Benjamin is just about too big for 0-3 month clothes. He wears certain 3-6 month outfits. I want to write a letter to baby clothes makers and ask if they can make clothes for tall, skinny babies. Why is it that the length is good, but the width is just ridiculous :) He smiles and laughs often. He still loves tummy time and has rolled over a few times. He just can't sit still! He eats well and the Zantac is helping his reflux, but he does get fussy when the reflux flares up. He loves water - showers, baths, wet wash cloths. I think he could be a fish! His coos and noises are getting more frequent and he has learned to whine. Bummer. However, it's really cute - for now. He capnaps throughout the day and sleeps pretty well at night. He loves to travel and enjoys looking around in the car.
Tomorrow is his two month check up. He is getting his first shots (we delayed vaccinations until 2 months and then spread them out over the first year. We're following Dr. Sears' vaccine schedule) tomorrow. I'm so sad for him, but I will tell him so that I can know that I fairly warned him. I'm assumming that the shot session will be harder for me than him. Also, we will find out how much more he has grown and gained. Probably a lot, since he's huge.
Just look how cute he is!

The camera is so funny!
He loves this elephant...
Oh. Hello! P.S. Can you see how his hair is growing in and getting darker on top?!
Long baby!
Started on his tummy. Then ended up on his arm....
and then on his back. All while spitting up! That's talent :)

Happy Birthday BB!!!
So adorable! Congratulations on two months, Momma! We just can't wait until we can meet Benjamin in person.
Annnd...coming from the momma whose babies CAME OUT 23" long (!!!) and oh-so-skinny, maybe you can try these (sorry the link is so stinking long...):

Love the pictures! :)
A little tip for the shots: don't leave the bandaid on too long! The longer it's on, the ouchier it is to take off.
Also, I see that Heather linked to One Step Ahead's onesie extenders. I have those if you want to try them out before buying.
So cute, Ashley! :)
he is beautiful! And I completely understand the problem with length when it comes to clothes.
He's looking great, Ashley! I had the opposite problem with Henry's clothes. He was wide enough, but too dang short! The legs and arms just flopped around empty like he was a baby squid or something.
I still cry when Henry gets shots! It's definately harder on you than it is on him.
