two months with colsen
he's two months old now! whatt?! this summer has flown by and we're moving back home to utah in just a few days. we'll miss st louis and the memories we've made here. colsen has grown so much these past 2 months and it's exciting watching him explore the world around him and learn new skills.
some notes about colsen this past month:
+ his eye lashes have definitely grown longer and are starting to curl (soo cute)
+ holds his head up strong!
+ is so happy when he's on the changing table and loves to kick his legs
+ smiles all the time
+ loves being cuddled next to mommy in the k'tan wrap. he even stopped crying when he saw me putting it on!
+ is quite the talker in the morning
+ has been sleeping through the night consecutively the past week (!!!) we sure are happy about that!
+ poor guy has acid reflux but it's been much better now that we know how to help him
+ getting more rolls on his thighs and arms
+ likes to be under the play mat and has a strong grip on the links and toys hanging
+ sometimes prefers to be sitting up and looking around rather than laying down
+ easily goes down for naps and puts himself to sleep

My little man is a week behind Colsen! He also loves kicking his legs on the changing table and talking in the morning. I wish my guy was sleeping through the night. Right now, he does about 4.5-5hours if I'm lucky. I think he has acid reflux too. What did you do to help C?
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, just stalked your blog and your little boy is adorable! i wish my colsen had hair like your guy ;) something that helped me out with getting colsen to sleep through the night is this blog post -- http://www.feathersinournest.com/2013/10/10-tips-for-establishing-newborn-sleep.html
Deleteas for the acid reflux, we rarely ever lay him flat on his back. he's always elevated somehow. for his crib, we bought one of those crib wedges and i think that has really helped with him sleeping better and not spitting up nearly as much as he used to. my Dr. recommended a few other things like giving him medicine or adding rice cereal to his milk if i feed him a bottle, but i haven't done any of those yet. just by keeping him elevated, it has helped a LOT :)
leave us some love
xo, him&her
