Boogey Face
Caiden sneezes a lot. The other day, he sneezed and this happened:
Dan and I couldn't stop laughing, which made Caiden smile... which made it even funnier. Of course we had to capture it on film. But it was a cute photo, so we removed the booger and took another

Month 2 Stats
Caiden had his 2 month check-in this morning. He is now 24 inches tall (85%), weighing in at 13lbs 6oz (85%), and has a 40.5 cm head circumference (62%). He got a stamp of approval from the doctor, who once again said that Caiden is "thriving". The only thing we need to work a little extra on is his head. The doctor could tell that Caiden prefers looking to his right, and it's making one side of his head slightly flat. He said it was nitpicking, but that we should try to get him looking left.
Unfortunately todays visit also included 2 shots. This poor little man does not like shots! He turned almost purple he was crying so hard. So hard to watch! He's been fussy ever since. Hopefully he feels better soon!
This picture is unrelated to today's event... but it's cute! Auntie Margaret met us for a quick shopping trip yesterday. Caiden had a nice little snuggle!

2 months old!
Remember this little peanut?
Well now he looks like this:
What a difference 2 months make! Here is what this little man has been up to the past few weeks
He discovered his tongue, and loves to stick it out. This also means drool! I know it will get worse when he starts teething, but he can really get going!
He loves to stand and sit, with help of course
He can even sit in the bumbo by himself, although he starts to slump after a little bit
He loves to watch the action from the bouncy chair
He still hates tummy time, but it will last a little longer if he is propped up a little
He is turning into quite the Chatty Cathy. Every day he discovers new noises. Grunts, squeaks, coos, goos, all his way of communicating. He is still sleeping well. 8 hour stretches are becoming more frequent, although 6-7 hours is still the norm. Occasionally he regresses back to 3 or 4 hours, but that's the exception these days. His daytime napping is starting to show a hint of a pattern, I'm working on getting him down for real naps (as opposed to letting him fall asleep wherever he is).

Moving on
Today was my last mother's group, we had fun taking lots of photos of the babies all together. Hopefully we'll stay in touch and get together occasionally.
Where's Waldo? Err... Caiden?
Our little chunker next to his friend Jack (to the left), who is a few weeks older but almost 4 pounds lighter than Caiden.
Future girlfriend?

Road trip!
Yesterday Grandpa Jack took us to visit Caiden's Great Grandma Esther in Connecticut. He did very well, snoozing through most of the car ride, and he was on his best behavior during lunch. He was the hit of the dining room, where there were lots of Grandparents and Great Grandparents who could relate to Grandma's excitement.
