Milestones:

You are now looking at us and recognizing us. You know where I am in the room when I talk. You have begun to play with your hands and feet. Not yet at the same time.

You have started making sounds. Its adorable. You coo and aww and we can't even stand it! Daddy and mommy just smile and laugh. I even caught it on video so we can look back when you get older.

A Day In The Life:

You continue to nurse and do so excellently. We haven't supplemented you for over a month now. Your growing like a weed and I love it but I miss how tiny you were when born. 

At around 6-7 weeks old, you were sleeping 6-7 hour stretches through the night. I love getting a good nights sleep! You sleep most in the morning, stay up most of the afternoon and take a long nap right before supper. You normally nurse 2-3 times before hitting the sack around 11pm. Then waking up hungry around 6 am.

You are my snuggle bug. You love attention. If we are not in the room you lay quietly and coo and play with your hands. The moment you hear us, you cry for us to hold you. It's the sweetest thing ever! "I'm here, come hold me".


Your Family Loves You:

Colten, your oldest brother, adores you! He holds you and babysits you in the afternoons and on the weekends when I need to do housework. He loves showing you his basketball, football games from his cell phone and absolutely just loves holding you.

Tyler isn't really sure what to think about you. Tyler is usually in his own world. Occasionally, Tyler wants to hold you but not too often. Mommy thinks its because you are so small still that he is afraid of dropping you or hurting you. I'm sure when you get bigger he will snuggle you too.

Morgan is not jealous of you by any means BUT she does crave my attention more than usual. She doesn't yet understand that you are tiny and I have to give you special attention. She does try to help out sometimes by giving you your binky back when it falls out of your mouth. I think its cute. You don't like it much though. She hasn't quite figured out how it fits in your mouth.

Daddy is your #1 fan. He changes your diapers for mommy. He holds you so I can cook supper. You two normally fall asleep asleep together on the couch. Mommy loves seeing her boys snuggle together.


Note From Mom:

Ryker, you are getting so big! I can't believe how much you've grown in this past 2 months. I love you! I've had the pleasure of staying home with you all of your second month as well. I couldn't be more blessed to be able to do so. I am looking at you staring at me. What are you thinking? Does it matter? YOU are the cutest thing I wake up to each morning...besides your sister :) I'm looking forward to month 3!!
