's kind of crazy! Jeremy thinks it's a little gross, but whatever. His hair also continues to be reddish, especially his eyebrows and the sides of his head. The top is half new, light short growth and half really long dark hair, but it usually lays flat so you can't really tell. So basically his hair is a little wild, but it's cute.

Anyway, so that's a little about Connor these days! Enjoy some more pictures from yesterday's bath and today's photo shoot. :)

Blue eyes, red hair? Definitely handsome and different than Eli! :) Both of your boys are adorable!

He's so cute. They sure grow SO fast!
And thank goodness for more sleep. Henri has started to sleep almost through the night (5-6 hours at the time), and I feel like a new person! So, yay for our boys sleeping more. :)

Connor is a cutie! I'm glad that you are enjoying motherhood, even at this sleep-deprived stage. I promise that it won't last long, and then it will just be a distant memory (before total amnesia sets in, which is why we all want more than one baby.) Don't worry about the umbilical hernia; I can tell you from experience that it will eventually go away. If it requires surgical correction (but it usually doesn't), it is very minor.
