Two Months

This second month has flown by. I am sad to say my maternity leave is coming to an end this week. We have decided to pass on daycare and have hired a really sweet girl named Michelle to come to the house and nanny for us. Hopefully this will make the transition a little easier for me. I am not worried at all about Wills! 

This last month has been so fun. Our little guy is getting a personality. He smiles and chats quite a bit. He also has very manly burps. I swear you would think they were coming from a grown man! He has also become really good at blowing bubbles. Cute, but messy. Being outside is one of his favorite things, he loves going on walks or just laying on a blanket in the shade.

Two Month Stats:

Weight: 11 lbs, 6 oz (50th percentile)

Length: 23 1/2 inches (75th percentile)

Clothing Size: Newborns are officially gone. We are now in the 0-3 months, some fit great and some are still a little loose

Nicknames: Buddy, Buster, Snorty, Mr. Bubbles 

Must haves: Still using the moby wrap like crazy as well as the miracle swaddle blanket

Milestones:
August 25 First smile
August 29 Started cooing
September 2 First trip to Arkansas
September 3 First time at a restaurant
September 4 First time at church
September 10 First Birthday party (For cousin Ethan)
September 20 First yoga class

Play Date at Starbucks

We met Blaine, Stella, and their mommies today at Starbucks. Aunt Janice came too. She was nice enough to get some photos of Wills with his friends.

   

 

We had a great time today hanging out with our friends. I am looking forward to the day they actually start interacting with one another!

Wills' Weekly Photos

So instead of doing a full post every week just for pictures, there is now a page in the side bar. I will update it every week, it just won't show up on the main home page. Be sure to click over there regularly to see how fast our little guy is growing! Week 6 is up now.

Sip and See

This weekend we made our way to Arkansas for the first time since Wills arrived. He did great in the car and adjusted to all the big changes easily.

On Saturday, my sister threw Wills a party so that all our Arkansas friends and family could come out and meet him.

We had such a great time catching up with everyone. Thanks so much to Aunt Sara for throwing the party for us. It was amazing!
