Two Months Old

Yesterday Benjamin was two months old. He is now no longer a newborn baby and that is always sad. He is getting so big and growing so fast. At his checkup last week he weighed in at 11 lbs. 13 oz. and is 23" long. He is very strong and holds himself up very well. He has started to interact more and smile and talk and make noises. He still has blue eyes, so I think it is safe to say we finally have a blue eyed child! He is really a pretty good baby. He usually wakes up once at night around 4 am give or take an hour. I give him a bottle occasionally and he will drink formula from it. He is being left with a babysitter for the first time tonight, we are going to see Phantom of the Opera. Hopefully all goes well. He is darling and wonderful and we all love him very much.

I finally got a picture of him smiling.





He sometimes likes to sleep propped up in the corner of the couch
