2 Months and Growing!

Today Matthew is 2 months old! It is also our 3 year anniversary. We were remarking this morning how much our lives have changed in the last 3 years. What a journey it has been!

Now, onto Matthew... He had his 2 month doctors appointment this morning. He weighs 12 pounds, 12 ounces. That's more than a 4.5 pounds gained since birth. No wonder my back is tired from carrying him around all day! He's grown 2.5 inches in height as well. He's in the 90th percentile for height and 75th for weight. Quite different from Adam who hovered around the 25th percentile in his early months. Matthew was diagnosed to be a healthy and happy baby. Though he doesn't sleep much during the day, he's pretty easy at night - just eating and sleeping without much fuss. So, though I am sleep deprived, I'm still functional. :)

Adam started preschool last week. He had a bit of a struggle transitioning to the classroom without mom or dad by his side. But this morning, he cried for less than a minute when I told him I was leaving and then was quickly distracted by making a project with glue. He's doing very well and is proud to be a big boy with his backpack and lunchbox. I am still struggling with the idea that my baby is off to school and getting all of us ready and out the door in the morning is definitely a family effort. I can't imagine having to do it every day since he's only going to school two days a week! He was so inspired by his first day of school that he decided he needed more time at his desk at home... hence the photo. ;)
