2 Months-ish

Ryan's two month appointment was actually more like a two and a half month visit since Dr. K was on vacation the week before.  Not too surprisingly, he is till at the very top of the charts for weight (98th percentile) and height (100th percentile).  Over the past two weeks or so, we have moved his bedtime back to 9pm and I think we could probably go earlier.  He sleeps until I wake him up at 8am, but since he will start going to school shortly, he will need to get up closer to 7am.  He currently eats 7-8oz five times a day, but I'm working on dropping a feeding so we have four 8oz feedings a day.  We also need to start thinking about graduating from the swaddle to the sleep sack. It took us weeks to make that transition with Elizabeth since we are so hesitant to do anything that will interfere with sleep.

Ryan has outgrown his bouncy seat and the swing, but he loves spending time on his play mat.  He spends a good amount of the day on it.  His head control is getting better but is still a work in progress.  He is very smiley and even giggles a little bit. 





Elizabeth continues to be the sweetest, most attentive big sister.  She calls Ryan "buddy" and "honey" and loves to "keep an eye on him."  As a reward for her helpfulness and great behavior, I took her out to lunch and to the Fox Theater to see Scooby Doo Live.  We had a great girls' afternoon out.
