Grady is TWO months old today!

Little man isn't so little anymore! Grady is two months old today. At his checkup this morning he weighed 13 lbs 12 oz and was 24 inches long. He's almost doubled his birth weight (7 lbs 8 oz)!





- He is on his last package of size 1 diapers... in the next few days he will be trying out size 2.
- He's sleeping and eating so much better. He will go 3-4 hours during the day and occasionally at night up to 5 or so hours.
- He's wearing 0-3 month clothes... lots of 3 month clothes and even bursting out of some outfits.
- He still loves his paci and will now suck on his hands some too.
- Thank goodness baby farts are cute because Grady is a pretty gassy boy.
- The colic moments (I think) are behind us. Although this child has a set of lungs and likes to scream rather than just cry. He definitely isn't patient when it comes to eating.
- He is staying awake so much more and loves to coo, stare at lights, and smile. It's really precious!
- His eyes are definitely lightening up and will probably be a beautiful blue like his father's. I say he has his father's full lips, his eye color, his ears, and his hair line; nonetheless, he still looks a lot like me in pictures. He seems to have my round (fat) face, pointy chin, and full cheeks. Zac and I both see my brother in him especially when he's about to cry. :)
- He sleeps with us in our room for now. I plan on trying to get him to sleep alone this next week and then move him to his crib in the near future. Pray this goes well for us!

As I've said before, being a momma is wonderful! I thank God daily for the healthy little man he's given us.

Much love,
Em
