10 Week Milestones

Now that Tyler is 10 weeks old (wow, I can't believe its been that long since he was born!) I thought I would highlight some of the things that we're excited about:

1) He is sleeping 8-9 hours almost every night. This makes the whole family very happy!!

2) He is smiling all the time and almost laughing! We've figured out that if we stick our tongues out at him he'll do the same, and even try to imitate the sounds we make. Not sure if its a good thing to stick your tongue out at your kids, but it's definitely funny :)

3) He is sleeping without being swaddled. I thought I'd try it out because he loves to suck his thumb and had been getting increasingly frustrated when I would swaddle him and restrict his arms. So, we tried it, and it worked! Now when he wakes up in the morning he usually goes straight for the thumb instead of crying.

2 Month Checkup

We went in for Tyler's two month checkup today. He weighed in at almost 14 pounds and 24 inches exactly, which is 90 percentile for weight and 80 percentile for height.

The doctor said that he is doing great, and was really excited to hear that he's sleeping in his own crib and for 8-9 hours a night! (and we were excited to tell her that!) He had to get 4 shots, poor guy, but he did great. He even got to go visit his Grandma upstairs afterwards.

Not quite 2 months...

...but wearing a "6 month" Ralph Lauren outfit that he got from his Aunt Kelly. Remind me again why I keep worrying that he isn't eating enough?!?
