growing boy

yikes! it's been way too long without an update on baby ty!! this is my 3rd week back at work and it's really not as bad as i thought it might be. ty is growing fast!! he has been going to a home daycare just down the road from work. i think he's doing ok there. he is always smiling when i drop him off and usually sleeping when i pick him up...i suppose those are both good signs. i took him to the doctor for his 2 month check up and he is 13.4 pounds and 24 inches long. holy cow! he's been eating anywhere from 13-19 oz a day at daycare. im still holding on strong to the breastfeeding thing...im hoping i can keep up for as long as possible!!

lately ty has been blowing lots of bubbles and loves playing peek-a-boo. he does not love sleeping. mmm i take that back, he does not love sleeping in his bassinet. he will be sound asleep in my arms snoring away and the minute i set him down he wakes up. ugh. i tried bringing him into our bed and that's a little better but not much. ruddley and i both wake up a ton during the night to make sure he is ok. tonight we bought him one of those wrap things to put him in while he sleeps...so far it's working (knock on wood) and the reason i have time to sit down and write...

ty loves to smile and laugh and it makes us so happy when he does those things. i could sit and watch him laugh all day long. he's such a happy baby. im really excited that he gets to meet my aunt sue and uncle jack next month when we go to philly and then he will finally meet ruddley's family when we go to his grandfather's for thanksgiving in new york. he loves the car so im hoping the car ride won't be so bad.

i don't have much time to write...id like to get in bed quick before he wakes up. but i want to leave you with some more recent pictures! enjoy...
