We had Luke's 2 month appt yesterday afternoon. He was 13lbs and 23in meaning he gained 3lbs and 1.5inches in the past month. Woohoo! The Dr said not to change his diet at all in the next two months. He seemed very happy I was exclusively breastfeeding.
Talked to the Dr about Luke's off and on congestion. Seems like one minute he sounds stuffy and the next he is fine. He gets stuffy when he gets upset or excited or if the heat is running too long. Poor guy. The Dr said he is fine and just use saline drops. It will probably get better when it gets warmer and when he gets older and starts breathing through his mouth more. Poor guy always sounds sniffy and snorty though. Plus he snores!
Luke got 4 shots yesterday. Mike came to the appt right after work and made it just in time to hold him for his shots. I have such a hard time with that! Luke fell asleep about 30 seconds after his shots, lol. I guess it took a lot out of him.
Anyway, the Dr was so happy with how strong and verbal he is. He cooed and chatted for a while with the Dr. and charmed all the nurses. He loves people!

7 weeks
Everything is going great over here! I wish I could freeze this moment in time and have more time with my boys at this age. :)
Lukey Poo is such a snuggle bum. He loves to be held as much as humanly possible. I think he would still be in my stomach if he could, haha. He curls up into a little potato and snuggles so hard against my chest. He is a great nurser and eats every 2-4 hours. He is very efficient and nurses for only a short time and then is done with it. He is not a comfort nurser like Nathan was. By the size of his cheeks and thighs though, he is definitely getting enough! :) He is 13lbs according to our scale. He is growing out of his size 1 diapers and 0-3 month clothing so quickly. He sleeps well as long as you don't put him down, haha. Quite the struggle! He really doesn't like sleeping anywhere but in your arms.
Luke is cooing and talking so much lately. He loves it when you talk to him. He can "agoo" with his mouth shut, which is very talented, haha. His eyes sparkle and he nods his head and coos and clicks his tongue like he is really carrying on a conversation. He is a very social guy!
Nathan is such a sweet, smart little boy. He sings the "Lukey Poo" song: "Lukey Lukey Lukey Poo...Lukey is a baby", haha. He is always so thoughtful and loves making us laugh. He makes his trains and cars talk to each other all the time. A typical train conversation: "You want lunch?" "I want a cereal bar." "NO cereal bars!" "Awww!" He really does play so well independently. He loves playdoh and painting and reading to himself.
