Zach turned 2 months

Zach is now 2 months. Zach has turned into quite the little fussy little boy - although he intersperses these wonderful smiles in between the very sad crying episodes. Just enough smiles to keep you from going insane. Needless to say - all the baby equipment is getting a lot of use (boppy pillow, swing, bouncer seat, snugli carrier)

So, yes - he is smiling! It started consistently at around 5 weeks. YEAH! Hopefully a laugh or two will come our way soon.

He had is first temperature and cold that made us very sad. But he appears to be doing much better now.

He went for his 2 month checkup today and weighed 12lbs 12 oz and measured 23 3/4 inches. That would be a solid 75% (same as his birth weight) Did I mention the shots? He did really well, But they still make me so anxious! :(

We look forward to the holidays and hope everybody has a great New Year too!

Zach is 1 month

So we hit the 1 month mark successfully. Zach is doing well and we are adjusting to life with two in diapers.

Sophie loves her brother and has yet to request that we return him.

Unlike his sister, Zach has some fussy periods - but not the full blown colic that Sophie had. PPHHEWWW!

Anybody considering getting pregnant - I recommend targeting a spring due date - the icky dark weather is not fun in Syracuse - you are stuck inside most of the time. BLEK!

Halloween was great since Babcia (Grandma) Morphet was up for 3 weeks from North Carolina and we had the opportunity to go trick-or-treating with Sophie. Thanks Babcia for all your help!



Life is more hectic than ever - aren't we lucky?

Looking forward to the holidays.

Happy Halloween 2006

Zach's doing great - here are some pics of Sophie and her friends.
My little monkey really loved Halloween this year, and the weather was fantastic, which made for great fun.

Enjoy!
