Two Months Old!!

Nathan on August 4th, first by himself








And he promptly spit up within five minutes of being in this outfit, though it didn't seem to phase him




Then Noelle decided she needed to be a part of the photos.  This first one would have been great if daddy had brushed Noelle's hair after he dressed her...


And Noelle insisted that I take some pictures of Cookie Monster





And the Brady had to be a part of the action, of course






So here's what's up with Nathan... he weighs 10 pounds 6.5 oz and is 23 1/4 inches long.

He eats every 2 or so hours during the day, occasionally taking a bottle like a champ. He goes to bed for the night around 7:30 and goes 6-7 hours without eating, then eats every 2 or 3 hours after that.  He wakes up twice during the night - after the second wake-up he has a hard time sleeping in his crib so he comes into our room and bed around 4 or 5 am.  We're hoping to end that over the next month.  He naps a lot, but has a hard time napping alone... He doesn't really use the pacifier, either, and instead insists I nurse him to sleep for naps.  Only then will he let me give him a pacifier.. also something we're working on.

He loves his bouncer, thinks the playmat is ok, loves bath time now and still pretty much hates his carseat (we're three for three with that - it still boggles my mind that some people put their children in a carseat to help them sleep).

He also does a good job hanging by himself when he's awake.  He usually only cries if he's hungry or tired or in his carseat. 

He definitely has a clear preference for mommy, mostly because I'm the source of his food, but daddy, Brady and Noelle get smiles and love, too.
