Two Months

I have not had a lot of opportunity to blog these days. The boys are still on a three hour schedule and I just cant seem to get them to sleep longer at night. Some nights they go 4 hours then they go back to three. They wake up at the same time still, even if they go later in their feedings. Its so funny to me, because they are sleeping in different rooms now. I had to move them because they just would not nap together, they make to much noise!

The boys are two months old now. It has gone by so fast! It amazes me how much they have grown. At their two month check up Porter Weighed 10 14oz and was 21 1/2 inches long and Tate weighed 11 lbs 1 oz and 21 3/4 inches long. They are still only three ounces apart but I swear Tate looks so much bigger to me! He must just keep those three oz in his cheeks. Porter is still my more stubborn sleeper. He gets so tired but fights it till his last breath, its so funny he cries for a while then all of a sudden he is out. Tate on the other hand is getting so good! I can tell when he is tired at his first yawn, I then wrap him up and put him down, most times he goes down with out crying but if he does cry its for about a minute.

Porter is a daddies boy. He loves Chase, its hard for me to get him to laugh but when Chase gets home he lights up, shows his dimples and literally laughs so hard. He will even put off feeding for a while just to sit with Dad. Tate is more of a feed me now kind of guy, he wants his food the minute he wakes up, will cry until he gets it then when he is done he will give you the time of day.

They are both still really gassy, but since I switched formulas it doesn't seem to hurt them as much :). Tate just got diagnosed with acid reflux. My mom came in last week to help with the boys and help us move ( that is a whole other blog post). She came at the perfect time, the boys had to get their 2 months shots, so she was there to help with that, then Tate all of a sudden started crying so hard during every feeding, he would not take the bottle and it took about 2 hours to feed him. It was the saddest thing, so we took him to the dr. got him on some medicine and he is doing much better!

2 months has gone by fast! Dane had reflux too and they put him on some zantac and it definitely helped. He outgrew it and now he's just great, a lot of babies actually have it and I'm glad you figured out the problem so soon! If you're at your new house, I'd love to come by! Let me know when you would like some company and I would love to come see you and the boys!

Oh man girl you are my hero! They are so adorable but I still am not sure how you do it. Moving and all. All my kids have had acid reflux. Medicine makes the world go round in this house. :) Glad you got that figured out. Hopefully it helps. They are so cute and do carry some chub in their cheeks! Can't wait to hear about your new house!
