Smiling is my favorite!!

AJ just got a new toy--an exersaucer! He does a great job of holding his head up while he's in it, but he's still a little small. In a few weeks, it's going to be his favorite toy!





































As for loving toys, he sure does love his bouncer!! Here is a little video I took the other day:




Adam has been reading to AJ every night and he really enjoys looking at the pictures!

Dreaming...



AJ has been doing a lot of dreaming lately while he sleeps! It's the cutest thing in the world--hopefully he's not dreaming of anything too scary :) I apologize for the shaking of the camera, my little guy was making me laugh!!

Strong Baby!

AJ had his two month appointment on Wednesday morning. He weighs 14.8 lbs (95th percentile) and he is 23.5 in long (60th percentile.) Our little guy is short and stocky!!

While we were waiting for Dr. Pierron to come in, AJ was lying on his tummy. When she arrived, he was holding his head way up high for her, then he proceeded to pick his arms and legs up off the table and balance on his belly!! It was the funniest thing I'd ever seen him do! (Of course, I didn't have my camera to take a picture.) The Dr. was really surprised by this and said that she had never seen a baby under 6 months do that, he's so strong!!! Everything went really well with his appointment, he's a very healthy boy! Next up, his 2 month shots, which may be worse for mom than him.

He has found his hand, which he sticks in his mouth constantly. There have been a few instances where he's been sucking his thumb. He's also been playing a lot on his exercise mat, mainly just staring at the colors and the singing star. I still can't believe he is 2 months old already! He's growing so quickly.
