Henry is 3 months old!

Henry is 3 months old! Can you believe it?? He is getting so big. He is moving out of 3-6 month clothing and into 6-9 month. He is so much bigger than Wyatt was at this age, so it is throwing off the seasons of clothes that I have. Most of the 6-9 month stuff I have is fall/winter, so I've been buying more 6-9 short-sleeve onesies. That's pretty much what he lives in these days. :)

He is a very happy baby, especially when his tummy is full. He lights up when he sees Mommy, which just makes my day. :) He's becoming quite social and smiling and observing things that go on.
When I am at work, he usually eats a lot less than if I was home. He is "reverse-cycle" feeding now - he waits till Mommy gets home! He's a good eater, and I'm so happy I've been able to breastfeed him exclusively. With Wyatt I had to start supplementing with formula when I went back to school, but now that I can control my schedule a little more, I can keep up with Henry's needs and even stockpile a little extra. I think it makes it that much sweeter this time around.

He's my little sweetie #2! :) Can't wait to watch him grow more!

Wyatt's 2nd birthday!

Wyatt started the morning of his birthday with pancakes! I decorated his chair the night before, and we hung up a "Happy Birthday" banner in the living room. He was definitely sleepy, and I'm sure he thought we were a little crazy to be singing Happy Birthday so early!

Then he played in his new sandbox from Grandma Cheri and Grandpa Monte. Fun times! :)

Later that night, we went out to Grandma Muffy and Grandpa Mark's house for dinner.

We all wore party hats...

And Wyatt had a dinosaur birthday cake!

Wyatt loves "Happy Birthday Cake!"

Then Wyatt opened presents from Grandma and Grandpa and Mommy and Daddy.

He's getting the hang of opening presents!

The next day we drove down to Iowa City to celebrate with Grandma Cheri and Grandpa Monte. He had an Cookie Monster birthday cake!

We lit the candles and started to sing "Happy Birthday..."

But before we finished Wyatt had already blown out the candles! :) Cute.

Wyatt had a very happy birthday!
