I am beginning to sound like a broken record with all the days that we have been housebound, but we are yet again stuck inside for a couple days due to this nasty horrible winter weather! (Can you tell that I am ready for spring?)
First, I have completed Andrew's 2 month video:
I can't believe HOW FAST time flies, especially with the second baby! He is over 2 months old-where did the past couple months go? Andrew must know that he is a second child with a very active, energetic older brother. He is a sweet and happy love bug. He is very generous with his smiles and I think there is some possible dimples there, just like his older brother!
Andrew continues to LOVE his swing (or maybe I love it so much because it is so easy to put him in there to nap while Aiden is running around like a maniac). He also loves to sit in his bouncer, play on his mat, watch his mobile, and just hanging out. You can put him anywhere and he is content, which is good because he is usually carried around to wherever Aiden is playing! His favorite place continues to be in Mommy and Daddy's arms, although he is starting to like being head facing outwards to see what is going on versus nestled like a newborn.
One thing he does not like is his bath. Let's hope that he starts to find a love for it soon, because his mommy can't take those piercing screams much longer! He gets the quickest baths that a baby can take, just so I can get him snugly dressed and cuddle with him.
Andrew has finally found another pacifier he will take besides the big, green Soothie. After many options, he took a liking to the Avent pacifiers. Although I don't think he has the strong attachment like his big brother has still!!! Andrew continues to feed and sleep well for a 2 month old, although I am looking forward to some longer stretches at night hopefully within the next several months!
Andrew is often amidst Aiden's playtime. He hears many verses of Wheels on the Bus, listens to Go Dog Go! several times a day, and has a play cell phone by his ear-all thanks to Aiden! When I find quiet free time with just Andrew, he enjoys being read stories to, tolerates his tummy time, and being in the baby carrier!
This month, we have been at home a lot due to the weekly bouts of horrible weather. He enjoyed meeting his new cousin, Tal, and it will be so much fun to watch these two boys grow up so close in age!
And we couldn't escape this post without a picture of Aiden:
Our little boy has definitely hit the "twos"! Everything he does is with so much intensity!!!! It makes for some very interesting, exhausting, and crazy days:)

I enjoyed the video and the photo of Aiden. Thanks so much. Oh, by the way -- spring will come one of these months.
I'm a lucky grandma- two beautiful grandsons and a wonderful daughter-in-law who keeps up the blog! We miss you all. Thanks Julie!
