Last week Parker turned two months old! At his doctor's appointment on the 6th, he weighed in at 11 lbs 11 oz (50%) and 24 inches (90+%!). Chris was able to come at the end of the visit to help with shots since I was probably more of a baby about it than Parker! He did pretty well, only crying until his daddy held him again. There were however lots of cuddles for a fussy baby the next few days.
This little boy is getting more fun every day! He has full on conversations with his dad as he is getting more vocal. He is also getting stronger and can hold his head up when laying on his belly. The smiles also started and he is generally a happy boy unless he is tired and wants to cuddle. Parker is very demanding and loves attention. If I leave him for more than a minute, he starts to fuss. I come back and everything is fine, he just doesn't like to be left alone. This past week he also set a new sleep record of 6 hours! Lately he has been going down early around 7 or 8 and waking up 2 times in the night. However he does stay awake for quite a while and wants to play. We got a rattle and are trying to get him to hold things deliberately, but he is not interested yet. However, he has found his hands and tries to eat his whole fist, getting mad when it doesn't all fit.
This boy is growing up so fast! It feels like we are out if the newborn stage since he does so much. I love my Parker boy!
