The "firsts" for Drake have only begun...

Drake continues to get cuter and cuter each day. He is full of smiles and has become quite the cooer too. I just love hearing him say "Oh" and he is starting to say "Ah Goo." His smiles can light up any room and he is even starting to laugh. Drake's favorite thing to do is lay on the floor punching and kicking. (The same thing he did in mommy's tummy all those months.

Drake discovered his hands a couple of weeks ago. It's amazing how fascinated he is with them. He spends so much time staring at them... he tries stuffing them in his mouth...sometimes both at once!



Drake had his 2 month check up with Dr Andrea and everything looked great. His weight was 11 lbs 13 oz and his height was 23 1/4 inches long. He is in the 50th percentile for both. Dr Andrea commented that he was just the perfect baby... Of course, we already knew that! He had to get 3 shots and boy was that hard to watch. We had him giggling in no time though!

I had to go back to work this week; these past 10 weeks went by way too quickly. Drake is going to daycare at Crossroads. I was proud of myself for not crying when I dropped him off for the first time. When I got to work my mom gave me a picture of Drake in a frame that said "I love my mommy" and Geoff and Jill gave me the "Child of My Heart Willowtree." That's when I lost it. Thank goodness I only have to be away from him for 4 hours.

Bryce and I continue to thank God for our precious miracle. We are sooo blessed!
