Caelan turned 2 months old on Tuesday, May 18th. He also had his 2 month checkup that afternoon. He weighed 11 lbs 5 oz (about 40th percentile) and was 23 inches tall (about 55th percentile). I thought his weight was pretty good considering he spits up a lot just like Ayden did. I told his doctor I even tried cutting out dairy to see if it would make it any better, but he said it rarely helps. Some babies just spit up most of the time, and it starts to slowly get better after they become 4 months old. I'm so happy I can drink milk again. That was really hard to cut out of my diet!
Cael is a happy baby and coos and smiles a lot. He started smiling when he was 5 weeks old and most of the time he will smile when I talk to him. Luckily, he usually only cries when he's hungry or tired. He still hates getting in his car seat and screams when you put him in it until it starts moving. He loves to nap in his swing and sleeps in his crib at night now. He has been waking up about once a night sometimes twice if he falls asleep by 8:00 pm. He is also getting good at putting himself to sleep if I put him in his crib and he wakes up after I put him down. Last week he laughed for the first time at 8 weeks old! He loves the ceiling fan and was looking at it and laughed :) He is very observant and alert too. I took both boys to the grocery store the other day and he was awake and looked around at everything the entire time. Ayden is constantly kissing his head and wants to know where Cael is at if he isn't in the same room as Ayden. I still can't believe he has never had a jealous episode yet! He loves his baby brother! I can't believe it's been 2 months since he was born. They grow so fast!
2 months old and happy!
