Two months today!



Joshua is officially two months old as I write this blog - and what a two months it has been! He continues to be the greatest joy that Geoffrey and I have ever experienced, and is growing up too fast already. He is already outgrowing some of his outfits, which is so sad and wonderful at the same time. He is about ten and a half pounds now, and is eating LOTS. We are trying out the soy-based formula as we suspect a cows milk allergy or intolerance - lots of gas and tummy pains that we hope to alleviate. I am continuing to breastfeed as well, and doing everything in my power to keep my milk supply increasing. No small feat - the breast pump and I are joined at the, well, you know where.

It has been a momentous week - Josh rolled over from his tummy to his back all by himself, and has had three consecutive nights of 5 hour sleeps too. We hope this trend continues! He is chattering more and more every day, and the smiles are appearing more readily too - it is such a sweet feeling to go to him in the crib and to be greeted by a big grin once he sees you - sigh! Yes, he has his Mommy wrapped around his finger - and Daddy too, if not more so.
