Two month birthday

Liam is two months old - I can't believe it, time is flying! I thought it would be great to be on maternity leave over the holidays, and it has been; however, the holidays always fly by and this year was no exception.

A few tidbits about Liam:
*He's a great sleeper - he's slowly increased the number of hours he slept at night and will now sleep between 6-8 hours. LOVE it! He never kept me up at night when I was pregnant, so I'm so glad he continued this and started sleeping through the night early! Scott has his theories about why Liam is a good sleeper; however, you'll have to ask him about those.

*He's also a good eater and when he decides it's time to eat, you better be ready to feed him or he'll let you know he's not happy.

*He likes to smile at you while you talk to you him. He has a couple of smiles - he'll start with a tiny smile, then he opens his mouth into a wide smile and will wave his hands around.

*He's starting to coo back at us more when we talk to him.

*He gets hot very easily and is NOT happy when he's hot. I think he gets that from me. The four of us were in the car to go somewhere - Scott and Karsten both had their winter coats on and neither Liam and I had coats on. He gets so hot in the carseat that we have started to wrap a thin icepack in a towel and put it under him. No judging people - you haven't been in the car when he gets too hot and screams the whole ride home.

*We had his two month checkup and everything looks great - he's right on track.  He weighs 14lbs which is in the 90th percentile.  He is 22 inches tall which is in the 20th percentile.
