2 Month Appointment

Last Thursday we went to Conrad's 2 month appointment.  He was thirteen pounds and 24 inches long.  He is a healthy growing boy and all was well.  He got some immunizations and those dd not seem to sit well.  He vommitted a bunch in the car and then was inconsolable that night.  He has started sucking really hard on his pacifier and needs it a lot during the day - not so much at night.  Then Friday he had a bout of crying that just seemed to not be able to be resolved as well.  We aren't sure if it is more his growing tummy or if he could be teething already.  He does have two little white spots on his lower gum that could be teeth just waiting to poke though, but I am not sure if it is that or not.

Conrad is sleeping so much better now.  He sleeps from about 8 or 9 to 3am most nights now.  After that it is not as consistent.  Last night I put him in his crib for the morning and he slept 3 more hours.  I guess I will start trying his crib more and get him transitioned to that.  It seemed to bother me more than it bothered him.  I feel a little sad not having him by me, but he is only a room away.

Kris and I were going to go to Seattle this weekend and go to the Beaver game, but after talking about it more last night I decided it is just too much for Conrad.  Spending all day in the car then tailgating and then at the game, it doesn't start until 7:30 at night.  That is a long day for him to be held, in the car, not able to really sleep well and off schedule.  While he isn't super scheduled at this point he is getting more scheduled.  He has been waking at about 7 for the full day start and then cat naps and takes a 2 hour nap at 10.  His afternoons aren't as regular but that tends to be when we go out if we are going to so maybe that is why. Conrad, like me, fights going to sleep.  He doesn't want to miss anything so he fusses to get to sleep and is sensitive and wakes up easily until he is really asleep.  Anyway staying home will give me the opportunity to go visit the girls up in Portland whom I haven't seen in some time.  Hopefully they will be around for a visit before I go back to work and weekends really are all we have.

I will post pics soon, maybe tonight.  Right now I am on my new computer which I have not put any pictures on yet.  I haven't even used it until yesterday so I need to get it all set up and, imagine, haven't had a chance.

I better use the rest of this nap to get myself together...
