For a while my dad was worried something was wrong with him because he hadn't ever heard him cry (rest assured, he does know how to cry, but only when he's hungry, and it's a cute cry at that). That's how incredible he is! He can sleep whenever, wherever, and is just thriving! We feel so blessed to have been given the opportunity to be parents to this amazing little soul. He has made our lives so much better!
I cannot believe how quickly James is growing! This past week he hit his 2 month mark! He is such a strong baby, and every milestone is so exciting for us. I have literally taken thousands of pictures of him already. He was holding up his head when he was two days old, rolled for the first time at four weeks old, started sleeping 6-7 hour stretches at two weeks, and started smiling at five weeks. Lately he is becoming so interactive. He recognizes voices and people, and loves smiling at his mama, daddy, and his grandma Alison. This morning he laughed for the first time and I thought my heart was going to burst.
We have been having so much fun just savoring every moment this summer. I'm LOVING being a stay at home mom, and with Mike's flexible work schedule, we've been able to spend so much time together as a family. James took his first trip at one month old when we went to Idaho Falls to visit Mike's parents, and we've stayed up in Heber at my parent's house several times already this summer. The poor baby has almost spent more nights away from home than he has in his actual crib, but he is so flexible, adaptable, and happy wherever he is.
Here are some photos from the summer so far.....
Such a cute baby! I'm glad he's so easy going for you.
