Update


(pretty much the cutest thing e.v.e.r.)
i LOVE being a mom.
wesson's mom to be exact...
i am so lucky.
i swear he is the best baby.
cries when he is hungry, has a messy diaper, and sometimes when we aren't home (he is a homebody for sure!)
when other people hold him sometimes he fusses, i take him and he calms right down- BEST feeling ever!
he is starting to smile right at ryan and i! and i have even made him laugh TWICE. it is the most beautiful sound i know.
he loves his carseat, as soon as the car is going he is out.
he take a pacifier like a champ.
nurses like a stud.
we seriously could not be happier...
and the best part
he sleeps 11pm-5am! oh i love every hour. sometimes we get a little longer but that is the typical.

it is hard to be away from him 4 hours every day. but i am so happy i get to leave him with ryan. i feel like there isn't anyone i would rather him be with (except me of course!) and the moment i get home i just want to be with him and cuddle him for hours. i don't take a moment with him for granted! i do feel guilty for working- i wish i didn't have to and i know one day i won't need to, but for now i do and i am willing to! i just wish i didn't feel like it makes me a "bad" mom. for heaven's sake the boy is with his dad! :)

anyway...
wesson had his two month check up on the 4th (his two month BiRtHdAY!!)
head: 15 in. 15-20%
weight:9.4 lbs 15%
length: 21.7 in. 20%
he is a little guy for sure but- he is perfect! and so so cute...

so far...
he loves ceiling fans. he laughs & smiles at them. they don't even have to be spinning.
he falls asleep everytime i take him for a walk.
i read the work & the glory to him while i nurse, he doesn't seem to mind.
we dance with him and he smiles so big. it also calms him down.
he spits up A LOT. always AFTER i change his clothes...but i still laugh when he does it!
ryan swears he loves sadie (our dog) but i refuse to let him anywhere near here---who knows what happens when i am at work :(

wesson, we love you! you have brought us a lot of happiness already. i truly believe the "valiant are saved for the latter days" i can already sense your strong spirit and pray for you everyday already! you are such a blessing to us and we love watching you grow!
time to go cuddle my baby!
