2 Months!

Sweet Haven is already 2 months old!  These past few weeks we have really settled in as a family.  We're more used to having to 2 kids, 2 schedules, 2 night-time routines, etc.   Haven has been transitioning so well!  He's made having 2 kids be a lot easier than it could it.

2 Month Highlights:
~ SMILES!!  He started smiling a few weeks ago, and they just keep getting better and bigger!  I love, love, love his gummy smiles!  He'll lock in on your your eyes and give you the best smile... melt my heart!
~ Eats 7x in 24 hours, I think around 3.5 oz each feeding.
~ Goes to bed around 7:30, gets a dream feed around 10 and then only wakes me up once where he'll quickly eat and then he wakes for the day around 7am.  Getting down to 1 night time waking has been a little difficult.  Jillian only woke for food in the middle of the night.  Period.  Haven would wake multiple times at night and not really be hungry.  I think those days are behind us... fingers crossed!  
~ BIG boy!  He weights 13.8 pds (90th percentile) and is 24.75" tall (95% percentile).  Wow.  Seems we raise giants over at the Gulbas household :)  I asked the Dr if his growth was a product of really rich milk or genetics.  He said it's almost all genetics.
~ Wears most 3-6 month clothing because he's so long.  Most 3 month clothing is too small/short and 6 months is to big.
~  Coos, kicks his legs like crazy when he's happy, and stares into your eyes when talking to him.  Enjoys being in the bumbo for shorts spurts. Loves his mobile and could stare at the toy above his changing table for hours.  He smiles almost every time he sees his changing table toy.

Here's a few pics of our handsome baby boy:
