2 Months Old!

We can't believe that our little boy is two months old! It is amazing how quickly he is growing. We took him for his two month check up on Thursday.

Here are his recent stats:

weight = 11 lbs 13.4oz (55%)

height = 23 1/2 in (75%)

head = 38 cm (15%)

The doctor said that he is growing wonderfully and doing well. We did find out that our little man has a small case of reflux. Bless his heart he has to take Mylanta like an old man. Hopefully it will work well and give him some relief. He still loves to smile and coo. He plays with his "friends" and now talks to them too. He has found his hands and feet, and is fascinated by them as well as other peoples hands. I think he spent a good 10 min looking and talking to his Grammy's hand yesterday. It was too cute. We hope you enjoy this new picture of our big two month old. We are still amazed daily that the Lord has given us such a blessing in giving us our son. It makes us realize even more the sacrifice that was made on Calvary, when God sent his son to be the one and only sacrifice for our sins. For this we are grateful!

Elias' smile

Here is a picture of how Elias is smiling. It is a very open-mouthed smile, and we definitely prefer and look forward to it anytime. Some other pics as well of Elias after his bath.

Elias' growth

Here is a comparison picture that shows a little of how big Elias is getting. Brody is as big and goofy as ever.

Elias is growing so fast!

Last Sunday our little boy turned one month old. We can hardly believe that he is already a month old. We took him to the doctor for his check up on Monday. He weighed 9lbs. 14.4oz. and was 22 1/4 in. long. (He was also weighed on Thursday and was 10lbs. 2oz.) He also has a few new tricks. He can hold is head up very well during tummy time and loves to look at his "friends" (toys). He has also given us his first smiles and coos. What joy that brings to our hearts. He loves for us to talk to him and it is just precious when he tries to talk back. He enjoys his bath time now that he can have a real bath and not just a sponge bath. We are so thankful for the blessing that he is in our lives and are grateful to the Lord for giving us such a precious gift.
