Bottle strike

Dear Grayson

Please end the strike and resume all bottle feeding. I promise it will make both our lives a lot easier.

Love
Mom

2 months

Grayson turned two months last Friday. How did 62 days go by so fast? I feel like it was just yesterday, Adam and I were driving to the hospital. I still remember the nerves and excitement I was feeling that night. Grayson is a pretty happy baby except when he is hungry or tired. Some days he naps well and some days he doesnt like to nap. He's also decided that he doesnt want to nurse continuously or take a bottle so it makes feedings a little bit difficult. I hope this is just a phase and that it will pass...SOON! I love, LOVE his smiles and laughs. At his 2 month check up, he was a whopping 13 lbs 4 oz and 23.5 inches. Not sure how I am going to carry him anymore in the car seat. He is so alert now! Looking forward to all the new adventures this month is going to bring.

First church visit:

Zumba

I use to think Zumba was silly. That is until yesterday. I was looking for a class to ease back into working out and they were only offering Zumba Labor day morning. As soon as the instructor turned on the music, I knew I was in the right place. It was like I had walked in a dance party. It was good for this new mommy's soul. It was exactly what I needed. Where else can you find people of all ages (the oldest I swear was a man who was at least in his late 60s) getting down and shakin' it diiiirty? The old man, got down and dirty on the floor. Gross, yet humorous. The class was packed so I was stuck in the back making up my own moves half the time. Before I go back, I am going to YouTube some videos and learn the steps and maybe take a couple of shots to loosen up. Its been awhile since those bootay shakin' days.

In baby news, I have been fighting the pacifier and thumb sucking for awhile now. Once I found this video, I gave in. Here is Grayson, at the hospital still, sucking on his thumb. Edit that, I dont know how to upload videos here. I tried, but FAILED.

Here he is 8 weeks later:
Once last picture. This is currently my favorite picture of him:
