"I Think That Possibly Maybe I'm Falling For You"

Gabe,

Happy 2 month birthday! Look at how big you're getting! So many changes this last month...here's what you've been up to...

• You recognize me and Daddy now and you smile when you see us...which of course we love!


• You love your bears on your pack and play and swing mobiles. You just smile and smile at them as they dance around.


• You coo and make the most adorable noises.


• You actually like to take a bath now. You are so mellow after!


• You're not sleeping through the night yet but usually get up just once.


• You eat about 5-6 ounces every 3-4 hours except at night you can go up to 7 hours between feedings.
• Your new favorite toys are your hands...you just love sucking on them!

A typical day for you starts off around 7 AM- depending on when you last ate I may feed you or wait a bit. Daddy heads off to work around 8:30 and you usually take a nap shortly thereafter. You might nap anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half. Then we do the wake-up, feed, change, play, sleep routine for the rest of the day. Daddy gets home around 6:30. We usually give you a bath and massage you a bit around 9...this is our favorite time of the day with you. You're so calm and relaxed after your bath. We all three sit on Mommy and Daddy's bed after and talk and play. Then Mommy swaddles you and Daddy puts you to sleep around 10 or 11 PM. Lately you've been waking up only once usually around 3:30 AM. Then we do it all over again!

You pretty much still have the same nicknames you had a month ago although Daddy called you Captain the other day...not sure where that came from. Oh tomorrow you have your 2 month checkup. Mommy is definitely nervous about your shots but so excited to see how much you weigh and how tall you are. I'm guessing 13 lbs 3 oz and 24 and 1/2 inches.

This next month is going to be quite the adventure. Mommy heads back to work in three weeks and you'll be spending your days with a sitter. Mommy knows she's going to miss you terribly while she's at work.

Mommy and Daddy love you bunches sweet boy and can't wait to see what this next month brings!
