2 & a half months later...

Our little man is 2 & a half months old now (10 weeks yesterday), and he's doing great! Smiling and laughing, and he's started swatting at his toys above his head. He's not rolling over yet, and honestly is showing no signs of wanting to! So far, he is just content laying and playing. Hopefully he figures it out soon! He's still a big, growing boy. Our home measurements from my last post were a little off, I think, because according to the pediatrician 2 weeks ago, he was 16lbs and 25". He also got his first set of shots while we were there, and he was a champ! He cried for the shots, then just wanted mommy, and ended up sleeping through most of the fussiness. He's holding his head up better every day, and sleeps longer every night. I've had a few scattered nights of 8 hours straight! Those are special nights though; he usually sleeps about 6 hours or so for the first chunk, then two hours at a time after that. I had the flu last Saturday, and he actually slept for 9 consecutive hours! Wyatt knew that Momma needed some rest.
My mom and I went to Lincoln City with Wyatt week before last. It was Wyatt's first trip to the beach! He's a little young to really appreciate it, but I love the beach! And it was beautiful weather for my mom and I to enjoy. It was a really nice couple days away from reality. Here are some of the photos, which are also the most recent photos I have of Wyatt uploaded right now!

We had the baby shower/open house at Stuart's parents' house this last Sunday, where I got to meet all of Stuart's family friends. It was a really nice party! I was still recovering from my rough day of being sick, but I survived and had a pretty good time.
I go back to school on Tuesday, and Wyatt starts going to the babysitter -- a woman we know from church who is a stay at home mommy of a 4 year old little girl. It will be the first time we are apart for longer than 2 hours, and I am so nervous! I think it will be harder on me than it is for him ;) Having the flu dehydrated me like crazy, so I've been having trouble nursing him. We talked to the pediatrician and have some formula all lined up to supplement if I'm not able to nurse enough to fill his big belly! We gone through everything we had stored up in the freezer for when I went back to school, so I'm nervous for that too! I really didn't want to have to use formula, so I'm trying to avoid it! Darn flu bug!!
Well, I think that's all for now. He's still a very good baby, and he gets more fun every day. I just love my little man and being his mommy!
