2 months old

September 28th, 2009

Asher turned 2 moths old last week. Just as I had thought last month, things are going much smoother around here now that our guy is getting older. The biggest adjustment is after 6 weeks off Matthew has gone back to work. Sob, sigh (but also YAY, money).  Having major alone time with the little dude is definitely less stressful than I expected it would be. I was completely petrified that first week but its truly in my nature to assume the worst so it can’t be helped. I’m just a worrier that can worry about being worried. I always enjoy being pleasantly surprised!

Milestones and other novel things:

Asher…

Recognizes both of our voices and faces, sits up really well, loves music, Won’t stop talking and thinks everything he says is funny, laughs and smiles at the following things: me, Matthew, his mobile, being swaddled, the camera, everything all the time. Dislikes: the sun, the car seat, missing out on stuff during naps. Verdict still out on: showers, outside in general, the cat. Stats at 2month appt: 13lbs (75%) 24.5″ (90%).

Me…

Have made it to mom’s group almost every week, took Asher to his first movie (All About Steve, sorry dude), walked all over the neighborhood 972 times, found a bench in the park where we like to sit and enjoy the day, managed to finish my photography assignment 2 weeks in a row, Introduced lots more friends to Asher, took tons of videos in the hope of catching his laughter on film.

Outtakes from our photo shoot – too cute to post just one
(especially after he fell over and kept smiling, what a pro!)
