2 months old!!

It's official...my little man isn't so little anymore! Josh was 2 months old on September 4th. It's hard to believe. The time has flown by! I took him to the doctor yesterday for his 2 month check-up. He was 12 pounds 5 ounces and 25 inches long (95th percentile!). I don't know where all this height is coming from (definitely not me or Andrew), but the doctor says he is probably just doing all his growing early. The doctor was impressed with how strong Josh is and told us he would be surprised if Josh wasn't at least pulling up on things by 9 months. I guess I better start thinking about baby proofing the house! Josh had to get 2 shots. He whimpered through them...it was pitiful, but we survived it!

In addition to getting bigger, here are other things my little man has been up to this past month:

• He met my best friend, Emily and his best bud, Ben!
• He met his great-grandmomma (this pic is of 4 generations!).
• smiling (He smiles ALL the time, especially when Andrew or I talk to him. I just love this big gummy grin!)
  


• He loves to stand up. He shoots his legs out and insists that we let him stand on our legs. He is strong and can hold up his head and support his weight!
• We are sleeping a little bit better these days (not much better, but we are greatful for whatever we can get!) He has started sleeping 6 hour stretches every once and a while. Hopefully that will become more regular. While that might not sound too impressive, he had been enjoying getting up to eat every 3 hours at night before this!
• Josh loves to play. He smiles and talks to the butterflies on his play mat! He has started grasping rattles and enjoys looking at colorful books. He also loves to kick in his bouncy seat.
• He gets cuter and cuter every day and we love him more than we ever thought possible!
