The past week or so Xander has really found his voice. He went from being a realtively quiet baby who only really made noise when he was hungry, to being a VERY outspoken little man! Xander has a wide vocal range including, cooing, ga's, goo's, and he even seems to purr like a kitten! haha He likes to have conversations with Daddy and Mommy. He'll lay on the couch or sitting on Daddy's lap (which he loves! He sits just like a big boy, it's adorable!) and just talk and talk and talk to us. It's so amazing, he has so much to say! We practice having conversations with him and he loves it. We talk and he goos and purrs and goes on and on. He also has taken to letting us know when he's not happy with what he's doing or wants to change positions. We rotate him between the Swing, his car seat (he likes that chair, ofcourse he doesn't like at all the nice chair great-grandma got for him that vibrates), laying on the couch with mommy and daddy, or sitting on the couch like a big boy. Once he has decided he is done with his current activity mommy and daddy wonder around moving him from place to place trying to figure out what location please's him next, and if we don't figure it out fast enough, boy does he let us know! He has a very specific hungry noise, so we always know when that's what he wants, and you would too if you heard it. Sometimes I think, he thinks he'll starve and we'll never feed him again because we can't get that bottle in his little mouth fast enough! Lately in the evening's he's gotten alot fussier because he is tired after a long day at work with mommy and can't decide what he wants. So Mommy discovered that a bath always does the trick! He LOVES the bath and is always relaxed after. Yesterday he was very fussy and didn't like a thing so I gave him a bath and afterward he sat in his carseat and talked to us for almost an hour before he ate and went to bed. We also experienced several big smiles and laugh's this week. Mommy loved his smile's but it was obvious in the beginning they were just gas, but now we got the real thing! He gives us huge smiles, although we've yet to capture one on camera : ( The other day while on his changing table he had his first laugh, Mommy was changing him and we we're talking and I was showing him the big pooh bear on the new diaper I was about to put on him and suddenly he gave me the biggest smile and laugh! I called Chris in right away and we just stared at him and talked to him while he smiled and laughed at us, it was great!
Lastly, I want to thank everyone for all the amazing clothes that have been given to us, his dresser and closet is overflowing! But please no more newborn or 0-3 months sizes. He has grown so much he's about to have to switch to 3-6 months in the next couple weeks. He has so many adorable outfits Mommy has been trying to put him in a different one everyday and take pictures. We can't believe how fast he has grown! He went from all of his clothes being giant on him at birth to filling out all his clothes very well now, only 2 months later! I worry he won't get to wear everything before he moves up in size and there are a few smaller outfits he never got to wear that now he just won't fit in. Mostly it's the long sleeve, long pants outfits, because it has been, and still is, just too warm for him to wear stuff like that. Since he sleeps swaddled in his miracle blankets he can't sleep in anything but a onsie or he wakes up because he's too hot.
