Measurements: It's safe to say that Weston is a big boy! He is 14 lbs 2 oz (Hudson was 12 lbs 14 oz at 2 months) and 23.8 inches long (Hudson was 23). That's 81st percentile for height and85th percentile for weight. No wonder my arms are tired all the time from my boy who loves to be held! He has outgrown his 0-3 month clothes and is comfortable in 3 months or 3-6 month clothes.
Eats: Weston is nursing every 2-3 hours and gets very few bottles although that will change when I start working a bit more. When he does get a bottle it takes a few minutes for him to figure out how to drink it. His bottles are usually 4-5 ounces and it's hit or miss whether he will finish it. We aren't really on a schedule as to when he eats yet, I'm still just nursing on demand.
Sleeps: Weston is a good sleeper although we aren't on a nap schedule yet. But, being on a schedule would probably require us to be home a bit more than we are. It's so hard to stay home with a 2 year old that loves to be out of the house. But, I am noticing more "routine" to his sleeping so I'm sure he will fall into a schedule soon. He sleeps well at night, usually with one 6-7 hour stretch. I put him to bed around 8pm and he's usually up once or twice before getting up around 6:30 or so.
Milestones: Weston started smiling this month which is such a sweet milestone! He also is rolling from his tummy to his back if he's propped up on his elbows. But, he doesn't really like being on his tummy so we don't work on this much :)
Likes: Weston likes to be held...all the time. This can get pretty tiring for Momma but I try to remind myself that soon enough he won't want to be held so I should treasure these moments! He still likes the swing sometimes but he has to be pretty content to begin with, or asleep.
Dislikes: My littlest man does not like his carseat but usually falls asleep within a few minutes. Sadly, he isn't a big fan of the stroller either but again, it usually puts him to sleep.
Big brother update: Hudson loves his little brother! But he can be rough at times without meaning to. His hugs can turn into choke holds! He doesn't like when Weston cries and will try to calm him down by giving him the paci. Speaking of pacis, we are still trying to get rid of Hudsons. He only uses it at night or nap (although if we let him he would want it all the time). Right now it's not worth the trouble to get rid of it for sleep purposes! While Hudson still has moments of jealousy over his little brother, he is sweet most of the time and it's so sweet to see the two of them together!
