2 months old

Another month already?!

Maddox is now 11lbs 1oz putting him in the 10th percentile and 22.5 inches which is the 14th percentile.  He has become quite smiley and coos even more. So far he enjoys being read to. And he absolutely loves the sound of Macen's voice. Macen can soothe him with a song or two. Maddox started rolling from tummy to back a couple of weeks ago. Macen thinks it is the greatest thing ever. I can imagine what he will think when Maddox starts crawling, walking, eating, etc.

As for sleeping, Maddox is keeping me on my toes. Since he has to be waken to take Macen to school and for other things by the end of the day he is overtired. And that equals lots of screaming in the evenings as he tries to settle into sleep. So we are working on that. This week I worked on it so well that he got his days and nights mixed up as far as eating. I am getting up frequently with him throughout the night but he does go right back to sleep. It's that darn miracle blanket, it really does its job :) No more swaddling with the miracle blanket during the day so he will wake more often to eat. Hopefully we'll get back to only getting up once or twice through the night...and soon because this momma is exhausted.

ETA: I'm so sleep deprived I forgot to add a funny story from his dr appt. Maddox got shots and Macen was not happy about it. After she gave him the first shot and Maddox started crying really hard, Macen told her not to do that. She preceded with more shots and Macen went and hid behind the big chair I was holding Maddox in. He did not like Maddox crying that hard especially someone making him cry. Poor boys!
