Hard to believe Abram is already 2 months old! He had his check up yesterday. He is a big, healthy boy :) Abram weighs 14 lbs. 7 oz. (75th%) and is 22 3/4" long (50th%). Head is 16" (60th%). He is growing well and continues to be a hearty eater.
Abram is meeting all of his developmental milestones. It's so fun that he's playing, smiling and "talking" every day. In general he is a very happy baby. He mostly just gets fussy when he's hungry or if Mommy eats something that bothers his tummy. Abram is doing well with tummy time (much better than Rebecca did...she HATED it). We can tell already that he is a strong little guy. He also loves to watch his big sister :) He has a hard time keeping up with her since she runs/dances around so fast. But he sure tries. And gets a kick out of her.

He had his first shot yesterday. Poor guy. But he did well. He only cried for a minute. And that was the only time he cried the whole appt. We have decided to do a modified vaccine schedule so that his body does not get taxed with so many things at once. He'll still get his vaccines, just spread out/at a slower pace. Thankfully he didn't seem to have any reactions to the shot. He was a little fussy/snuggly for a couple hours, but that's all. By afternoon he was ready to play!
Abram is doing pretty well at night lately. He usually sleeps for 4-5 hours when he first goes down. Then goes back to eating about every 2 hours. And he usually eats and goes right back to sleep in the night. So Mommy doesn't have to be up for too long...unless she falls asleep with him :P
Cloth diapering is going well. We're still trying to figure out how to keep him dry all night since he is such a heavy wetter. But aside from that the cloth is working great! Not a single blow out diaper (love that). No diaper rash. And they are so cute :) Plus it's wonderful not to have to buy diapers and wipes every week!!
Abram loves the Moby...and spends a lot of time in it. It's the only way Mary can get stuff done most days. He is becoming quite the "helper."
Overall he's doing great and we feel very blessed to have a healthy, happy baby boy. And we are so excited to celebrate his baptism this Sunday. What a special day for all of us.

Abram is growing fast! I loved the changes from month to month... seems like they do something new everyday. How fun!
Glad he's sleeping well, too! I remember Carson started sleeping really well around 6 weeks... I remember being very thankful since I was going back to work then. It was such a nice luxury to sleep most of the night through! :)
I never thought you would get behind on blogging. ;-) I know for myself, bloggging is fairly low on the priority list for getting things done, though, too. Looking forward to hearing about all the fun things you guys have been doing these last few weeks!
I didn't know I was behind :P I was planning to lump a few things together that we've done lately. Not many pics, so I figured I'd do them all together.
I guess I thought you'd do a baptism post, at least. You've been taking tons of pics at things you've been doing, so thought you'd post about those, too.
I wanted to wait for the pics from my dad for baptism...which I guess we kind of have now. The other stuff is just daily activities that I've posted about before (children's museum, etc.). So I was just going to mention them all at once. And we've had activities the last 2 days as well. So I wanted to wait for those before posting about it all. I guess I can do them now.
