Devin -- Week 9 (12/11/13-12/17/13)

On the day Devin turned eight weeks old, he decided to sleep through the night and has never looked back! I could not believe the first night he did not wake up from 10:15pm to almost 7:30am. Every night after that, I have just waited for the crying, but he would just keep sleeping or be calmly playing in his crib. What a great sleeper! His naps are not the best, but how could I complain, right? Devin loves to have his feet free, and whenever he seems to be getting fussy, I just free his little piggies, and that almost always gives me a great little smile. Kyler will often come to help when I change him, and this week he climbed up the changing table to kiss the top of Devin's head. I just love to see how kind Kyler is to his brother, but I do not have any illusions that this will last forever. We had our first Christmas party, where Devin enjoyed meeting new people as long as Mommy was the one holding him. He did nap a bit in the arms of others, but for the most part, he is still a very vocal Mommy's boy.

We went to the doctor's office for his two-month appointment, and I was not surprised to find out that he now weighs 14 lbs 3 oz and is 24.5 inches long. Compared to Kyler (yes, we know we shouldn't compare, but they are growing very similarly), he is about 1 lb lighter and a quarter inch taller at the same age. Of course, shots were horrible, but after a quick feeding in the office, he was fine and rode home in the car sleeping.

Brotherly love...don't mind the shadows

We might be doing a bit of business here...

...and now we just look a bit sleepy

Having fun making faces on the bed with Mommy

Such a sweet little guy

Sacked out at the Van Dyke Christmas party

Enjoying his feet free

Watching the butterflies attached to his gym

Another shadow, but what a cute face!

Tubby time!

Starting to make some waves before...

...we kick up a storm!
