He’s 2 months old and thinks he is “big stuff” when he is standing! If he could talk, he would be saying, “Look at me Mom, I’m standing.” I can see it in his eyes!!!
We had a great week this past week. I really think that Amos is getting used to life outside the womb. While he is awake, he is pretty much just taking in his surroundings. He loves looking at the tree in the nursery while he eats, out the window, at all the wonderful things hanging from his activity and his bug. About 4 weeks ago, I hung a bug from his car seat handle and for the last 3 weeks, he could care less. But this week, the bug is tied for first with Daddy.
Speaking of Daddy, we were spoiled by having Daddy all to ourselves for 3 days straight! On Saturday, we all piled into the CR-V and headed to Springfield. I had found an armoire on craigslist that was worth the drive!!! After FINALLY getting it into the CR-V (Jason no longer had a seat and Amos was in the front with me – I wish I had a picture) we headed to the DAV and Jason scored some pretty sweet ties. Then we made our way to the Mall to kill some time – Jason’s parents were joining us for dinner that evening. And while at the mall, we ran into old friends from college who also had new babies! Amos must have been exhausted from the day because he slept 7 hours that night – the longest to date.
On Sunday and Monday, Amos and I enjoyed Daddy time. Daddy can make Amos laugh just about every time he has him. Jason had Amos outside more than he’s been in his entire life (aka the last 2 months) and we all went on a walk on Monday. Amos loved his stroller so much that he promptly fell asleep. He’s been quite the napper for Mommy. Now that he’s sleeping and found his thumb/fingers, he pretty much goes down without a fuss!
We head to the doctor for our 2-month check up on Thursday. We are anxious to find out how much our boy has grown!
