2 months


At two months old:

Length:  24 1/2 inches (90th percentile) 
Weight: 14 pounds 1 ounce (75th percentile)
 
Avery looks like such a big guy! He's so long! But he doesn't seem as chunky as the others were. 
 
Avery wears size 0-3 month clothes but I'm sure he'd fit into 3-6 month clothes, especially the one piece outfits. 

He is wearing a size 1 diaper but I am about to switch to size 2. 

He was doing great at night.  His longest stretch was 7 hours. This past week he's been waking between 3-5 hours.  Hopefully it's just a growth spurt and he will start going longer again. 

I usually have to wake him to feed him at 7:30 before we take Cam to school. Some days he wakes up right around then on his own.   

Avery has put himself on an eat play sleep schedule, for the most part. He is usually up around 1-1.5 hours before it's time to sleep again. 

His naps are not very consistent yet. Sometimes he sleeps 3 hours and sometimes 30 minutes. 
 
He generally eats every 3 hours during the day and he nurses well. 
 
Avery is so smiley. He smiles all the time now and loves when you talk to him or smile at him. He has a little almost-laugh when he gets really excited. 
 
He has started to coo a little bit here and there, especially when you ask him questions. I've heard a mmm sound a few times as well.  
 
He likes his swing and will fall asleep in there if he's drowsy. 

Avery also does better now playing on his playmat and tolerates it for longer periods of time. 
 
Avery has rolled over a total of four times Fromm tummy to back! I even caught one on video. 
 
Avery is still doing well taking a bottle!  He drinks about 4 ounces.
 
He's a cuddle bug and so very sweet. He lays really comfortably on Nic's chest whenever Nic holds him. 
 
He still doesn't settle well in the evenings but he's doing better than he was. He gets mostly fussy when he's tired and has a hard time settling to sleep. This is usually around 8:30-9:00.   
 
Avery still likes to rock and get his tush patted (potched, as we say). And he sleeps swaddled up. 
 
His nicknames include Baby A, Aves, A and Avery A.  I call all the babes Bugga and Punka. 
 




Sweetest boy.
