Daniel: Two Months Old

Our sweet little boy. 

Oh how you bring so much joy to our lives. I was just telling daddy that I feel so different with you around. Being your mommy has changed my life. I want you to always know the beauty and joy that God has surrounded our life in. His works are amazing. 

You celebrated your two month birthday this week! I can't believe that you are two months old already. Sometimes I feel like you have been part of our lives forever, but then I realize that it has only been two months. I'm glad that it has only been two months. I'm soaking all of this up--watching you grow is such a beautiful thing! 

Speaking of growing, you are getting SO big! You take your food very seriously. When you wake up, you make it known that you expect to eat immediately. Having your diaper changed or being burped in the middle of your meal are not acceptable in your book--you just want to gulp as much down as quickly as possible. At the doctors this week, you weighed in at 10 pounds and 8 ounces! This doesn't seem like much, but the doctor was very happy with your progress--and we are too! You also grew another inch! You're going to be a big boy aren't you? 

To celebrate your two month birthday, I decided to see how you handled your bumbo chair. While you may be technically to young for it, you seem to love it nonetheless. Mommy just makes sure to only leave you in it for ten minutes or less. You also are in cloth diapers 100% of the time, love to look at books while mommy reads to you, love to kick, and will talk to whomever will listen to you. 

One of your favorite places is daddy's shoulder. You and him share a special bond that makes mommy's heart melt. He is the best father and you are so blessed to have him as your father, little boy. I can't even begin to tell you what a blessing he is to us. 

Keep growing my little man. 

Love, 

Your mama
