2 months old

Happy 2 months to the best little boy in the world!  Our sweet Benjamin has had a great past month.  

Here are some highlights:
  • He has finally adjusted to bottles.  As it turns out, it wasn't as much the bottle he didn't like - it was the formula!  We switched from Enfamil to Similac and that has made all the difference!
  • He is eating 4-5 oz. every 2-3 hours and I'm still breastfeeding him in the morning and at the end of the day
  • He's in 3 month clothes
  • He's in size 2 diapers
  • Typically, you can put him in his crib sleepy and he'll put himself to sleep (we're starting this much earlier with this kiddo!)
  • He threw us a couple of curve balls in the past week, but on a typical night, he's still doing 8/8:30 - 3/3:30 a.m. - 6/6:30 a.m.
  • We're still working on nap schedules.  For the most part, he cat naps a lot, but he has started to take 2 longer naps each day
  • He still loves a warm bath
  • He smiles and coos all the time - especially for big sister!
  • He doesn't love tummy time, but he loves his activity mat and kicks up a storm







At Benjamin's 2 month appointment, he got rave reviews, of course.  He's in great health, and up to 12 lbs. 9 oz. (70%), 23" long (52%), head is 16" (66%).  Way to go, buddy!
