; 2 Months ;

Colton actually celebrated his 2 month birthday on the 3rd but didn't go to the doctor until this past Monday so I wanted to wait for his stats to actually post.........plus I have no time to myself these days & blogging is the last thing on my list of things to do so needless to say this is late!

First of all he was a trooper when he got all 3 of his shots; he cried for maybe a second or 2 & then he was done........that probably has a lot to do with the fact that he is a chunker & had lots of legs fat to absorb the pain.

Weight: 13.2 pounds (75%)

Height: 23.5 (50%)

Head: 15 3/4 (50%)

Colton laughs, smiles, & acts like he is trying to talk all the time.  He is a horrible napper (unless he is in his car seat & in the car then he is out in about 2 seconds flat) & I am desperately trying to remedy that each & every day but it isn't an easy task.  He is sleeping about 8 hours straight at night so I guess I can't complain too much about the napping things but I'm going too anyway.  He has the worst dry skin & the poor boy is lubed up 2-3 times a day & even doing that he (his face especially) is flaking about an hour later.  He loves bath time.  He is such a laid back little guy & he melts our hearts with his gummy grin!

His head size is perfectly normal but the shape isn't.  Although the doctor said that it will most likely work itself out I am worried that it won't.  Colton's head is pretty flat on one side & I try to position him so that he is not putting pressure on the flat side he always tends to return to that position no matter what I do.  I know he is only 2 months old & he is going to be moving & sitting up so much more these next few months but a mother worries no matter what any doctor says I think.  He would have to wear a helmet to correct it & it really isn't a big deal I would just rather him not have to!

He's already in size 2 diapers & 3 month clothes.  He kicks & moves his arms like his brother used to so I am sure that he is going to be on the go from the time he figures out that he can move.  He eats 6 ozs. of Similac Soy formula every 3-4 hours & believe me NEVER misses a meal!!  He already has such an amazingly contagious happy personality & I look forward to all the changes & things he is going to be doing as he grows up.  We are blessed with not just one but two special little boys & couldn't have imagined a life so perfect!!

2 Months Old

Reminiscing & looking at all of these old photos is making me tear up........he wasn't really that little was he???  At two months old he was coming to work with me, colicky every night, smiling like crazy, hated to be on his belly, had his 1st Halloween & helped pass out candy & Lance & I love him so much!!
