10 Weeks Old

He has the same jammies he work last Monday night.... but I promise the pictures were taken on the correct days :)





Once we put the blocks away, he got VERY smiley!






And because Michigan is playing in the national championship tonight... GO BLUE!

Two Month Baby Well Check

Colby had his two month appointment yesterday.

He weighs 10 lbs 4 oz and is 22.5 inches long... both are just above the 10th percentile.

Colby has reached all the milestones he should at two months.

The doctor was a bit concerned about him being small, but other than that, there aren't any concerns... and I really don't think that's a concern... we just make small kiddos! (Kyle was 9 lbs 4 oz and Emily was 6 lbs 14 oz at their two month visits.)

He got his shots and screamed, but calmed right down when I fed him. He was sleepy and didn't feel good the rest of the day. He did have a fever last night at bed time, so he got a little bit of Tylenol. Hopefully he's back to normal today.

Adventures in Potty Training

Last week Emily was having poop issues... as in she couldn't get it out. I talked to a nurse at our peds office a couple times throughout the week and it was thought that Emily had hemroids and constipation... on Friday I finally took her to the doctor and he said he didn't their there were any hemroids... just lots of poop backed up :(

He gave a bunch of suggestions as to how to best help Emily out. She has been wanting to poop on the potty lots (as has Kyle). We have a potty seat for the toilet that they have both been using. The doctor said that we needed to invest in a little potty... because it's easier to push out poop when your feet can touch the ground.

We haven't really been doing much as fair as potty training goes... we just let them sit on the potty when they ask. They both love the little potty and have used it lots the past couple days. We are just going to keep doing what we are doing and really not push potty training until the middle of the summer or so... but I have a feeling both kiddos might just potty training themselves.

This morning Emily woke up dry and asked to sit on the potty when I took her diaper off... she peed on the potty... and asked a couple times to sit on the potty throughout the morning... not once did she go in her diaper! The afternoon was a different story... but hey.. it's something :)



9 Weeks Old








Just for comparison... here is Emily and Kyle at 9 weeks... :)
