Cole and Casey

Casey is two months old! With this milestone we are seeing routines start to emerge (this is a good thing!). We’ve got a ways to go before we can start predicting Casey’s daytime calendar, but at least we’ve past the two hour mark between bottles - hallelujah! Casey is a good eater and he is definitely a growing boy. He sees his pediatrician on Monday so we will see how much he weighs but we think it will be in the 12+ lb range. He is sleeping in his crib and seems quite comfortable there.

Casey takes in all that is in front of him. He will follow you with his eyes and is very engaged. And, if he is following a moving target, he can turn that neck around quite impressively. He is working out those neck muscles and his head pops up more frequently.

Casey also has a smile that can melt you! He’ll often give us a gummy grin and seems to think it especially funny to give Daddy or Mama a poopy diaper. He also has found his voice and will talk us all up. Casey especially lights up when big brother Cole is in the room. Cole enjoys entertaining Casey and Casey lets his brother know he likes it with a huge smile. We hope that this is a sign of things to come - close brothers who love each other.

Casey’s sleep schedule shows promise. Unlike Cole who didn’t seem to want to nap much during the day, Casey will take a couple adequate naps. And, if you put him in the stroller and get out for a good walk, he is content to lazily gaze at the scenery and take a doze there as well. Casey still needs a couple of bottles in the night but we are starting to see longer stretches in-between. With Mom about to return to work, we would love to report that one of the nightly bottles has been eliminated by time the three month birthday rolls around. However he is right on track for a two month old and for that we are glad.

We have to say, our boys make us very happy... busy, tired, on-our-toes and sometimes perplexed too, but all superseded by happy!

We are definitely feeling blessed! Below are some pics of the 2 Month old.
