Bentley is here!

Welcome to the world, Bentley Jacob Baker!
My sweet nephew was born Sunday morning, weighing in at 8lbs 5oz and 21 inches long. He is just precious and looks so much like his daddy!
My littles with their newest running buddy (and cousin!). 
We love you already, Bentley!

2 months!

Happy 2 months, sweet Baker!

You are the most precious little angel. So sweet. So calm. So peaceful. You are such a laid back little fella and such a delight. We sure are proud of you and are loving every minute of watching you grow.
You are getting the sweetest little personality. You smile all the time and kick your legs with excitement. You are such a happy boy!

You went to the doctor yesterday and you are getting so big! You are weighing in at 13lbs 10oz! It took your sister 4 months to be that big, haha. We just moved you to size 2 diapers, reluctantly, as I had just ordered a huge box of size 1's (thankfully, your cousin Bentley is set to arrive in the next few days so we'll be sending them his way!). You wear size 3 months or 3-6 months clothes.
2 month stats
weight: 13 lbs 10 oz (85%)
height: 23 in (57%)
head: 16 in (93%)

You are still strictly breastfed and eat every 3 hours during the day. You go to bed at 9 and usually wake up anytime between 3am - 5am to eat, before going back to bed until 7 or 8am. You love your crib and love to sleep swaddled up (although you bust out every night!). You are a great napper and take 3 big naps a day and one small nap in the evenings. You love bath time and snuggling with your daddy before bed!
You love your paci and I am convinced it has made you the easiest baby on the planet. You still never cry. And I mean never. Such a blessing you are, little man. 
Your sisters love you to pieces and Saylor has made it her job to be your care taker! She is constantly putting your paci in, covering you with her blanket and patting your back during tummy time. I can't wait to see you guys grow up together!

I'm so proud to be your mommy, Baker. You have blessed our lives in the most beautiful ways. I never knew my heart could love someone so much. You are so loved by us all. 

Happy 2 months, darling boy. Love you forever.

Tuesday Randoms

- I have jumped on the post-baby running train and am doing the couch to 5k program. The app on my iPhone makes it super easy and enjoyable! Running at the dam with a double stroller, 2 babies and an iPod makes me laugh. I'm sure I look like such a goof!
- My sweet boy is 2 months old today! We are heading to the doctor this afternoon for his check up. He is growing like a weed! He is also getting so much personality and smiles constantly. Love him. The sweet fella even smiles big in his sleep. Bless.
- We are heading to the beach this weekend for our annual beach trip with Sean's family. I am looking forward to letting the littles run around on the beach, Baker getting his first taste of salt air, and me getting a little bit of r&r (here's hoping, right!)

-Saylor absolutely loves to play outside. We got a water table to put on the deck and we visit said table atleast twice a day for play time. The trick sometimes comes when we have to leave said table and go back inside!
Happy Tuesday! Say a prayer for my little man as he is getting 6 shots at the doctor this afternoon. xo
