9 Weeks Old!

Tomorrow Darryl will be a whopping 9 weeks old! On Wednesday, we went to his two month check up and he weighed 9 pounds 14 ounces (10th percentile) and was 23 inches long (25th percentile!) Darryl always loves seeing his favorite Dr. Willie, and he laughed and smiled the whole appointment...well...until he got two shots. Chris helped hold Darryl down while I huddled in the corner and looked away. He was very brave though! Luckily, he pretty much forgot that anything had happend after a few minutes.

Darryl is still quite the mover! A few weeks ago, we bought a wedge to keep in his crib to help keep him from flipping over when he sleeps (he sleeps on his tummy). Well one time we went in and he was scooting across his crib DRAGGING the wedge with him! Recently, he has been flipping over the side of the wedge back on to his tummy. Last night, he had escaped the wedge, turned diagnol, scooted to the other side of the crib, and started crying because he was hitting his head against the edge. Its pretty funny, but I bet he would be sleeping through the night more if he wasn't so mobile! He is going to be crazy to keep up with when he's big thats for sure..

We had a fun weekend! Chris and I got to be home with him a lot and we had a lot of fun. We got him this little car mat for him to play on and he loves it. It is so much to watch him grow! He is lifting his head up more and more, he is so close to laughing when he is awake, and he recently discovered his thumb! I caught him sucking on it on our way to the church nursery. Chris and I have been really tired but we are so blessed by the friends and family who have helped watch him so we can take naps.

Here are some pics from this past weekend!
