Happy Halloween!


Mason had his 2 month appointment today and he weighs a hefty 13 lbs 14 oz. This tops the charts above the 95th percentile! Korina was never that big. But she also wasn't eating close to 5 oz at each feeding. He is such a cutie though and he smiles a lot now which we really enjoy. As a bonus, this past week was awesome as far as sleep goes. Every night except one, he went between 7 and 8 hours at night. Needless to say, Colby and I are feeling much more rested as a result. He's such a good little baby! Poor little guy wasn't doing too well though after his vaccinations. That was the worst I have heard him cry and we couldn't calm him down like usual. Thankfully it passed quickly and he was back to his normal, smiling self the next day.
Korina had such a blast going trick or treating. She loved getting dressed up and she loved getting a lot of candy even more! She got 3 full size candy bars and filled up her little bucket with other treats. I was afraid she might be too scared to knock on strangers' doors, but I guess she was up for the challenge if it meant she would walk away with candy. She is her mother's daughter after all! She was definitely the cutest Minnie Mouse I have seen:


And here is our little devil for the night, even though he is totally an angel for us all the time. He looked so darn cute, I just love this little guy!

Recent Happenings


Not much is happening around here, just that it's getting easier to survive since we are getting a consistent 7 hours of sleep a night. That's the total amount, I wish it were consecutive, but he is still getting up around 3:30 to eat. Then the problem is that my mind starts thinking about things and it takes me a while to go back to sleep. Good thing he's so darn cute! Not to mention he is quite the chunk! These are a pair of pajamas that are size 3-6 month, and I'm pretty sure they shouldn't fit him that well when he is only 7 weeks old.

Korina still loves her brother like crazy too. She loves to just lay beside him and hold his hand. Or she leans over him and tries to make him laugh. She is a great big sister and a good helper for me. Mostly picking up burp cloths or putting the binky back in his mouth, but she is always happy to help. And here is a picture of when Colby did her hair. I have to say, I was pretty impressed with the result.
