2 Months

Dallin is two months old today! Where has the time gone? It went by super fast, but at the same time, I feel like he's always been here. He had his 2 month appointment on Friday, the 24. Here are his stats: Weight - 11 lbs  8 oz, Length - 22 1/2 inches, Head Circumference - 39 cm. I could be wrong on the last one. I left the paper at the Doctors, along with a pacifier, and I don't remember exactly what it was. He hasn't gotten his shots yet. That will be on Tuesday. I'm not looking forward to it..

It is so fun to watch him learn new things and grow! Here are some things I love about our little boy:

- Smiles! At 5 weeks, Dallin smiled a real smile for the first time. It was a Sunday and he made eye contact with me and smiled in response to my smile. Jacob was there to witness it too, so it wasn't just my imagination. Throughout the past 4 weeks, the smiles have become more and more frequent.

- His cooing noises! Some times he just goes on and on... he's already a little chatter box! Tonight was one of those nights. He was sitting in his bouncer chair and looking at the giraffe and elephants that hang in front of him, smiling and cooing his head off.

- Dallin is a pretty good sleeper. Usually he sleeps for about 7 to 8 hours at night. Occasionally, he will wake up around 4 AM, but other than that, it's not too bad. One night last week he slept for 9 1/2 hours! Hopefully he'll start doing that more often!

-He likes to stand up. We will hold him under his arms and let him stand on our laps. He is getting good at holding his head up, and when he stands he get this look on his face like he's concentrating extremely hard.

And now for pictures.... YAY!

His blessing day: September 5, 2010
He wasn't very happy in this picture because he was hungry
   
We hiked to Stuart Falls on Labor Day 

He fell asleep in his swing and fell over
