2 months old

You got your shots today-you were a trooper. You did the silent scream for about 5 seconds, then let out a huge wail that lasted 30 seconds. You then calmed down really quickly.

You weigh 10 pounds, 6 ounces. You grew an inch and now are 21 inches long. 

You started to smile! It's adorable. You have the cutest little smirk. You track me, your daddy and Daniel with your eyes and turn your head to look at us when we talk. 

You are getting into a sleeping routine. You wake around 6AM, stay up until 8 when we typically leave the house for the day. You nap for 2 hours or so while we are out and about. You'll be up for a good part of the mid day, taking a 45 minute catnap. You fall back asleep for a long nap around 4pm and you like to wake up just as I'm sitting down for dinner. You and your big brother read a book with me before bedtime then I'll feed you a bottle and you'll go to sleep. 

I'll wake you up at 10 or 10:30 for a bottle. You'll then sleep to 3AM. After another bottle, you'll sleep again until 6 or so. 

You are taking 4 ounce bottles of formula throughout the day. 

You went swimming for the first time this month. We turned down the temperature in the hot tub a few days ago this month. You loved it. Then, we drove down to Mt. Princeton hot springs with some friends and went into the pool. It was a great day for everyone. 

Karsten, we love you so much!
