2 Month Update

Hello everyone! Can you believe it? Simon is two months old!  

His two month check up was early this week and of course, "he's perfect", says his doctor!  He weighed in at 10 pounds, 8 ounces and is now 23 1/2 inches long.  Major weight improvement from week 2, so momma and daddy we very happy!  Not that we care about the growth chart too much, but we think it's funny that he's in the 20th percentile for weight and 70th for height.  Needless to say, he will be getting his first basketball for Christmas, and shooting practice starts January 1st!  If that doesn't work out, we'll sign him up for pitching camp this summer, and we'll try baseball :) Obviously we have big plans for our little guy!

We're gearing up for Simon's 1st Christmas... so far this holiday season has been truly blessed for us.  Hard to imagine life without him.  He is starting to develop quite the personality... smiling and watching us all the time. Melts my heart every time he looks up and smiles at me!  It's just the best.  We've yet to capture a smile for the camera, but are working on it!  

Here are a few highlights from the last month or so.  


Out for a walk on a cool, fall day.

All dressed up for Veteran's Day!

Discovering the animals that hang from my tummy time mat.

 Simon met his Great Grandpa for the first time!

Full belly on my 1st Thanksgiving!

All dressed up for the town Christmas Parade. Santa Claus is coming to town!

Santa never saw my outfit because mom and dad bundled me up in this!  It's so cold here!
Aren't I cute? And oh so warm :)

We took a weekend trip to Cincinnati! 
Standing in front of the giant tree on Fountain Square.


 Mom, why do you always take pictures of me with these silly hats on???

 Oh, that's why... because I don't have any hair!!!

Bundled up in my car seat, midwest style.   

Daddy dressed me today! So cute!

 
My first Christmas tree! Where are all the presents?

Proud Papa :)

 2 months old today :)

Looks like I store all my fat in my belly!  All 10 pounds, 8 ounces of it! Ha ha ha!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!
