2 Months Old

Noah is 2 months old!  I can hardly believe it.  He is a happy baby, our little chunky monkey.  He has a couple new tricks.  He sleeps through the night now (from 10pm-4am).  Yea!  I am so excited about this!  He continues to smile big gummy grins.  He seems patient with his brother.  What I mean by that is that he doesn't fuss and cry when Joshua gives him a big shove in the baby swing or when Joshua says "Baby Noah's eyes" as he pokes him in the eye.  I am working hard with Joshua not to poke Noah in the eye or mouth or ear, but the concept hasn't stuck yet.  He is either very happy or very fussy - not much of a gray area.  He loves to be held.  Noah does not mind tummy time.  He's really good at holding his head up and can even pull his chest up some when laying on his tummy.  He is a strong baby.  He is really filling out his 3 month clothes and comfortably fits into 3-6 month clothes.  Daddy says he looks like the Michelin baby and all we need for a Halloween costume is a tire.  He's coos and "talks" these days.  His face is expressive when you "talk" back to him.  He gets so excited, his legs start pumping and he waves his arms.
Noah recently had his 2 month checkup so here are his stats:
Weight: 14lbs 6oz - 95%
Length:  26in - 99%
HC:  16in - 60%
That's a healthy boy!  He got 5 immunizations in the form of 1 oral and 3 shots.  He did really well despite a slow nurse.  Noah still does not like pacis so mommy just loved on him and he calmed down.  You are such a handsome little boy!  We love you so much and are excited to watch you grow!


Side note: I couldn't post this without mentioning Joshua's goofy behavior during the appointment.  He was wearing a jack-o-lantern shirt and was given a Halloween sticker right off the bat.  When asked what he was going to be for Halloween he said "Cebu Bumblebee." Very sweet! Anyway while I was undressing Noah, Joshua took off his shoes.  A nurse saw this and put them back on for them, then the next time I looked down he was sitting on the floor with his socks and shoes off.  Eww!  Then when they left to get the vaccines Joshua pulled his shirt up and started taking off his pants.  "Joshua, what are you doing?" "I take it off."  "No, we don't take it off.  Please stay dressed!" My silly little nudist.  What am I going to do with you?
