2 Months!

Here I am, an entire week late posting their 2 month update.  I can't do that going forward!

Sweet babies.  This past month has FLOWN by.  I would do anything to get time to slow down.  I absolutely cherish every single moment at home with you both.  Sure, some moments are stressful when you are both crying and need me (or a bottle, rather), but I wouldn't trade it for anything!




At 2 months, here is what is going on:

Remi:
  • You weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces at your 2 month appointment
  • You were 19 inches long
  • You are in the 25th percentile for weight, but 5th for height (clearly that comes from me, not your daddy)
  • You are taking 100 ml at each feeding
  • You are sleeping anywhere from 5.5 - 7.5 hours at night (love this!!)
  • You are in newborn size diapers and clothes
  • You have started taking reflux medicine and you LOVE it!  You do such a great job!
You have started focusing on us and making eye contact when we talk to you.  You still aren't smiling a ton, but that's ok!  

You are so serious and so independent!  You crack us up when we try to snuggle with you, as you grunt and wave your arms most of the time, clearly telling us you don't want that!  So those rare moments when you do want to snuggle, we eat it up (and worry you don't feel good).  

When we put you down at night, most of the time, you do excellent, but occasionally, we get to experience your "squawk" as your daddy and I call it. 

You had your two month vaccines and did really well.  You only cried for a very short period.  However; that night, you could tell you definitely did not feel the best.  I took all the snuggles I could get then!

  • You weighted 8 pounds 15.5 ounces at your 2 month appointment
  • You were 20 inches long
  • You are in the 50th percentile for weight and 25th for height
  • You are taking 110 ml at each feeding
  • You are sleeping anywhere from 5.5 - 7.5 hours at night, and in fact, we wonder how long you'd sleep if we didn't wake you after your sister finishes eating (most nights)
  • You are in newborn size diapers and clothes, although I don't think it will be long before you move up on clothes!
  • You absolutely love being in just your diaper.  You crack us up!  
You focus on us all the time.  You have started trying to talk to us and it is adorable!  When we talk to you, you move your mouth and I can tell you are trying so hard to make sounds, it is so sweet.  

You have the sweetest little snore right now.  It is adorable (and helps mom and dad when we bend down at night to listen to you and your sister).  

You also did so well getting your two month vaccines.  You felt a little better that night than Sissy did, but the next day, you slept a lot more than usual, and didn't eat as much as you typically do either.  

Kanon & Remington -

We just love you so much!  Grammie comes down once a week and absolutely adores spending time with you.  You both love her so much and instantly calm down when you see her if you are being fussy when she gets here.  She's already a pro at taking care of two babies at once!





You got to meet the amazing doctor that took care of the three of us while you were in me.  The very first thing he said when he saw Remington was how she looks just like her daddy!  And then went on to say it wasn't even fair because I carried you the whole time.  Haha!  I agree!  :)    




You also got to go visit your brother and sister's headstone over Memorial Day weekend.  Your daddy and I look forward to telling you all about them.  




We love you both so much and you make us so happy.
