10 Weeks...


Cooper had his 2 month appointment last Tuesday. I was a little worried he was getting sick because I had been sick but the doctor assured me that babies this age don't get sick easily and Cooper was just fine. In fact he gave Cooper an A+ in health and Kev was so proud!
*So at 10 weeks he weighed in at 11lbs 14oz and 22.5 inches. The doctor said babies should gain about an ounce a day and in 56 days he gained 60 oz, right on!
*He is starting to smile so much! Things that make him smile most: a full belly and clean diaper, bouncing on the exercise ball, being held, the hungry caterpillar toy.

*He has a lot of names so aside from all the silly little terms of endearment we most often refer to him as: Coop, Super Cooper, Pooper, Monster- happy monster, sleepy monster, little monster, the monster etc.)
*He likes to raise his left arm in the air, and sleep with his arms close to his head

*Today he rolled from his belly to his back.
*He doesn't take a binky unless he is falling asleep, but he does suck his fist, or arm when he wants something to suck on. He can't quite find his thumb because it's tucked in his fist, I tried to show him where it was but he didn't remember.
*He loves mobiles and his bouncy chair he just stares and smiles and on the playmat he is getting so good at batting the swinging animals and kicking them
*He loves baths, and having his back rubbed and laying on his belly. He also loves sleeping next to me- this is one we are working on changing...
*His belly button pops out
*He didn't like his shots, but was brave after and quickly stopped crying.


*He is starting to have a pretty reliable 3 hour schedule of eating, smiling and playing, and sleeping!
*Last night we discovered he really likes watching TV, today we discovered that shopping at the outlets isn't his favorite- like father like son!
He is being so fun lately I am love, LoVe, LOVING it!!

It was so fun to finally meet the little guy! Hopefully you still got some good deals at the outlets despite his disinterest!

Yay for growing boys! Sounds like he is doing great all around! And yes, it must be genetic to not appreciate the shopping. Such a cramp on my style!
