Aiden will be 11 weeks on Tuesday, approaching the three month mark, and is as cute as ever. Here are some recent pics:
Look at my big boy sitting up. Yes, Daddy positioned him perfectly so he wouldn't tip over. =)
Mommy's milk does Aiden good!
Visiting the Cherry Blossoms! Thank goodness Vic has long arms.
On one of our first walks of the Spring season at Centennial Park.
Aiden received his first round of vaccinations at his 2 month well-baby checkup and although he did scream bloody murder for a second, he was a trooper. Poor thing.. 4 shots and an oral vaccine all at once! That's enough to make anyone cranky! Aiden weighed in at 10 lbs 0.2 ounces and 22.75 inches. He had a little cold awhile back with some lingering congestion, but I'm happy to say (and hear) that it is much better. Hearing your little baby squeak like a pigeon can be unsettling.
It's amazing how much babies change day to day. I was looking back at some of his older pictures and was surprised at exactly how different he looks. He's definitely filling out, look at those cheeks, and is getting more and more interested in his environment.
Aiden is definitely morning person, just like his mommy. We start our day at around 7am with a morning feed and Aiden is all smiles. Sometimes it takes awhile to down that bottle because he's smiling and cooing so much! He's much more responsive, cooing and babbling to conversation. He especially enjoys talking to Mommy about the plans for the day... or he's just mesmerized by the ceiling fan. =)
Nighttime is getting better and better. We put him down around 8pm after a bottle and he sleeps until around midnight. He eats again and (on a good night) sleeps until around 4am. Then he's up again for another feed and back to bed until around 7am when we start our day. I like the predictability of his schedule and as much as I try to change it up to get him to sleep longer, he always wakes up at those exact intervals. Well, at least it makes bottle prep easier! I automatically wake up about 15-20 minutes before him so I can minimize the crying. =)
We're on a 3 hour schedule during the day (thanks to the 'Baby Whisperer'). So it's feed, play, nap and repeat. =)
Although I still have some time before I go back to work, it makes me so sad to think about leaving him. What if I miss something!!??
More to come!
