2 months old!!

I can't believe Alex is now two months old! He is getting so big which makes Mommy so sad :( He now weighs 12lb 2 oz and is 23 & 3/4 in long. He is in the 50th percentile for height and weight. Alex seems to smile more and more everyday and he has started laughing out loud! He has put himself on a little schedule, usually ready for a morning nap around 9-10am for about 30 mins or so and he is always ready for bed about 8pm. He is not sleeping thru the night yet, Olivia slept thru at 6 weeks but I didn't think we would get that lucky again! He gets up around 2am and then around 5am and usually will sleep till Olivia gets up after that. He is pretty much alert the rest of the day except for occasional cat naps here and there. My kids are definitely not sleepers!! Alex is enjoying his swing, activity mat, and bouncy chair. Of course being held in Mommy's arms is his favorite spot! He also still loves being naked and taking a bath!! He is still very sweet and the best little cuddler, definitely a shoulder baby like Olivia was! Alex is starting to watch Olivia more and he seems to get a little excited when he sees her. He will be taking his first vacation to St. Augustine Florida this week for the 4th of July!!

Baptism

Alex was baptized on Saturday June 7th at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. He wore his great Pap Cole's handmade christening gown which is now 89 years old! It has been worn by almost all family members over the decades including Grammy, Mommy, Auntie, and Olivia! He was perfect during the ceremony, slept thru most of it. I think he had more water put on his head then he gets during a bath, but he didn't mind it at all! The ceremony was very nice and there were four other boys being baptized along with him. We had a small family lunch at our house afterwards and it was a very special day for Alex!

Funnybone!

What is so funny Alex?? He loves Olivia's bean bag so that will definitely be on his Christmas list from Santa this year, of course one that is not pink! Everytime he sits in it, he just smiles and laughs! Must be something that we don't see! He makes the cutest laugh type sound, like he is doing a big gasp of air! Those dimples are getting bigger everyday, yay!!!
