I need your help.

I'm trying to come up with speakers for my Rotary club meetings. My mush/brain is having big trouble coming up with more ideas! If you know someone who would be an interesting speaker, please let me know! Thanks guys!

Vaccines



Yesterday we took Sullivan for his 2 month, first round of vaccines. Horrible! It was so terrible to watch them stick him 3 different times! He was just laying there all happy and then BAM! Glad we don't have to do that again for another 2 months. He felt like poo most of yesterday, so it was not a fun day. As for his stats, he weighs 12.12 lbs and is 22.25 inches long. He's in 75 percentile for weight and 25 percentile for length. They said everything looks great and were surprised he had gained so much weight as a breastfed baby! Obviously, he takes after my side of the family cause my boy can eat!

The sleeping and eating has improved. He will typically sleep about 5 hours from 8 pm on and then another 4 after that, so we are getting more sleep. The craziest thing is he will lay in his crib awake for a long time and put himself to sleep! He was awake from 1 to 2 am last night, but eventually went to sleep. Right now he's awake in his crib too, but he's just hanging out! Works for me!

2 months!


We've made it 2 months! I can't believe how fast time is flying by! I am enjoying every day home with Sullivan and am starting the dreaded count down before returning to work! Only 3 1/2 weeks left of my maternity leave. Really sux having to give up staying home with him. Oh well. Such is life.
'
Sullivan is really starting to smile and coo at us! I'll have to try and catch a video of him doing so to post here. He's grown from 17 inches at birth to 25 inches! We haven't weighed him, but he's definitely filling out! I've started trying to get him on a better schedule to hopefully work towards sleeping through the night. currently he eats every 3 hours, so I feed him at midnight, 3:30 am-ish, and then 6 ish. I would love to get rid of that 3am feeding! we'll see how it goes. Thankfully, he doesn't cry when I put him to bed. He will fuss during some of his afternoon naps, but is pretty laid back! we are so blessed and so in love!

I'll try to be better about posting!
