2 months

Height: 23 1/4 inches (50th percentile)
Weight: 13 lbs 13 oz (90th percentile)

Carson is doing great.  As you can see he's a big, hungry boy.   He still likes to eat every 2-3 hours, even at night (which makes for one tired momma!)  He is becoming more awake and interactive every day.  He smiles a lot and has started talking (coo-ing) a little.  He LOVES to snuggle.  If he could sleep with one of us every night he would sleep for hours.  He can hold his head pretty well now, and can do a great push-up position.
 Other updates:
Rylee continues to love and adore her brother. We joke that she could literally love him to death! She is one wild child. I don't know how she has so much energy. She's started skipping naps (mainly because she's been sleeping in till 9 or 10 am). She loves to sing, dance and read books. She is a little snuggle bug too. She still struggles with potty training. Some days are good, others are not.
Lance recently got a job!  He hasn't started yet, but should any day now.  He will be working as a procurement agent for Boeing.  He's been wanting to get on there for a while now so this is great news.  It's been a blessing to have him home during my maternity leave.  The timing was just perfect.  We've been able to do so many more activities with the family since he's been home.  I don't think I would ever leave the house with 2 kids!!

I start back to work tomorrow.  I have mixed feeling about this.  In a way, I am glad to get out of the house and have some adult time.  On the other hand, my boy is still so small and vulnerable!  Not to mention he eats SO much!  I worry that I won't be able to produce enough milk while I'm at work.  At least it's only 3 days a week (although 3 long days)!  I feel lucky that we have a great daycare provider that I trust and feel comfortable leaving the kids with.  Wish me luck!!
