2 Months

Neacel turned two months old on the 13Th and we celebrated by going to the doctor and getting shots! I was so afraid he was going to scream and cry the whole time but he truly shocked me. First the medicine by mouth, I was told most babies spit it out and that its OK for them to. Not my kid! He took it like a trooper! Then came the shots, the first one he starts smiling and laughing! The second one was followed by screaming and crying so we waited a few minutes for the third. The nurse came in and gave him the shot...his eyes got super big and then he said "GA" followed by a smile! I was totally shocked. He did great! Neacel is growing up a ton and we are loving every minute of it. Bath time is his favorite. He sits in his tub talking, smiling and laughing, and of course splashing around a ton. He is constantly talking to us and is always smiling and laughing. Nights still suck but we are putting rice cereal in his bottle before bed and he sleeps a little longer but not a ton. The pediatrician thinks he may have heartburn so he is taking some medicine for that and we will find out in the next few nights if that's what it is or not.
I still love being a mom and have found that the older he gets the more time I have for me. (shower, eating, gym, etc.) Him and I spend the day playing, eating, watching tv, and cleaning. He isn't taking very long naps during the day. 30 minutes here and there but that's about it. He is wearing 0-3 now but that's getting snug so 3-6 has come out of storage! Plus everything I can't help to buy for him. Every penny I get ends up going on things for him. Tomorrow I'm going to Target and buying most (if not all) the toys they have on clearance right now! He still eats like a bottomless pit but I guess that's a boy thing! I can't believe its been two months already. I think both Nick and I have taken to being parents pretty great. Nick helps a ton! He and I both started a bedtime routine so that Neacel will get use to things and so that we can have some quiet time. First a bath (usually Nick does that) then Ill get him dressed for bed and make his "special" bottle and feed that to him while Nick reads him a story! We both love our little boy and love being parents!

Also, I'm not going to be able to post as much for a while:-( We don't have a computer or internet and I have no idea when we are going to have those. But I will do my best and Nick will post things here and there too! Sorry
