Two Months

Derek is two months today, I feel like we've had him for much longer. We've been learning what he likes and what he doesn't like, it's so mcuh fun getting to know our son!

-He is so much bigger now, everytime people see him the first thing they mention is how much bigger he looks.

- Like I said in the last post, he smiles all the time, but I still can't get enough of it!

- He loves to hear Daddy's voice!

-Derek loves to hear mommy sing primary songs in spanish, even though she's a horrible singer.

-He doesn't like car rides at all! It's a bummer!

-He now looks at the pictures in the book as we read to him.

-He has to have a blanket touching his face in order to sleep, I think that's so cute!!

-I loves to sleep on his sides.



-He started smiling at 5 1/2 weeks and cooing at 7 1/2 weeks.



- He still loves bath time.



- Bad news: he's got a hernia :(



- He's got a birthmark on the side of his nose, though it's fading.



-I hope Cameron and I are doing a good job at parenting. We sure like it!

Just a Quick Post

I need to remember to update this a little more often. New things going on are:

-I started school again this Fall, I'm only taking one class ( I don't like to be away from Derek, but my sweet mom has been watching him for me), the class meets only once a week for 2 1/2 hrs... so not too bad.

- Derek does take the bottle pretty good, but it makes me sad whenever I think of him drinking from a bottle.

-Cameron started school as well. He's taking a CNC class, but it's bummer that his class meets on Saturdays only for 8 hours!

-Derek weighs 10 lbs 12 oz, measures 22 1/2 in now.

- I'm running again, and it feels so good!! I'm signing up for a 5K on Oct 1st, and it's not enough time to train but who cares?

- Derek smiles so much now.

- Derek doesn't sleep through the night but he knows it is night time, for he'll only wake up to change, feed and burp, and goes right back to sleep. He used to wake up for hours.

- It's so hard to keep the house clean these days.

-Derek loves to hear my piano-playing :)

- and we just love being parents!

Smiling Derek

I know this is kinda long, but I really don't know how to edit it.
We just love his smiles!!!
