Silas @ 2 Months


Weight: 12 lb. 3 oz. (43rd percentile)
Height: 23 in. (44th percentile)
Head circumference: 15 in. (16th percentile)

Here's what Little Mister is up to:

  • Started sleeping through the night at the beginning of this last week!!!  We really thought he'd take longer to hit this milestone because of his difficulty in sleeping from 10pm-1am every night.  But just like Lily, 8 weeks old proved to be a spectacular age for sleeping.  He goes to sleep around 10pm and I wake him up at 7/7:30am.
  • Absolutely LOVES his sister.  She doesn't even have to do anything to get smiles and babbles out of him - just simply sit near him and he lights up!  This has got to be my favorite thing ever...seeing their relationship grow.  I tear up just thinking about it!
  • Still loves to be swaddled for all naps and bedtime.  Also loves white noise while he sleeps so the iPod sits nearby playing white noise on an app Justin downloaded.  This is genius b/c we won't have to switch between a humidifier (in the winter) and a fan (in warmer months) like we did with Lily.
  • On a 3 hour feeding schedule during the day.
  • Has found his fist and has been trying to put it in his mouth.
  • Started doing little laughs.  I know it's hard to believe he would this young but since he started smiling so early (3 weeks old), it wouldn't surprise us!  I have yet to catch it on video.  He never performs as well when I have the camera out!  I think he's distracted by the blinking light. :)
  • Is an all-around "easy baby", although I think that phrase might be an oxymoron.
