Sayer - 2 Month Update

Dear Sayer Doodle Boppa Noodle,

Upon seeing you, most people say,

"Oh!  He's so cute!"  This is followed by,

"What is he, like 5 or 6 months?"

Try barely 2.  Yeah.  I think that says it all.  From your 2 week mark to your 2 month mark, you gained 6 pounds and 4 inches.  It's no wonder you sleep a lot.  That kind of growing has to be exhausting.  Your grand total as of Friday is 15 pounds, 11 oz, and 25 inches long.  (For the record, your head is completely proportional to the rest of you.  That is to say, it's large).

Other than your chubbalubb factor, (which, in case you are wondering, I LOVE), you are doing things right on par with the average two month old.  Smiling at people, becoming best friends with the ceiling fan, sleeping sporadically, eating like a champ (as if there were any doubts there), and snuggling a lot.

Your sleep patterns aren't quite as good as Bean's were but aren't as bad as C's were.  So we're surviving.  It's kind of tough for you to get a decent nap unless you're in a sling, mainly because your sisters do not understand the meaning of "quiet" for any great length of time.  A harbinger of things to come?  Probably.  You'll never get a word in edgewise with those two... better get used to that now.

 (On a side note... I'm SO SORRY that I keep calling you C.  Poor kid, between that and the pink pacifier that I sometimes have to use, you're going to end up with an identity complex).

All in all, you're a perfectly plump, fantastically sweet little dude and I can't imagine what it was like before you were here.

Love always,

Mama
