Eighteen years from now...

...I hope a little part of his heart still belongs to me...

Big smiles for Daddy

Blue Eyes!

Two months

We went to see the pediatrician Tuesday for Daniel's two month check-up. He weighed 12 lbs 4 ozs and was 23.5 inches long. He was in the 75th percentile for height, weight, and head circumference. These pictures were taken just before we loaded into the car.

They acknowledge each other's existence!

Up until this morning, Daniel and Missy have not really acknowledged that the other exists. Normally, Missy will turn the other way or remove herself from any situation where Daniel is involved. This a.m., however, Missy came over and sniffed Daniel's feet while he was playing on the playmat. Then, while I was getting ready, I brought Daniel into the bedroom, and Missy was sitting on the other side of the bed. I looked over, and Daniel looked behind him to smile at Missy! We hope they will be good friends in the future.

By the way, this week marks 7 years that we have had our sweet Missy Lou. Missy, you have brought us so much happiness through the years, and we love you!

The Cutest 7 Week Old Baby We Know

Daniel loves to be on his back - playing on his play gym or just after a diaper change on the changing table. This isn't the best position for a baby with reflux, though, so we are planning to improvise with some wedges to elevate his head. When he is not having a "reflux episode," he really is a happy baby!

How we know that enough is enough and it is time to move on to the next activity:

Cousins

Santa brought Mary Linnley and Daniel the same outfits in pink and blue. We were able to have a photo shoot last Saturday and the babies seemed to enjoy being around each other--notice they are holding hands in the above picture.

This is what happens when you let a photo session go on for too long...

Happy baby
