2 month update!

my boys are 2 months old!!
everyone says they cant believe how fast time goes.. and now i totally understand!
Its really amazing how fast babies grow up right before your eyes.

In the second month there was alot of change. You both started to become so alert and stay up longer in the day. around 6 weeks we started to get real smiles back at us! They are so cute and melt me everytime. You also are talking to us a bit and its awesome to hear your noises. You both have shown me your awesome vocals when your hungry and mommas not fast enough. Its usually when you are both hungry at the same time and then i feel like a chicken with my head cut off. 

As for tummy time.. Jack you dont mind it for a bit. you can turn your head to each side and lift it for a short amount of time. 
James you dont really like tummy time at all..hah you usually just plant your face right on the floor lol so i have to flip you on your back...
I need to do more tummy time.

Stats!
Jack 9 pounds 13 ounces
up from 7 pound 5 at 1 month
 6 pounds 2 ounces at birth!

James 9 pounds 8 ounces
up from 7 pound 3 at 1 month
5 pounds 14 ounces at birth!

Clothes
You are both offically just in 0-3 months
you stopped wearing newborn a week before your 2 month bday

You both moved up to size 1 diapers around 5 weeks 

Eating
You both eat every 3 hours sometimes seems closer to 2 hours some days
You drink anywhere from 2 - 4 ounces of formula
Jack your almost always 4 ounces James seems to eat less..
You will nurse anywhere from 2 mins to 15 mins..
So sometimes you are satisfied with just that
(Jack decent at latching now, James still needs work sometimes)

Sleeptime!
We have been putting you to bed at 7:30 for almost a month now..
We feed you around 6:45- 7 pm in the bedroom with lights out
you guys never cry when we put you down because we know youre tired!!
We would have to go in a few times to replace a soother or re swaddle and then you were both passed out within 45 mins.
WELL last night was the first night we didnt have to go in at all!! You both feel right asleep :) (my routine is paying off)
This is your longest stretch at night you will usually sleep until 12-1am
& then after that its every 3 hours on the dot! haha
So i usually go to bed around 9
You both still love to be swaddled

PLAY
You just recently started to hit your toys on your rocking seats! so cute watching you focus and try so hard!

I cant wait for what this next month of growth brings!
