2 Months Old
Joshua is 2 months old! He is almost 13 lbs and 24 inches long. He's starting to get such a personality and he is SO dang cute! He loves to look at books while I read to him and LOVES the Itsy-Bitsy Spider song. He still sleeps like a crazy man. Beau calls him little Houdini because no matter how tight we wrap him up in his blanket with his arms down to his sides, he will get them out. He has decided he doesn't like his pacifier anymore and he'll spit it out the second I put it in. Now he just chews on his hands....All day. His hair is starting to lighten a lot so I'm not sure what color it is going to be anymore. I think he's going through a growth spurt right now, because he has wanted to eat ALL day today. I hope he is; they say that 13 is the magic number for sleeping through the night!
Here are just a few pictures of him over the last 2 weeks.

Naps
Caution: The following post was written at 4:30 am by a VERY tired (yet awake) woman.
I realised something a few minutes ago as I was laying in bed unable to get back to sleep after feeding the baby, and I thought, you better write this down because some day (hopefully) you may look back at this and laugh or maybe even some day you'll forget this feeling. And because I don't even own a journal, I'm blogging...
I've never been much of a napper; in fact, in my past life (prebaby) I preferred not to take naps at all because I usually woke feeling disoriented, and usually with a headache. However, it seems that for the last two months, my life has been a continuous string of two-hour power naps broken up by nursing and singing songs or reading children's books. Even going to bed at night is not really going to bed for the night, it's just a couple more power naps.
I also find it interesting that the book Baby Wise was written to help women get their babies on a schedule, but as I have been trying to follow it's counsel, all it has done is put ME on a schedule and has done basically nothing to schedule my very stubborn (and adorable) little boy (who just happens to be asleep right now).
My life schedule:
Feeding time
Wake time
Nap time
Over and over and over again...Which is why I'm wake...I just fed the baby, so it's "Wake Time" according to Baby Wise.
I'm not complaining! Being a mom is worth all the sleep deprivation in the world. I just think it's funny that once I was not a napper, and now naps are all I get.
