Finally Got It!
Drew is really starting to smile big time now, but every
time we bring out the daddy's enormous, black camera he stops. I got this one
the other morning. Sorry, he isn't exactly centered, but I had to shoot from
the side of the camera to get him to smile. Too sweet!!!
An All Around Average Guy
Today was Drew's 2 month check-up.
Hannah had to go with me b/c the daddy had an appointment. He did however show
up right before the doctor came in and managed to exit right before the shots
came. Said he couldn't stand to watch the little man cry like that...
Drew is doing very well. He is
starting to gain some head control. He should as much as he HATES to be put
down. Holding him straight up facing out is his favorite pose right now.
He is starting to get a more regular
night pattern and we are finally heading to every 3-4 hours to eat instead of
every 2. For that Mommy is really glad!
He weighs 11 pounds 5 ounces and was
22 3/4" long. His head was 39 around which puts him exactly 50% for
everything! Just average! Hannah was always in the 5-10% for weight and more
average for height so this is definitely a change. I could tell he was
heavier, but wasn't sure by how much.
He is cooing more often now
especially in the morning and is starting to be entertained by watching Hannah
play. She LOVES holding him and talking to him. Here they are the night we
brought him home from the hospital and the other one was taken yesterday. It
is amazing how much he has changed in 2 months.
With any luck we won't have to visit Dr. Shori again until
August. Poor guy has seen the doctor too many times in his 2 months. Here is
to a healthy 2 months!
Visiting Friends and Family
While in Stroud we made sure that all the Grandparents got
plenty of hold time with Andrew. We drove up to Tulsa, to visit Jerry and Jill
and see their new baby girl Lainey. I think Drew was surprised at how small
Lainey was. He's usually not the biggest kid in the room. Peyton got
her old time in with Andrew too.
Revisiting Summer Camp
We went home to visit "Big Bill" at summer camp.
It was Hannah & Andrew's first visit to one of my favorite summer
time destinations. But somehow, everything seemed a bit smaller. They have
made a lot of useful renovations, but most everything was still where it used
to be. I took Hannah to the boat pond for her first boat ride. They have upgraded
their canoes since I was there last and also added some kayaks to their armada.
