MERRY CHRISTMAS

Bottle Drama

Let's Go PATS

The saga goes on. The little guy is still not a big fan of the bottle. But we are making progress he will now take it without screaming (most of the time) He takes anywhere from 1-3 oz. before he has had enough. I am going back to work on Dec 31st so we will see how he does at daycare. The first week it is only half days. He is such a cutie I am going to be lost without him.
He is sleeping a little better. He nods off during the day but still for only 20-30 minutes.
He now weighs 12 lbs 9 oz. and is growing like a weed. We have packed away all his 0-3 clothes (maybe for the next one) and he is now in his 3-6. He loves his hands and you rarely find him without them in his mouth.

These are two pictures from the many times we tried to take a picture for his Christmas card.

Grumpy Baby

Griffin went for his 2 month check up last Tuesday. He now weighs 11 lbs 8 oz and is 22 inches long. His head has also grown 2 inches, no surprise there! He had to get 4 shots and was not a happy camper. He also had a touch of the stomach bug last week. It was a rough week for our little guy. Griffin and I are still trying to recover from losing plenty of needed rest.

He isn't' sleeping as much as I would like (only about 8-9 hours a day) but the Dr said that he is not concerned because he is still a very happy baby. Luckily he sleeps mostly at night. He is also not taking a bottle anymore. That is an issue that we have been trying to rectify for the past few weeks. (We have tried everything, I mean everything) The pediatrician suggested trying a sippy cup. That wasn't a big hit either. We are not giving up though but the countdown has begun because Griffin starts daycare in January when I go back to work.

He is a talker, this picture was taken mid story. They are long and full of laughs. I will try to video one and post it.
