Us!

So I decided to start a blog and share with all of you because I figured it was so much better than Facebook. I can actually give you stories of what we are doing instead of just photos. Plus, I know you guys are very interested in seeing how Hunter is growing and learning new things. So, I'm going to give this a shot and see how it goes. Not sure how much blogging I will do when I return to work but I'll do my best.

Anyway, Hunter is now 2 months old! Holy cow where did the time go! I know...you guys are already telling me to enjoy it while its here because next thing you know, he will be all grown up! I believe you guys! I promise. I took him to his 2 month appt. this morning and found out that he now weighs a whopping 10  lbs. and 2 oz. Remember he was 7 lbs. 5 oz. when he was born, dropped down to  6 lbs. 7 oz. that first week we had him. So he is doing very well. The doctor said he is progressing as normal and things are great. He asked me on average how many hours he sleeps at night and I told him about 5 and he said that was terrific and to keep doing what I'm doing. So I guess Mommy gets a pat on the back for the past 2 months.....pheeeeww! He did have to get 2 shots and an oral vaccine. Which of course, it hurt me more than it hurt him. He cried. Then after the nurse gave it to him, I picked him up and gave him a big kiss and asked him if he was okay and he just stopped crying. So, my boy is a tough cookie. I'm proud of him.

I took about 20 different photos of him yesterday and tried to get him to smile. Why is it when you have him smiling all the time and when you want him to pose that for the camera, it never happens! So anyway, here are the 2 best photos that I got and the 2 worst ones.

He's definitely starting to become a little man and everyday he does something new. Today, he grabbed his feet and just about pulled off his sock. He has a hard time keeping those things on him so its just a matter of time when those things will never be on him. He has started the whole "baby talking" to me with his noises and sometimes he goes on and on for awhile ...so I just let him talk it all out and tell me what's going on. He's such a cutie!
