8 Weeks!

Wow...I think I say this every time I post, but time really is flying.  Griffin is 8 weeks old!  How in the world is that possible?!  He's smiling all the time now.  If your camera shutter is fast enough you can get a great picture of his adorable little grin.  I've been lucky enough, and really just taken enough pics with my phone to snap a few, in spite of the shutter not being very fast.  I keep telling Matthew a camera upgrade may be in order. 

He's also been giggling more which is just the greatest sound!  He really is such a happy baby.  Aside from getting fussy when he's hungry, and let's face it, don't we all get fussy when we're hungry?!?!  :o)  He's incredibly easy going.  Now we just need to get a full night's sleep!  It's still early, he may not sleep through the night for a while, but his mommy would be SO appreciative if he decided to start that new little trick by the time I go back to work in just over a week.  I have a feeling it probably won't be the case, but a girl can dream. 

This week G and I were on our own for a couple of days.  Matthew had to go out of town overnight for work on Wednesday and Thursday.  I have to say we did pretty well!  It's been nice having M back to relieve me a little bit, but for our first overnight just the two of us, I'd call it was a success!

Next week's big event is his 2 month check up.  That means shots :o(  I am anxious to see how much the little guy has grown since our impromtu visit a couple of weeks ago.  He definitely feels much heavier!  Matthew thinks he's bordering on 12lbs now.  I just can't believe he's almost doubled his weight since birth!  He's growing like a weed! 

Until next time...here is his 8 week picture.  I told you he was a happy boy!
