I'm two months old!

This is the first photo where I think he looks somewhat like me

Weight: 11lbs 4 oz
Favorite Toy: A bouncer - he is becoming more able to entertain himself. This has been a lifesaver for us - beig able to put him down. He still prefers to be held but does pretty good in a bouncer. When we were in Tucson - Auntie Kim an Uncle Brian let us use their bouncer which had lights and noise that worked when he kicked his feet. He really enjoyed that!
Favorite Activity: Having someone sing to him. Current favorite is "blue bird." I love theatrics song was sung to babies as far back as my great Grandma Hansen. 
Milestone: Mimicing facial expressions. In the morning he is super smiley. I started to realize he was coping my expression so I tried sticking my tongue out and so did he! This is my favorite part of our day! Also - all in the last month he has been to New York, Maui, Las Vegas, and Tucson. Been on 6 airplanes with the longest flight being 11 hours. Slept in  6 different beds. Played in 3 different bouncers.  Met countless relatives and friends. Attended 1 wedding. Been in 4 different taxis (which was a HUGE fear of mine. Who this ahead of time about how car seats work in cabs?!) He is a champ! Grandma Wheeland (Christine) keeps saying that he is an amazing baby in public (and has his meltdowns in private (which I guess is the way I would want it to be!)
Dislikes: When he doesn't get his way - right away. As you know we have done A LOT of traveling lately and when he gets hungry he wants to eat NOW! On the plane this happened and I was looking for the last bottle of pumped milk that I had in my bag... When I finally found it and put it to his lips he immediately shut up - and I heard giggles from the passengers on the plane. He always does this! He seems inconsolable and then he will stop just like that! 


The way he is looking at Chris melts my heart!


we were trying so hard to get a smile for this month!


This is the way he looks at me all the time.  I call this the "i can't believe you are my mom" look.  I imagine this look will get worse as he gets older! :)

Both the girls were very interested in our photo shoot this month
