The little man is already ten weeks! Where does the time go? He isn't so little really...in fact, he is quite a chubby bubby! He had his 2 month check up and weighed in at an astonishing 13 lbs., 12 oz! Holy cow!! Even the nurses were shocked given that he was 7 lbs. 8 oz. as his 2 week appointment (16th percentile) and is now in the 91st percentile! He's 23 1/2 inches long (73rd percentile)! Growing like a Mead!!
Luke started sleeping through the night around 8 weeks. Such a blessing it is to have a full night of sleep. He's been a good sleeper from the beginning, but we're all happy to not be getting up in the night. He is now sleeping about 11-12 hours at night. Usually he goes from 7:30 or 8 at night until about 7:30 in the morning. He also takes four 1 1/2- 2 hour naps during the day as well.
He started smiling a few weeks ago as well and man, is it cute! It just melts your heart when he grins from ear to ear. It's so great to come home from a long day at work and see him smiling.
And another check for the development chart...he is also rolling over from his stomach to his back! We figured he would do this early since he did it twice on the examination table at his 2 week appoinment. Maybe it's just because his cheeks are so heavy! :) Click here to watch him roll. (Apologies for the fussiness, I was trying to get him to roll over but he was really wanting to eat!)
I'm back at work and Justin has just taken a new job so our life is a bit crazy now, but we're adjusting! I even managed to get the kids and myself out the door by 7:30 today to catch a train downtown since Justin was traveling. We thank God everyday that we have flexible jobs and supportive work environments. I'm not sure how we would survive without that flexibility.
Thanks for checking in on us.
Until next time--
