Two Months

Lewis turned 2 months old on August 19th. He has become such a happy, playful and observant baby! I feel like we already have to be careful about what we say and do since he is always watching us so closely.

Over the past few weeks, he's learned so much. He finally mastered breastfeeding - yay! He's giving us a 6-7 hour block of sleep at night. During the day, he's a great napper - as long as he's being held... Though, he'll sometimes take a short 30-40 minute nap in the swing. He's cooing and smiling at us and at his toys. He has really started to find his voice over the past few days and will have long conversations. Playtime is more fun now that he really notices his toys and tries to bat and grab at them. He's getting stronger. We can't do tummy time with the boppy anymore because he pushes with his feet and tips himself over the front, landing on his face! He really likes to stand now and can bear his weight. For bath time, we've been using a bucket style tub and he likes to stand up, marching and splashing. He seems to tolerate the water okay, but screams like a little banshee when we take him out.

We had his 2 month well child check yesterday and he weighed 13lbs 12 oz and was 25 inches long. That's about 4 1/2 lbs and 4 inches more than when he was born!
