Beck's Two Month Update

My little guy turned two months old! 

Beck has been doing really well since coming home from the hospital. (click here if you want to read all about it.) He is still on a preventive antibiotic and will stay on there for the time being. When we went for more testing, they found out that his left side is allowing urine to flow into his kidney. Luckily, it isn't anything to worry about and should go away with time. We are assuming he will have to go back for another test at some point. I also need to remember to call urology and inform them about it. 

Beck still has a red eyelid and his hair is still a dark brown and he still has beautiful blue eyes. He is a good combination of both his sisters. I think Beck will be the sibling that connects them all together. Meaning, people will look at the three of them and think oh ok I see how the girls are related now. I always looked identical to all three of my sisters so I have no idea what it is like to have a polar opposite looking sister. 

Beck still eats about four ounces every three hours, although I have noticed a drop in his attitude. I don't know if this is because of his antibiotics, his age, or the fact he just got shots this week. He also fusses quite a bit while eating, so he might have gas. Gosh darn it why can't these babies just tell us what is wrong? :)

Beck has also started to sleep through the night. I fed him around 9 and then he eats again around five. Ok so it only happened last night, but generally he wakes around 2:30-3ish and then again between 6-7. I don't mind this at all as long as I can go back to sleep after he eats. . . . both time. 

Beck loves being wrapped. If he is fussing, I put him in the wrap and he is asleep within seconds! TRUTH!! 

 Beck is by far the hardest baby to make smile. Most of the time he just stares at you and makes you feel like a loser. When he does smile, it is super cute! I haven't been good enough to document this occasion which should tell you how rare it is. 

I am totally in love with my little guy.

Beck is 24 inches long (83%) His weight is 12 pounds 13 ounces (55%) and his head circumference is 37.7 cm (7%). So basically he is a tall, average weight baby with a little head :)
