Happy SECOND Month Blake (a little Belated)

Blake Rhys,
My Sweet Little Boy!


You've been in this world two whole months and it's hard to believe it! This month has been so, so busy ... since I just now realized, 3 days later. that I missed writing you a letter on the actual day.

In your second month, our lives have been ruled by Sophie's potty training ... but you, my sweet little love, are growing like a weed that just doesn't stop. You are keeping your eyes open wider and longer, that much more curious. You are looking at the world now with interest at what is going on around you. The only time, besides sleep, you seem to close your eyes is when you hear your sister running at you ... yes, at you.

Sophie loves you oh so much ... without abandon. She's always interested in where you are and what you are doing. I noticed that she is now strong enough to pick you up - she wants to pick you up ... just to love on you! Scary ... but don't worry, I'm keeping a keen eye on you both. The good news is you are just like your dad ... patient, patient, patient ... and this is extended to your sister. She is lucky to have you and you are lucky that she is your Big Sister! And someday, it won't be her picking you up ... you will be picking her up ... payback!

Amazingly, you are sleeping (usually) in 7 hour stretches overnight. I wake you at about midnight (you usually fall asleep around 9) to feed you and then, you are off to dreamworld! This mommy is so, so happy! I'm still tired but feeling at least slightly more rested.

Your biggest accomplishment this month is that you are smiling and just starting to coo. The smiles are amazing and you LOVE smiling at everyone - especially me! You stare into my eyes adoringly and I get the sweetest little smiles. It makes me fall more and more in love with you - if that is possible!

One thing we noticed in the last few days is that we think you are starting to form a tooth ... right in the front ... yes, teething at 2 months. We'll see if it comes out in month 3. Amazing huh?

Blake, you are an incredible little boy - so sweet and so loving. What life was without you, I can hardly remember. I thank God daily for you and Sophie. You are the best two kids, the best son that could have been gifted to us. How lucky I am that you are my sweet little boy - all mine!

I love you so!

Happy 2 Month Birthday Blake!

Loving you forever and ever
For always and always,

Yours,
Mommy
