Mr. Smiley is 2 months old!!

OK, so I blinded him with the flash, but isn't that smile just the sweetest thing?  

You should hear him "talk"!


We went in for his 2 month appointment recently.  Raleigh is packing on the pounds and developing right on track.

He weighed 11 pounds, 4 ounces and was 23 1/4 inches long.  That's 50th %ile for both.  His big noggin' is in the 75th %ile.  Must be that big Kirkland brain :)

He got half of his first round of shots and we'll go back next month for the others.  We spread it out for Tatum and thought we might as well do the same for him.  She turned out alright!

The only thing Pruitt noted was that Raleigh likes to lean his head to his left.  This is because his neck muscles are a little tighter on that side.  No worries though, that will all straighten out as we encourage him to tilt right with strategically placed blankets when he's sleeping and in the car seat and also with some very minimal physical therapy here at home to stretch those muscles out.

He's been eating about every 3 hours, taking at least one long nap a day, and (knock on wood) sleeping through the night.  He typically goes down around 9 or 10 and will either sleep ALL THE WAY TO 7ish am or wake once for a little snack.  We were blessed with our good sleeping Tatum and it looks like we've been blessed again! 

Keep those coos and smiles coming sweet baby boy!!  We love you!
