Walker at 2 months

Walker turned two months old on Saturday! How the time has flown, I cannot believe he is 2 months already!

He weighs about 8 pounds (8 lb, 2 oz on Monday!) and is eating about 80 ml of breast milk every 3-4 hours.  In the evening he is usually eating every 2 hours for a 6, 8, and 10 feeding and then going about 5 hour stretches in the night. Which we love. He's staying awake for maybe 3-4 hours total per day.  Which is newborn-style, which is what stage he's technically in.  We go for his follow-up eye exam this week so I am hoping to hear that his retinas have matured and we don't have to go back for a while, but I know God is taking care of him whatever they say.  (he has to go every 2 weeks and get his eyes dilated and stay for a 3-4 hour appointment until his retinas mature or he unfortunately could possibly develop a vision problem but we are praying that doesn't happen.) He's wearing newborn clothes and fitting in them perfectly.  He's wearing size newborn diapers but will be moving to size 1 sometime this week (mainly because we're out of newborn after this bag and we don't want to buy more and not be able to use them).  Walker is a generally happy baby and just wants to eat, sleep, and be warm. He takes a "soothie" pacifier sometimes but isn't really crazy about it just yet.  I wish he'd take the Nuk ones so I could hook it onto more paci clips but oh well. The 'soothie' kind are what they used in the NICU.  

Now for pictures, in his own room to boot!

Nope, don't want to take pictures on this huge day bed!

Ok, this is better at least I have a companion

I will look right at you.  but I will not smile yet.

hey teddy, are you smiling? I'm not, don't give in!

mama.  I told you, I'm not ready to smile while I'm awake yet.  You'll have to settle for my sleepy dreamy smiles for now.

Ok, the rocker is fine. But this pillow is huge!

Now we're lying down, teddy? What's the deal-i-o?

Ok I am just going to eat my hands until you give up, mama. I'm all done.  

PS I forgot to mention that CC also made his curtains in his room.  See next post about his room to see how great they turned out!
