10 weeks old
Mateus continues to smile more, talk to us more, and is working on neck and trunk control. We introduced the Bumbo seat to him this week. The picture above was captured right before his head fell sideways and forward. :-)
He had his 2 month check up this past week and received his first round of shots. He was a real trooper as he briefly cried each time he felt the needle prick his leg but as soon as I picked him up he whimpered and was done. Even the nurse was surprised by his lack of drama.
Mateus now weighs 11 lbs 4 oz and is 21 3/4 inches long. Puts him around the 50th percentile for each.
We also took him to daycare just to introduce him and to meet the director. The facility seems very family friendly and it looks as though Mateus will have 3 male friends his age sharing the neighboring cribs. I still have 2 weeks to prep for his first full day there. I'm hoping that I am not the first mother to leave sobbing as I know that I can't separate from him without shedding a tear (or 10!)
Amber visited us this weekend so Mateus had his first experience exploring the Strip District and the neighborhood where Mommy and Daddy first met. He was a trooper throughout the whole day and I learned that it is possible to breast feed and change a diaper in the back of the car without anyone being the wiser.
Our task ahead is to introduce Mateus to his crib and get him (and Mom) comfortable with him sleeping in another room. I figure we'll start with naps and go from there.
