2 months/9 weeks

Rhett turned 2 months old on February 22. I cannot believe it's already been 2 months since I had him. It seems like he's been here much longer. It's crazy how much more I love him with each passing day. I guess because we are both getting to know each other and I'm getting the hang of mommy-hood.

At his 2 month appointment he weighed 12 pounds 14 ounces, 75th percentile, and measured 24 inches long, which makes him still in the 90th percentile for height! I sure hope he stays long so he can one day tower over his average standing parents :).

I just took a few shots the other day right before waking him from a nap and right after. I haven't had much time for anything else. I had mastitis on Monday last week - awful! I won't go into details, but if you don't know what it is and are curious, google it. I had no idea what it was until I got it. The following Friday Mitchell had shoulder surgery and now Rhett has a cold. To say the least, it's been crazy and busy here at my house...at least for me. I've been taking care of both boys. Now I know what it was like to be a house wife in the 50's. No offense to anyone who does or did this...as in solely taking care of the kids and husband...but it is work! I've been cooking every meal for Mitchell and serving it to him (in between feeding and taking care of an infant). BTW, this is something I NEVER do normally. I'm glad to help out because Mitchell physically cannot do this stuff without help, but I have a new respect for those moms who do/did what I've been doing for their entire marriages. (Thanks Mom!) I'd say I'm most definitely more of the "modern" woman versus the "traditional". Anyone who knows me well would most likely agree. Haha!





Oh and thanks to JoJo for the cute little onesie Rhett is sporting.
