11 Weeks Old

Rigdon had his 2 month checkup at the dr yesterday even though he's already 11 weeks old. He weighed in at 13.1lbs (50th percentile), 24.5 inches long (75th percentile) and head circ. was 16in (50th percentile). He also had to get 4 different shots which were no fun. The only plus side was he slept all night long. I sure wish it wasn't just a coincidence and he's ready to drop his 3-4am feeding. Only time will tell. The nurse practitioner said he's a perfect and healthy baby. Strong, attentive and very smiley. He is a super happy baby but I'm still struggling with getting him to nap well. He will sometimes go 1.5hrs but that's rare. He's more of a 30-45min napper but I know he's still tired because he will fall back to sleep in his swing. I try not to use the swing as a sleep prop but if he will get some more sleep than I will just have to use it for now. I feel like we are finally getting our groove. I'm learning to relax more and try not to be a total control freak. I don't want to get so caught up on a schedule but I know routine works best for me and for babies. I'm just learning what works for both Rig and I. I am still teaching classes at the gym but starting next week am switching from tues/fri classes to mon and wed. I am excited to change days since it was getting hard to make Fridays work. Rig got his first camo hat. It's a little big but it shouldn't take long for it to fit him just right. 

I feel like the worst mom but Rig loves the tv. He especially loves the baby channel so he gets a little tv time everyday. It works for him and I:)
