Weston- 2 months

Its 9:30am and all 4 of my kids are sleeping! Just thought I'd put that out there to remember for eternity. Westons only been here 2 months, but in some ways it feels like forever. Like forever in the way that forever ago when you could sneak away from your occupied, big enough children for a few seconds of time to re-group... yea... somehow that little darling boy always manages to find me. Or how you used to sleep many, many hours during the night, and  now suddenly, you don't.
 
But that's 100% ok. I kind of am obsessed with him. The older I get, the more I am realizing how precious life is, and I am remembering how quickly this little thing will soon be a big thing and how Ill yearn to hold a newborn babe again. I've had many a moments where I'll just stop, and remind myself of this and enjoy the moment, no matter how awful it may seem at the time.
 
Weston at 2 months.
13 lb. 6 oz.
23.5 in long.
 
Weston came out of the womb a really great sleeper. I just knew that soon, he would sleep through the night and I, for once, would have a good sleeping baby.
I was wrong.
We just needed to enjoy a month of that and then I was kindly reminded what its like to have a not-good sleeping baby... and I've been reminded every night since then... and nap time too. He doesn't like those too terribly much. But, I love him anyways. The night times are so much more bearable with breastfeeding, I don't have to get up and make a bottle and sit up and feed him, just gotta pull him to me and together we lay there and drift back off to sleep. I really do love that part of it! Besides, who doesn't wanna wake up to this perfect little squishy faced boy.
 
 


Two months starts the fun stuff! We've loved the little smiles and coos and now the laughs. He is such a happy, joyful baby.

 He smiled at daddy looooong before he gave me anything.
 
We went on our first overnight trip with little man. Oh boy did I forget how much stuff you have to pack for a baby. We went to Lake Buchanan with Nat's family. We had a great time of just hanging out.
 
 
 
 
This is how we roll now-a-days.
 
 
 
Weston had his first swim and he looooved it!
 
 
We celebrated the 4th if July in style.
 
 
 
 
There is NO shortage of love for this little boy. He has so much fun with his big bro and sisters. I am so thankful he has them!
 
 
 
 
 
 
He may be getting a little spoiled to being held.
What a special little boy we've been given.
