2 Months

We have a 2 month old! The fact that I'm a week late in posting this is a miracle. 

Fisher has been a MUCH happier little boy since we put him on Zantac for his acid reflux issues. Thank goodness!

Fisher's 2 month stats:

Height: 22.5" - 32%

Weight: 12.6 lbs - 66%

Head: 40 cm - 49%

He's pretty much right in line with his sister at 2 months...

Fisher tidbits:

: Lots more cooing, smiling, kicking

: He loves looking at trees - perhaps he's an outdoorsy kid like his big sister?

: New hair sproutlets coming in. Head hair is blonde, and his eyebrows are strawberry blonde. It'll be interesting to see what color Fisher ends up with.

: Thanks to the Zantac, he'll spend more time laying on his back. However, we're still sleeping in the carseat at night. 

We're currently homeless, which has made for an interesting couple of weeks. Basically, we rushed the move and moved into a home that wasn't finished. So, during our 2 week stay in our new home, there was constant construction, which wasn't conducive to our sanity as a family trying to settle in. So, we've moved out for a couple of weeks so that construction can wrap up. 

Thanks to our friends, we're bouncing from house to house until our home is finally complete. Hopefully we're back by this weekend, fingers crossed. The constant transitioning has been really rough on Eleanor, who is super confused as to where "home" is.

It just so happens that she also decided she was deathly afraid of her pack and play crib while homeless. So, we've transitioned her to a big girl bed, which translates to a long process of putting her down at night, her waking up scared in the middle of the night, and generally just terrible sleeping for everyone. We hope this hasn't scarred our great sleeper of a daughter and that she can get back into her routine when we're back in our house.

In Fisher's first 9 weeks of life, he's had 6 different homes - we are SO looking forward to being back home for good!

A pretty telling photo of my kids' distinct personalities. Eleanor: silly/party girl. Fisher: all business.

Strawberry. Not any ordinary strawberry - Andy's fancy roasted strawberry black pepper homemade ice cream. Delish!

Happy Fisher

Lots of snoozing for the little man. His favorite spot of all - his carseat.

Sister loves brother. Brother doesn't look annoyed at all.

We've had to lay with E until she falls asleep since all of this moving is confusing and scary to her. For someone that refused to snuggle and sleep with us in the past, this really is a sweet thing to witness after 2 years;)

I'm with Fisher 99% of the time, but our nanny, Laura, has helped out with him a bit lately. So grateful to have such a loving person care for our children.

On the hunt for roly poly families.

Fat and happy pre-shots at the 2 month checkup.

The fact that we get smiles from our son now is amazing... total affirmation that we're doing something right;)

While we get smiles from the little guy, he's pretty serious most of the time.

Eleanor's first visit to the Zilker Botanical Gardens. Not sure why it took us this long to get her there. Outdoors, bugs, flowers, animals, rocks, dirt - all of her favorite things. She was there for 3 hours and melted down when Laura insisted it was time for nap.

First father daughter kayak outing on Town Lake. Eleanor loved seeing the turtles, swans, and birds.

Headed to the new food trailer park post boat outing.

First Mother's Day with Fish... morning snuggles.

Sibling snuggles

Headed out to Olivia for Mother's Day brunch. Both kids well behaved the entire time. How did I score that??

Smiling for Nana!

After brunch, we headed out to Nana's house for naps and swimming. Given our current circumstances, it was the most relaxing afternoon possible. Thanks, Nana!

Ready to swim!
