2 Months Old!!!!

How quickly time flies..... My little man turns the big "2" today. We have had a rough two month stretch. He has had tummy problems from the git go that makes him rather fussy. Our last time at the doctor the home remedy of peppermint tea was discovered. He has been a totally different baby since then. He is still a grunter. He has even rubbed off on his older cousin because now Hadleigh is doing it. Kind of funny but my sister is not so trilled about it. I have had a lot of time to get use to being a mommy and it is such an honor and a great feeling. I can see what all the fuss was about. Having your own is just AMAZING! I finally told myself I had to stop and enjoy him because he is growing so fast. I am so busy with juggling work, taking care of all house chores and of course trying to play with the older two boys that I was not taking the time to just hold him and look at him for my own enjoyment. I have been doing that a lot more and he just seems to be a little bit happier!

He has been smiling like crazy lately. He doesn't exactly do it on cue but seems to be happy.

I have good nights and bad nights with him. Right when I think he is sleeping great he has another bad night but for the most part is getting 4 or 5 hour stretches. He has started to cooo and get out some type of sounds. He is giving me much bigger burps which I think is helping his stomach issues. Only problem these days is he is such a LIGHT sleeper. Not a good combination when I have three other boys who slam doors, talk loud and just plain forget there is a little one around.

Finally, the only sadness that I have today on his two month bday is that my sis has gone back to work. UGH!!! :( He are super close and have seem to gotten extremely close this summer. ( I think it has to do with me becoming a mommy!) We talk all the time and I absolutely adore her kiddos. I won't get to see all of them as much now. Hopefully we can still find some time in our busy schedules.
