Oh my goodness, I have SO much to catch up on on here!! My brother
Caleb got married this last weekend, so we are recuperating from wedding
craziness again and looking forward to some slow summer days ahead. š
In the middle of all the craziness on May 16th, my little Parker Bear turned two months old!! How is this possible?
Parker
is just the sweetest baby! He’s seriously one of the easiest little guys
I’ve ever known – he is so content to hang out and go along with
whatever we are doing. The only time he gets fussy is when he’s tired or
hungry or feels like he needs to be included in something. š
Parker
loves, loves, loves to be held. He’s the happiest when he’s right there
with all of us, whether we’re eating dinner or playing a game or
grocery shopping or whatever. He loves to be held facing out too, so he
can see everything going on. And with a big brother like Nathan, there
is always a lot to see. š
He’s
eating every 3 hours during the day now and has been going about 6-8
hours at night before he wakes up to nurse and then goes back to sleep
for another 3 or so hours. He’s become SUCH a good sleeper! I’m so
thankful!
He
is SO smiley – oh my goodness. This boy starts smiling as soon as he
wakes up and doesn’t stop smiling until he goes to sleep. He is such a
happy boy – LOVE those sweet cheeks!! He has had quite the second month
too – we had Uncle Bryant and Aunt Nicole’s wedding, Easter, his first
zoo trip, lots and lots of walks, a bout with thrush and Mother’s Day
all crammed into that one month!!
He has his two month
appointment tomorrow morning, so I’m excited to hear his stats. When I
weighed him on our not-so-reliable bathroom scale, it had him at 13
pounds. GRACIOUS. Big boy!! It totally validated my tired arms at the
end of the day. š I wouldn’t trade it for anything!!
And for some more fun comparison, here’s the Nater Tot and the Parker Bear both at two months old:
In
all of them, Nathan is on the left and Parker is on the right. Is it
possible to be looking more AND less similar to each other?? š
