Dallin- 2 months


let's all ignore the fact that this is the first post since March and just pick up in there here and now. don't even worry about those last 5 months...

Dallin is officially 2 months old! This baby... such a sweetie pie. He is the smiliest little man and it's easy to make him smile- just hold him, change him, look at him, anything! He sleeps through the night and has been for a while now. Occasionally he wakes up but it's very rare. He sleeps a lot during the day too, usually up for an hour or two, down for an hour or two. His favorite song is Old MacDonald and he likes you to say "and on his farm he had a Dallin". If he's fussy, singing this version of the song will calm him down almost immediately. Speaking of fussy, he can be a little fussy at times. He's super gassy (and it stinks!) and when his tummy hurts, he's definitely fussy. He also strongly dislikes the carseat, we know this because he is not just fussy but FURIOUS when he's in it for too long. Bless his little heart that kid goes from 0 to furious in no time when he's in the car and it's an all out fit; screaming, sweating to the point of being drenched in minutes, red as a beet... it's very sad. He can be a little fussy too if he's not being held because this boy LOVES to be held. He's certainly a momma's boy right now. He eats 6 ounces about every 3-4 hours. He loves to watch people and likes the lights on his play mat. He grunts and groans and makes the sweetest little baby sounds all the time. He is a tummy sleeper and sleeps with not blanket or anything in his crib because he is so hot natured. Dallin is sweet, cuddly, and beautiful. I cannot believe we ever lived without him. Our family feels so much more complete with him in it. He is adored by all- especially his big brother- and we just feel so blessed to have him as ours. We love you Dallin!
