Walk with Tiny Dunken

Oh hey there! I'm pretty sure April went by faster than any month ever.  I've had lots going on with a cranky sick baby, a trip to Moab, Easter, and lots of family in town so I haven't gotten on my computer in weeks.

I was looking through all my photos of Dunken to print some off and send my grandma and came across a few that I never posted about.  Also can I just say I got a little heart ache seeing how tiny Dunken used to be.  I know he is still small now, but he seems huge compared to when he was first born :(.  Now I know why people keep having babies, because there have been a few days and nights where I've thought maybe one baby is enough, but they grow too fast!
Dunken's first walk outside when he was still extra tiny and slept through everything.  Lately he has forgotten how to nap unless I'm holding him.  I have already spoiled my baby rotten.

Gummy Smiles

That little face smiling so big at his daddy just might be the cutest thing I have ever seen.

One and Two Months

one and a half months old
two months:
We had Dunken's two month doctor's appointment yesterday.  He weighs 11 pounds 4 ounces! He is in the 25th percentile for weight, his head circumference is in the 92nd percentile, and his height is in the 75th percentile.  He smiles all the time and has recently started to make coo noises and little laughs instead of just baby grunts.  He is happiest in the mornings and has started to sleep a little longer during the night.  Usually around 11 to 4, and after that he wakes up pretty often, it just depends on the night, but I'm grateful that most nights I get about a 4 hour stretch of sleep to start the night instead of just two hours at a time.  His neck and legs seem so strong.  He does a good job lifting his head and can almost push himself off my lap when he kicks me in the stomach.

A Note from Dunken

Oh Hey, 
Little Dunken here, looking cute and wiggling my tiny toes.  Since pretty much this entire blog has turned into posts about me, and how cute I am, I thought I would personally introduce myself.  As you know I'm Dunken James.  Dunken is my Mama's maiden name, and James is her favorite uncle.  I just turned two months old and I'm getting nice and chubby.  Other babies call me fat, but I don't mind.  I have the cutest cheeks for miles.  Everyone tells me so.

I spend my days pooping, eating, and hanging out with my mama.  I'm a real night owl and love to wake Mama in the middle of the night, but I'm happiest bright and early in the morning.  My favorite things to do are taking naps with my daddy and sucking on my binkie.  I hate diaper changes and especially hate bath time.  But I do like how fuzzy my hair stays after baths, especially because Mama thinks this is when I'm cutest.  Car rides make me sleepy and when I'm carried in my mama's back pack contraption I fall asleep every time.

If you need me I'll be hanging out on my boppy.  Until next time.

At the park with my boys

Spring has been trying to make an appearance here for the past few weeks, but most days winter wins the fight.  On one of the nicer days Jensen and I took Dunken on a walk and on his first trip to the playground.  He even rode down the slide with his dad :).  I'm excited for warmer weather to come and stay so I can play outside more with Dunken.  I'm getting a little tired of being cooped up inside most days.
