I'm a Kiwi!

Zander got a package from his Aunty Rachael and cousins Simone and Dylan. They sent him some New Zealand staples that every kiwi baby should have. For now he will be sporting his New Zealand gear, but in no time he will be eating Marmite on toast, watching the All Blacks play rugby, sipping hot Milo drinks, saying things like "bala legs" and "munga", snacking on cheezels with his mummy, and traveling to New Zealand to meet all his family.  

2 Months Old!

Time sure does fly by. My baby is already 2 months old! He had his two month appointment with Dr. Jones and got 3 shots in his chubby little legs. Poor thing screamed louder than I've ever heard him scream before! The worst part is that I had to hold his hands down and look straight into those puppy dog eyes as it was being done. He was a trooper though and calmed down as soon as I picked him up. He slept the rest of the day. Here are some two month stats on Mr. Z.
* Weighs 8 lbs and is 20 1/4 inches long
* Smiles when I clap his hands together

* Drinks 3 oz every 3 hours

* Makes eye contact and looks around when he hears noises

* Still hates getting his diaper changed

* Already rolled off the couch (sorry baby!)

* Out grew his premie clothes and is in newborn sizes

Zander loves his daddy

I think it's time to retire these pjs.

Zander fell asleep while I was feeding him. Not even milk dripping out of his mouth could wake him up.

Zander had his first pool experience today. I put his feet in the water and he loved it! Can't wait for him to fit into swim diapers and we can get in all the way.

This face is hilarious!

With cousin Clayton. He is excited for when Zander can get in and play with him.

My child is talented! No need for us to hold his bottle. The pure power of his sucking can keep the bottle straight in the air. Don't know why, but this made me laugh hysterically tonight.
