Max is 2 Months Old!

We can hardly believe it, but Max is two months old today! Time really does fly and I can't believe how big he has gotten over the last eight and a half weeks. He loves his bottle and milk so much that we have to take it away from him! We learned the hard way last Thursday night with his bedtime bottle: he really enjoys trying to finish a 9 oz bottle, but it was more than his tummy could hold and he projectile spit up (not fun). His tummy was still upset the next day, so Mommy took him to the doctor. The doctor's conclusion: he's eating too much. We had to give him Pedialite for the rest of the day to give his tummy a break.

We also started to give him rice cereal hoping that helps to fill his tummy more. However, instead of drinking it out of a bottle like any other 8 week old, my "big boy" eats with a spoon (making things even more interesting). He's still not completely sure what to do it, but surprisingly he swallows a good amount of cereal.

As much as he loves to eat, his new favorite activity is trying to sit up on his own. He does a great job at getting his neck and top of his shoulders up, but he's not quite strong enough to go all the way (thank goodness because Mommy feels like he's growing up too fast). Matt and I swear that once he's strong enough, he's just going to go straight to crawling.

He's also doing a bit better when we take him out places; he just wants to be held the whole time (we're working on getting him to like his stroller).  It seems like everyday he's learning something new and doing something different that he didn't do the day before. We can't wait to see what the next two months have to bring!
