2 Months Old

Mr. Reed turned 2 months old a week ago, and had his checkup a day or two later.  He slept through a good chunk of the appointment.

 He weighed in at 11 lbs 11.5 ounces, and was 24 inches long.  Still longer than he is heavy, but he's working on that. 
He's still as sweet as they come.  
 


 He loves for us to hold his hands so he can pull up to stand in our laps.  He's so proud and gets all excited, kind of bouncing and grunting at us all happily.

He doesn't get put down often, but when we do for a little tummy time each day, he's started acting like he'd like to roll over.  He hasn't really gotten close yet, but he sure plans on it happening before long.
 
He spends a lot more time awake, watching us, smiling, and chatting sometimes too.  
If I'm walking around, helping the big kids with something, or just distracted by anything really, I'll glance down and catch him gazing up at me with the sweetest look.  Or sometimes he'll get my attention with a little coo and smile when we make eye contact.  
That butt chin, man....

He's another expressive kid.  I crack up at the faces he makes.
One new one is the about to cry face.  Except he does it randomly, and he's not sad at all.  He just throws it in there between smiles.
 
 He's loving his tummy time lately.  Such hard work.

We love him so much.
