2 Months!

Harrison turned 2 months old yesterday!  I can't believe how big he has gotten and how much he has changed just in the last month!

2 months

Here are a few things about our lil' man at 2 months old...

- smiling, laughing, and cooing more and more 

- becoming more and more aware of his surroundings.  He has even started to notice Dusty walking around.

- has gotten very good at holding his head up, especially during "tummy time."

- holds onto some toys for short periods of time. 

- still enjoys eating, playing on the floor, his swing, and bathtime. 

- nights are getting better slowly, but surely. 

- discovered his hands and fingers.  He sucks on his fists, but hasn't quite figured out how to get his fingers in his mouth. 

- loves being outside, as long as he doesn't get too hot. 

- likes to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (and pretty much anything on TV).

His 2 month appointment is Friday. I can't wait to see how much he has grown since his last appointment at 2 weeks old. He will also get a series of shots :-( Hopefully he does as good a job with them as he did when he got his heel pricked.  

Harrison has experienced so many new things this last month.  First of all, I went back to work on September 12.  He has been staying with my mom 4 days a week.  She loves it, and I know he does too!  I am enjoying being back at work.  I have a great class this year!  I miss seeing him all day, every day, but I know he is in good hands!

We attempted to take him swimming for the first time, but he wasn't a fan.  I don't really blame him though, the water was COLD!  He was perfectly content just hanging out by the pool. 

He also went to his first Baylor tailgate.  Tim's work and our good friends, the McKown's, both hosted a tailgate party before the Baylor game last weekend.  He had a blast!

Yesterday, we ventured down to Houston to see Emily and Reed for the weekend.  April and JD were also there because JD's band had a gig, and Amanda stopped by for a little while too.  I'm pretty sure Harrison was just too entertained and excited to sleep.  He was pretty much up for a good 10 hours yesterday, aside from a few cat naps here and there!  He had a blast hanging out in the backyard by the pool while we ate and talked.  Needless to say, I think he wore his little self out.  He slept almost the whole way home.  He did wake up for a little while to eat, smile, and "talk" to Grams while we were at her house. 

Thanks Auntie Em and Uncle Reed for letting us me take over your house!!
