Always With Me

I love that when I close my eyes to go to sleep, I see funny and cute pictures of our baby boy. I had this one on my mind last night:

...and when I open my eyes, I see him sleeping peacefully next to me. It's the best.

We discovered a new game this morning that drew out some of his first laughs! We were at the mirror, looking at each other, when I started to go up and down with him (emphasizing the "up" and "down"), and he loved it! He was all smiles and in the beginning stages of laughing! So cute!

Turning 2 Months

Baby XA got his first round of vaccinations today! It's a big day for me because this means Mommy can start bringing Baby out, like to the park! Yay! :)

Baby was soOOOooo brave. I knew he would be fine with the shots, but I was still impressed and proud afterward! He received 3 shots (and an oral dosage), and he wailed a cry of pain at the peak of a long cry and then cried a regular cry for about half a minute to a minute before he settled down. We were so impressed with how well he took the shots! Much braver than his Mommy and Daddy!

Now, he's got a cute Garfield band-aid on one leg and a Sesame street band-aid on the other.
He has definitely put on weight. He's now at the 50th percentile for weight (up from 25th), 25th for length and head circumference (up from 10th).


He is so much fun. :) Do I really have to go back to work next month? :(

7 Weeks

Look at that smile! :)
