Mr. Collyn is my teeny little man. He isn't as big as Alden was at this point, but he is healthy and growing. Here are some updates...
GROWTH: Weight: 9 lbs 15 oz (5th percentile) Height: 21 1/2 inches (25th percentile) Collyn is just a little guy. The doctor isn't too concerned about his size, but they will keep watching to see if he is still gaining at his 4 month check-up. Tiny guy.
EATING: We are still exclusively nursing. He doesn't want formula at all. I nurse every 2 1/2 to 3 hours and he nurses about 20 minutes at a time. I think I will try to get him to eat more now that I know he is so tiny. We are planning on starting him on some rice cereal within the next couple weeks.
CLOTHING: 0-3 Month
DIAPERS: Size 1
SLEEPING: Collyn isn't sleeping through the night yet. He goes to bed about 9:30 or 10 PM and sleeps until 12 or 1 AM. Then, sleeps until about 4:30 AM and is up about 8 AM. Sleep is getting better, though. He takes a morning nap about 10 AM until Noon. Then, a few naps here and there during the afternoon and evening.
DEVELOPMENT: Smiles all the time. I love baby smiles. He is starting to kick his legs and arms more. He laughs when you talk to him. He is reaching for toys, even if he can't grab them yet. He also loves to lay on his play mat and watch the toys above him.
I can't believe it has been 2 months already. He is such a fun little guy and he fits perfectly into our family!
our kids are almost the exsct size! emmie was 9 lbs 11 oz at 2 months and she was the same length :) we have little peanuts. he's adorable!
