Two Months!

Owen reached his two month milestone yesterday. Though we've had our weeks where time seemed to stand still, as a whole these first two months have flown by. We are gaining a better understanding of the little guy each day. He wants to "face out" when carried, so he can see the world. He's having some good stretches (well if 5-10 minutes counts as a good stretch) of self amusement on his floor mat or in the swing. And he's figured out that night is for sleeping - mostly.

Owen's favorite thing to do is to be naked (I think we're in trouble when he gets old enough to undress himself). The bath, not surprisingly, is a huge hit.

With the two month mark came a trip to the doctor for a weight check and vaccines. I was truly impressed with the speed of the nurse to administer three shots in under 10 seconds. Owen did his best to vocalize his displeasure, but couldn't get fully worked up under such time constraints. He's now 9 lbs, 5 oz (10th percentile). He was below the 3rd percentile at birth, so he's really making up ground.

For those keeping score at home, here's the new photo to compare with the August 6th images :
