Tate Update: 2 Months

3 Months ago I was pregnant and feeling like I would stay that way for the rest of my life.
2 Months ago I was sitting in a hospital bed falling in love all over again!

Life with a 2 month old is wonderful...and it only gets better from here.  Tate smiles all the time, sleeps all the time and eats all the time...with a bit of fussiness here and there, but nothing we can't handle {as long as monkey and snuggie are around}  He is getting to be a big boy, he is the about the same size Riley was at this age.  We do see a difference in body type, Tate seems to be a little "thicker"  through the chest and belly.  Here is a breakdown of Tate's life as a 2 month old:

-loves to fall asleep in your arms wrapped in his blanket and sucking on his monkey pacifier.
-sleeps in crib in nursery (since 3 weeks old)
-we have a half-way schedule: during the day it's every 3-4 hours then a last minute feeding at 10 or 11 pm
-sleeps from 11pm-7am
-exclusively breast fed (which is going great!)
-wears 3-6 and 6 month clothing
-wears size 2 diapers
-12.10 pounds and 23 1/2 inches long
-lost hair on top of head and is now growing back dark
-blue eyes
-big hands and small head...?
-smiles, coos, laughs and squeals
-recognizes mommy, daddy and even Riley's voices
-loves his monkey pacifier (but doesn't keep it in his mouth on his own)
-loves to be rocked
-snorts when he gets upset
-cries tears :(
-can hold his head up at a 90 degree angle when laying on belly (impressive)
-can bear almost all of his weight on legs
-baptised on May 15th 2011
