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

Happy Friday
did you expect anything less from this child....?
As I am sitting at the computer, I hear Riley in the studio saying..."come on bed...you too small!" I walk in to find him stripped of his clothes and trying to squeeze himself onto my tiny baby bed prop. Somehow I think this is a look into the future...and the start to many other things Riley will find are too small!

Poor Bear....?
As you all know, Riley and the dog have been buddies since the beginning...
Riley has always crawled and hugged on bear....
Which was fine until little Riley become...well, not so little anymore...
Now Riley uses Bear as a launching pad to jump off of and onto, as a step stool to reach unreachable objects and as a pawn in his little games, such as trying to brush her teeth with a spatula or putting hats on her head. Riley gets in trouble for treating the dog this way...we really don't want bear to end up on as ASPCA commercial, but for some reason she really doesn't seem to mind all the abuse.

Like Looking in a Mirror
Tate is fascinated by this big bald man...could it be because there is something familiar...
