Reed is 2 months old!

Reed, you are two months old! My how time is flying! I cannot believe that our time together is going so fast. The first few weeks I was going a little stir crazy from being home so much, but I’ve grown to love it and will be so sad to go back to work in just a few weeks. I’ll miss our time together but am so thankful for the time we are getting now.

You are a big boy! We went to the doctor today and you weigh 12 pounds 13 ounces. You are 23 inches long. And he said you are just perfect! We also had to get your shorts. :( Mommy doesn’t like her little guy to be hurting – I’ve never seen you that upset! You were a trooper though!

You are starting to get more animated. You smile and laugh at us and it’s so fun to see you react to us in that way. You’ve started looking around for me when you hear me talking but can’t see me. You’ve also had two amazing nights of sleep the past two nights and that’s all I want to say because I’m sure that talking about it will jinx it! You have started holding onto things with your hands. You have also started sucking your thumb! Both your daddy and I have caught you trying to get it in your mouth and you succeeded once while I was holding you!

 

You eat a 5 ounce bottle of milk and formula every 4 hours. That has been a little messed up recently though to you sleeping longer. I’m sure we’ll get it straightened out in the next few days. You are wearing 0-3 month clothes and are also wearing Size 1 diapers.

You still have the prettiest, biggest blue eyes and you are a heart stopper!

This month, you celebrated your first Thanksgiving and made your first trip to daddy’s hometown to visit your grandparents and aunt. You met Santa Claus this month, and unlike your sister, you did not cry! :)

Our family is so blessed to have you be a part of it Reed! You have grown and changed so much this month and I can’t wait to see what the next month brings for us! Love you little man!
