2 Months Old
Two months... wow. We can say that the second month went a lot faster than the first. This fact can most likely be attributed to the fact that Cole is now on a bit more of a schedule... key phrase being "a bit". Cole has been growing and bulking up this past month with his bottles becoming larger and larger. Tomorrow Cole will be weighed and measured at his Dr appointment and we will see just how much mass he has put on. The over/under is 11 1/2 lbs.
Cole is very observant and likes watching what is going on around him. He still loves his ceiling fans which can be quite a calming tool when he is unhappy. His neck muscles continue to develop as he now often lifts his head up while partaking in "tummy time".
Cole is now beginning to "talk" to us and let us know just what he is thinking. More often than not he greets us with a grin and starts to "coo" when we enter his room in the morning. The smile on a baby is one of the coolest thing that exists.
While Cole rarely naps during the day (which keeps his Mom on her toes) he has hit a bit of a stride when it comes to sleeping at night. He often goes down between 6-7pm and now sleeps until 2-3am when he gets a bottle and goes back down until around 6am. This has been a welcome change and allows Mom and Dad to get a few extra winks at the night time... we only hope this continues :)
Below is a glimpse at how Cole has grown over the past few months.
