It's amazing how fast he is growing. He was 19.5 inches and 6 lbs 6 ounces when we brought him home but at his two month appointment on Friday he measured 22.5 inches and 10.5 pounds. I can believe the weight gain because our little man definately likes to eat!!! We go through so much formula. I wonder if it's too late to buy stock in a formula company.
Today is also my first Mother's Day. It's surreal to think that I'm a mom now. How things can change in a year. Last year it wasn't even on my radar to have a baby and here I am with the little guy laying against my chest in his Baby K'tan sling. I wish time would slow down a bit because at the rate we're going, he'll be 18 and going to college in the blink of the eye.
It's amazing how quick mommy talk started when I got back to work. Instead of catching up with the folks at my office about the shopping I did over the wekeend, I talk about the joys of breastfeeding, poopy diapers and the never ending list of recalled prodcts that seem to grow hourly. The office is being really nice about it because I can just imagine they'd like to whack me upside the head from listening to my baby stories. Before I had Nathan I didn't feel like I could relate to my friends who already had babies but now I totally understand where they were coming from. The joys, the pains and the frustrations that come with being a new parent. So to all the mom's, Happy Mother's Day.
Happy Belated Mother's Day! Love the 2 month photo! too cute!
