Bowman: 8 Weeks

It's hard to believe 8 weeks has already gone by! You've changed so much in such a short period of time. And, WOW, how you've grown; in fact, some of your 3 month clothes are already too small!!! Your sleeping has become pretty regulated. You go down for the night between 9 & 9:30 pm, wake at 1 am to eat, and wake again at 4am. You're usually ready to be up at 6 am, but don't seem to mind snuggling with mommy in bed for another hour. You can definitely sleep through anything...I think having a 2-year-old brother helps with that! The big transition this week was moving you from our room to your own...and you did it with no problems. Though you're still sleeping in your bassinet, you don't seem to mind these new surroundings at all...much to mommy and daddy's delight!
You got to meet your Aunt Leslie this week, and weren't afraid to show her all the funny faces you make. You are a very cuddly baby; you love to be held but also don't mind hanging out in your swing. In fact, you are pretty agreeable wherever you are...unless it's time to eat! Then, you have a one-track mind and aren't happy until you're getting some food. Bottles are still a struggle, but you and daddy are working on that. He gives you your "after dinner meal" and you have become a little more agreeable with it.

You are one chatty baby! When you are awake, you coo almost non-stop! I have a feeling you will be much like your older brother...talking will become one of your favorite activities. It melts my heart to hear the little noises you make, and I know it will only be a matter of time before those noises begin to sound like consonants!
You've also gotten really good at smiling. You have the cutest dimple on your left cheek (a little gift from your Aunt Leslie perhaps??) There also seems to be one on your right cheek, but I only catch glimpes of it when your smile is huge. I'm still having a hard time catching these grins on camera...but I know I'll get one soon!
Bowman, you are a very sweet baby! Daddy and I count ourselves lucky that you joined our family and seem to just "go along with the flow." It's hard to believe how quickly the time has gone by...it's days like this that I wish time would standstill.
We love You, Baby Bo!!!!!
