Baby Owen 2 month update

Holy cow he's 2 months already? Sure is going fast. He's been doing better since being on reflux medication. I have reintroduced dairy and can say that maybe he is a little more gassy but not much difference so I'm not completely cutting it out but trying to limit quantity.

Owen really likes his play mat. He is just starting to swat at his toys. He listens intently when we read books. He is not a fan of the car seat. Still takes the pacifier but not as often. He really likes chewing his hands. When he is resting in a good mood he kicks his feet a ton. It's pretty adorable. 

Owen is beginning to chatter more often and I love baby talk. He will hold my finger when falling asleep and nursing. He loves being held and wakes most times when put down. We're working on that though. 

I'll have his height and weight on Wednesday.

2 Months old

Can you believe it? This little boy have been here for 2 whole months now. I can't say its gone by fast because it really does feel like that long. He is a great little boy and sleeps great at night, nurses great, and is so freaking cute. We do struggle with a daytime routine and its hit or miss if I can get him down for a nap. He is growing so fast but I love watching his changes. I don't miss his "newborn-ness" as much as I thought I would, Guess its just because I am so in love with watching him grow.

What he loves:
His monkeys, he still LOVES his monkeys from his mobile

Bath time - he enjoyed his bath more, but not in the tub alone, that freaks him out.

The sound Ah

The word Cheeky

People - he loves seeing new people

Brahms Lullaby - always soothes him

Stroller Rides

His bumbo chair - he loves sitting up




His yellow bright starts dog



What he hates:
The swig - 95% of the time

Being put down for naps

Having a fully loaded poopy diaper (normal poops don't bother him)

Going to sleep


He is getting SO smiley lately and even at night when he is tired and cranky, I can usually rouse a smile or two out of him.

































He is also holding his head up more these days, but he doesn't use his arms much at all. All with time.
