2 months & Growing

The baby is now officially 2 months old as of June 20. Brenden received his first needles today. He wasn't overly impressed, but managed to get by better than I ever would. Brenden now weighs in at 11lbs 3oz and is now 58cm (23in) long. Growing like a weed it seems. He is very healthy and forturnately for us, he never had any side effects to the needles. He was a bit sore however and we had to gove him some tylenol drops to sooth him. Since that night and Wednesday part of the day, he has been fine. Cheerful most of the time and screaming when he's hungry. One thing Brenden doesn't have, is patience. If he's hungry, we have time to change him and he smiles away. But as soon as we pick him up, the crying/screaming starts up. He can't wait to get the bottle in his mouth. Once the bottle is heated and we've sat down to feed, he stops crying until he's finished, then lets out a few more cries. After that, he is soothed either by laying down on his fuzzy blanket and watching his overhead toy, or sitting in his swing, watching the environment move back and forth. Generally this puts him to sleep, but now always. At least it calms him down if he his crying.
