2 Month Checkup

Easton had his 2-month check-up on Monday. He now weighs 11 lbs 6 oz (50th percentile) and is 23 inches long (also 50th percentile). It was time for his first round of immunizations....so sad! The nurse was great and she gave him the shots in about 20 seconds. I think the first one shocked him and then the crying and tears came....tears came for mommy too! Luckily, his Aunt Am was with us and she got a little teary eyed, but remained calm. As soon as I picked Easton up he got quiet and went to sleep....rough day for a little boy. After that, he did not even act like the shots bothered him, so I was very thankful. Our Daddy is in Australia right now and we are sooooo ready for him to come home! We miss him very much and he misses us too, but he is working hard and will home next Tuesday for a while!

We are looking forward to Easton's first Thanksgiving and getting ready for Christmas! Do ya think Santa will come see him?!?!?!?!?! We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season with family and friends! Take care......

Hello Again!!!

Hey everyone!! Not much has been going on here...Easton is just growing like a weed! He is starting to smile and make cute little noises. He is so alert and still loves to be outside. We take his playmat outside and he lays on it in the yard and just loves it! He looks around and loves all the sounds. We took some Fall pictures. Some are in his overalls and some in his Halloween costume...he was a pea-in-the-pod and was just adorable. Unfortunately, we did not get many of those pics because it was hot outside and he got a little uncomfortable which tunrs into a fit!! I think he is going to be a strong-willed child...he is starting to develop his personality and it is so neat to see. His legs and arms are constantly moving it seems and he is getting pretty strong. His reflex is much better and he is a happy baby! Ben is leaving for two weeks on Tuesday and he is already missing Easton. I am sure Easton will look like a different child when Ben returns. I have posted a bunch of pics for you all to look at and enjoy!!! Take care and have a great week!


By the way, we have our two month doctor visit on November 18th. We cannot wait to see how much he has grown, but he has to start getting his immunizations which Mommy is not looking forward to, but it is just one of those things! We look forward to updating you all on our progress!

Ben & his much younger twin!!


Best Buds! T-Bone just loves Easton. When Easton wakes up from a nap, T-Bone usually hears him first and makes a b-line for his bed. If I don't immediately come, T-Bone runs to me with this look of urgency on his face...it is so funny!
