This boy! He hit two months a couple weeks ago and he's doing so great. At his checkup he was measuring two pounds bigger than either of his older siblings at his age, and almost as tall as the tallest. He just seems so big already, about the same size as his four-months-older cousin! He's starting to get some nice rolls too so all together he's a very cuddly squishy smiley boy, and such a good baby (which we definitely recognize, and for which we are ever so grateful, especially as the two others seem to have taken things up a notch, perhaps in an attempt to balance out how good the baby is, but also probably just because they're acting their age). He sleeps and eats and etc. just about how he should and he'll occasionally make little talking sounds and he's just about to roll over. I sometimes feel like he is more smiley at Mommy, but it does make sense. It occurred to me recently that this is the first baby we've had during which time I have worked away from home, so I guess I was just lucky to spend more daytime hours with the first two and now I'm getting the experience that most working dads do. Ah well, it just makes me appreciate our Daddy-Son time all the more.

He slept most of the time but I'm sure he enjoyed it. |

See you in a few weeks! We love him more every day if that's even possible!
(ALSO, I'll go ahead and say here that after a few weeks of several calls with insurance and the hospital and various people I did some negotiating and explaining after discovering only after we were discharged by the receptionist nurse at his bilirubin checkup that the hospital where he was born wasn't in our network [and WHY didn't anyone ever mention or even seem to notice this, including our doctors who DO deliver there???], and they were actually REALLY helpful and managed to cut our in-network/out-of-network charges significantly. Sometimes a few calls can mean the difference of a few grand. Sometimes.)
