Two Months Old

Raleigh's 2 month birthday happened to fall on Father's Day.  We began celebrating Father's Day yesterday by looking at cars to replace Leanne's Explorer.  (Leanne didn't want to go, but Erik played the "Father's Day" card...)  We went out to dinner tonight (with Raleigh).  Raleigh slept the whole time (whew!)

Raleigh has become a lot more interactive in his second month.  He smiles and almost laughs.  Raleigh used to only let us know when he was hungry - now he lets us know when he's hungry, tired, bored, needs to burp, misses us, or feels however he felt at the restaurant yesterday (we still haven't figured it out!).  He also says vowels like "O" and "EH".  Today, Raleigh and Leanne had a whole conversation just saying "O" back and forth and smiling.

Raleigh's usually in a very good mood in the morning, so we play when we wake up ...at 6:30!  He likes to "march".  He also likes baths and being swaddled.  Erik often gets Raleigh to sleep by lying on the bed next to him and singing lullabies while they hold hands.

Raleigh had a lot of baby hair come in, so maybe it will fill in his male-pattern baldness soon.  Raleigh weighs about 12.5 pounds and seems pretty long.  We have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, so we'll let you know the official score then.
