Tommy's favorite things!

Tommy is doing really well. We went to the doctor for his 8 week appointment last week and he is in the 90th percentile for height and weight....shocker, right?! Drumroll please...he weighed in at 13 pounds 15 ounces. He has almost doubled his birth weight and he is only 2 months old! He has cut out one feeding at night so maybe that will slow down the weight gain. He was so brave through his shots, only cried for about 15 seconds but it was a rough weekend. By Sunday he was back to his sweet self after 2 very long nights!

I have been doing too much reading which has been stressing me out more than helping, so Ryan finally took my books away from me last weekend. We still use one, and only one, to help us, but we are trying to rely more on our parental instincts since all the books seem to contradict eachother. There is just too much darn information out there!

Now Tommy has definitely taken an interest in the world around him. As you can see below, he loves his swing, not because it is a swing, but because of the birds and the mirror above it. He also loves to kick on his mat and look all around. He is getting really strong and is doing great holding his head up. He rolled over from his belly to his back today...you can kind of see how that happened below. He is fascinated with mirrors and loves to look at himself. He has also discovered his tongue and loves to stick it out. I tried to capture that, along with his chubby arm rolls in the pic below.

Overall, we are doing well. Still lots of challenges to figure out, but we are getting a little more sleep and he is more fun every day. Enjoy the pics and we'll keep you posted!!
