mr. miles has reached 8 weeks! i am starting to see more and more every day why people say this baby thing is so much fun. our little guy is doing great. mom and dad are doing pretty good too. at two months, miles weighs just under 12 pounds and is getting bigger by the minute! he is obsessed with the baby bjorn bouncy seat. for those of you who are pregnant, go ahead and order yourself one now. my cousin angela had given one to my mom and when miles was in huntington last weekend, he chilled in that thing for hours. needless to say, one should arrive on my porch next week. he also loves being held, loves for his dad to make him smile making stupid faces, loves warm baths and lotion massages, loves grunting from 4-5 a.m. and loves going to miss linda's house. linda is watching him tuesdays and thursdays and she is the BEST!!! couldn't ask for a better setup for childcare. eventually we'll put him in real daycare but for now this is great. he gets to go to chappies with her (the neighborhood coffee shop), the mall and maddi's school.
as far as the sleep situation goes, we put him down around 10:30-11 and he sleeps until around 2:30 or 3, i get up and feed him, put him back down and he sleeps until 5:30 or 6 when ben gets up to feed him, with some grunting in between. the schedule is working for us. i don't mind the middle of the night feeding and ben likes the early morning feeding because saved by the bell is on from 5-6 a.m.
other than that we have been having so much fun with him. it is getting easier to make him smile and it is easier to figure out what he is wanting if he is fussy. tonight we are venturing to jonathan and stacie's to watch the basketball games. there will be so many babies there we will try to snap a pic of all of the cuteness. until next time, here are a few more pics of our sweet boy.
p.s. we really are working on his announcements. they should be out hopefully this week!
