Ben is now two months old. Time is flying so much faster this time around! He had his two-month check up this morning and here are his stats:
Weight = 12 pounds, one ounce (61%)
Height = 23 inches (55%)
Head circumference = 40%
I guess we are out of the newborn stage (although I don't know when it officially ends). Soon it will be time to move Ben out of our room and into his own crib. I'm having a hard time letting go of this stage. Don't get me wrong - I am looking forward to sleeping through the night, crawling, giggles, etc., and frankly, newborns are kinda boring. But I'm sad that I will never again have a newborn baby. No more squeaks or newborn smells. No more tiny baby that sleeps sweetly on my chest.
That being said, I have enjoyed the outings we are starting to take as a family. We are also starting to get into a nice groove, and I cannot wait to get on a more regular schedule. They say babies thrive on a schedule, and I've learned that I do as well. Ben's smiles are pretty awesome too, though somewhat elusive. Here are some pictures from this past month:

| Not the best of photos, but you can see the tuft of hair on top of his head that hasn't laid flat since the day he was born |

| sweet brothers! |

| finally got some proof that Ben's smiles exist! |
