2 month check up

All is well!! I will get pictures up asap. BUT wanted to update everyone...as of today we are 12lbs 7oz and no problems so far, other than the constant congestion; which we are told is normal and not to worry about. I am in the 71% in both height and weight and 65% in my head circumference. Don't get too excited, Luke was that big too at 2 months and we know what a whippet he is!! But, he is in the 70% height too still so that ain't too bad.
BIG NEWS...I JUST ROLLED OVER!! Mom made me do it 3 times in a row to make sure it wasn't a fluke...if she can figure out the fancy video camera she might just attempt to post it.
I am getting so big and am about to retire much of my 0-3 months and newborn clothes...good thing mom and dad didn't really buy any, it would have been a waste of money!!
Yesterday I went to a barn thing with Luke. I got stuck in the stroller and sling, but it was a pretty day and we needed out. Monday we are venturing to the Childrens' Museam at Fair Park with some friends for the big Dr. Seuss birthday bash for free. I hear it is a long way down there, so it should be an interesting trip...it will be our biggest adventure yet!
Well, I gotta go, I just wanted to let everyone know we are okay and growing and learning new things.
We'll put pictures up soon hopefully.

Hi there! It has been a long month since checking in...they are breaking me in to the new scene. I am about to go into my own room, I will keep you updated on that soon!
Let's see...main highlights:
1) I am GROWING a lot, I am over 1/2 the size of my brother...ha ha.
2) I have been on several adventures lately...most of them I sleep through, but you can look on Luke's blog to see all the stuff we did.
3 The last 2 nights I have slept 6 and 7 hours respectively...mom is totally stoked and is trying not to get TOO excited because she knows it is most likely a fluke!
4) I continue to be a GREAT baby...very tolerant of my brother's inquisitive nature and insistence on giving me a bath with mom.
5) I am starting to smile and am very ticklish so that is fun for mom and dad to watch during the few times when it is just me around...those of you that know luke, know he doesn't sleep much!!
So far this outside of the womb deal is a piece of cake! Here are a couple of the FEW pics I have to entertain you!!

my one month picture with my pillow Aunt Marcy made me....she gave luke his now famous monkey too!!!

Not quite there yet!

Hi everyone. So, we are not quite ready to have a handle on everything yet, but thought I would post some pictures of me and the crew. I just got to see more family yesterday and will load those as soon as me and Luke give mom a break!! My brother is the coolest, he calls me Zosh; which is now what the whole family calls me. I am told I am a WONDERFUL baby. I got to meet my Grandma Van Zeeland for a week and it was the best ever. She is a fantastic lady. I miss her already. My Oma has been a huge help to mom. My brother and I are tag teaming her all day long and she really gets no sleep. BUT like Luke said, at least we both get a lot of 1 on 1 time with her. She seems to think it would be better if she got some time with her, but she will be fine! Mom and Luke have taken me to some fun places...parks. Tomorrow I am supposed to get to go to a music class as well..whatever that is. Mom bought me my own new sling to ride around in, so I am sure when the weather is a bit nicer we will put that to good use. She did carry me in the sling, Luke in his wagon, and Cheddar on her leash to the park the other day. Folks looked at us strangely, but I guess that is to be expected when your mom looks really wheels off. I am told to just suck it up and get used to it.
I am starting to get the hang of this new day and night thing...I am logging more wake hours than before, which translates to more night sleep hours...which mom and dad are VERY thankful for. I really don't fuss at all unless I am hungry or tired or dirty...sounds easy enough to fix. Mom and Dad keep thinking since I am, and Luke was, so good they are in for a doozie of the next 18 years!
Here are some random pics to hold you over til mom gets more sleep and can fill you in more. What we have certainly learned is that 2nd kids don't get nearly as many photo ops as the first!!! probably the first of many shafts!!

Hello World!

After 9 long months of anticipation I finally got to meet my family. I arrived at 12:30PM today weighing in at 7lbs 10oz. My "big" brother weighed almost a pound less than me when he came around. That guy is pretty cool though - he gave me a couple of kisses and also dropped off a nice little stuffed bunny to keep me company until I get home. My Oma and Opa stopped in to see me, my Aunt Mandy was here, and so was my Uncle Troy along with my cousins Nate and Sara.


Here's a picture of me and my big brother Luke.


I'll check in with you guys later - I need to catch some shut eye!
