Kyle, you are 8 weeks old... and you won't stop growing! I can't wait until your 2 month check up on Thursday to see what you're measuring. Your face and legs have really filled out and you're looking more like a baby boy than a fragile infant.

| week 2 vs. week 7 - look at those cheeks! |
You're sleeping more than ever, growing boy! You'll wake up in the morning and be ready for a nap just an hour or two later. Then you'll take 2-3 more naps before dinner and 1 after dinner before we put you down for the night. This week you gave us your first 6-hour stretch of sleep, 2 nights in a row! It was the best 10:30 - 4:30 of my life :) We're back to 4 hour stretches now but we're starting to get on more of a schedule, which is nice.
Also this week, you had your first inconsolable cry for no apparent reason... at your cousin Harlow's ballet class. Your auntie was holding you outside as we watched class through the window and everything was great, and then BAM! A cry fit like I haven't seen. For 15 minutes. In public. And then you fell asleep. Oh, babies.
You are smiling and cooing like crazy, it's the cutest thing ever. And you'll stretch for a good 10 minutes at a time, a few times a day. It must feel so good to stretch all those muscles out after months of being squished up! You still don't like to be in one place at a time for very long, but you do enjoy tummy time for a few minutes every day and still like driving in the car and being outside (well, except for those 15 minutes at ballet!).

I'm excited to take your 2 month pictures with Penny on Tuesday! Also excited to take you to the doctor, but dreading your first round of shots. I think we need to take Grandma Suzie with us for support.
