Spencer turned two months old yesterday and I am official in love with this baby. He’s happy, he’s smiley, he’s chubby, he’s perfect! LOTS of pictures below…
Spencer at 2 months…
and Maxwell at 2 months…
Interesting how much darker Maxwell’s eyes were by this point. Spencer’s are still really blue – maybe he’ll keep the blue eyes! I definitely think Spencer is bigger than Maxwell was at this point but we’ll confirm at the doctor on Friday.
I don’t want to jinx anything but, so far, Spencer’s just been such an easy baby. He cries when he’s hungry and rarely cries any other time. If he does cry, I can always get him calmed down within a few minutes – usually by swaddling him up, giving him a paci and swaying him to sleep. He’s sleeping great at night. As of the past week or so, he’s been eating around 7:00 pm and then I’ll get him down “for the night” by around 8:30 or 9:00 and then he’ll wake up again around 2:00 and then not again until around 6:00. I’ll take that! He’s sleeping in his room but I’ve been putting him in his Rock N Play Sleeper instead of his crib and I think he’s sleeping better that way. It’s more cozy and it keeps him inclined a little which is good. When he does wake up to eat at night, he eats and then just goes right back to sleep all swaddled up! A dream baby! 🙂
This picture makes me laugh with his little arm propped up…
During the day, he’ll go between 3 to sometimes even 6 hours between feedings. He’s great at taking a bottle when necessary which is nice.
We’re getting some great smiles and lots of coo-ing and it just makes me melt. He’s definitely getting his brother’s (and dad’s!) long, thick, dark eyelashes (yay!) and has the cutest little lopsided grin.
Posing with “Bear Bryant” – thanks for the name suggestion Granddad! A good complement to “Little Al”!
I love this little guy with all my heart and am so glad he decided to join our family!
Happy 2 months Spencer, we love you!
