All About Pierce

I cannot believe my baby boy is already 2 months old! It is going even faster the second time around!!!!



Crash is a SAINT! Both boys put up with a lot from their crazy mother...LOL!


Having a good sleep in momma's bed!

This post is all about my baby boy. He is so sweet. I was worried about bonding with him when I was pregnant. I didn't know what it would be like with two children, one of them being a boy. None of those worries came true. It was so easy to bond with him and I fell head over heals in love the second he came out! I am glad I had those worries honestly because it makes this time even sweeter and I appreciate my feelings so much more! He is SUCH a sweet boy! I am so crazy about him. I am proud to announce that he is A MOMMA's BOY!!!!! I always thought Saffryn was a "mom snob" as Dan likes to call it. But Pierce is blowing her out of the water. He is a MOM. SNOB.!!!! And i love it I love it I LOVE IT!

This big boy is only 2 months old! hahah ;)

The first several weeks with him was so great. I had a lot of help with Saffryn so I got to spend so much time with him. I basically held him non-stop! I just couldn't get enough cuddle time. I was kind of a baby hog! He even slept with us (gasp...I know)! Honestly this time around I just didn't care. I know how fast it goes. I know that he will grow up and sleep (or scream as his sister does...LOL) in his crib. So I am more laid back about things with him. I am using more intuition and less "books" with him. If I think he is hungry I feed him, if he wants to be held I hold him.... I don't worry about how long it has been or if he is using it for comfort...etc etc. I really am NOT WORRIED!!! LOL. I am sure I will be kicking myself for saying all this in several months but really...I am just letting him lead a lot more than I did with Saffryn. Honestly I think we are both benefiting from it!



Pierce "talking" at 1 month!



Saffryn being a good big sister and giving him some love!
 

same blue eyes as Saffryn and Dan!
 He has already weaned himself from sleeping with us at night...after a few weeks he was restless in our bed and wanted to be in the pack "n" play next to our bed. He has slowed down how much he eats (although he is still HUGE..lol) and how much he wants to be held! So I am glad I didn't worry about those things and I just enjoyed them!

Okay Birth Stats: 8lbs 2oz 20 inches long.
month one: 12lbs 4oz 22 inches long.
Month two: 15lbs 13oz 24 inches long



I love those sweet chubby smiles!


More smiles!


Tummy time!


Saffryn giving Pierce a "hug"...LOL!

Yup its safe to say he is a growing boy! He is basically sleeping through the night. Eating every 2-4 hours depending on when he gets hungry. Hates tummy time. He wont take a pacifier or bottle (remember he is a mom snob). He is super calm and smiley! He is going to be a "gentle giant" like his daddy and uncle :) He is wearing size 2 diapers and size 3-6 month clothing! He has started cooing and trying to talk. He is trying to roll-over...not yet successful. He has my nose and face shape (I think he looks like my mom and grandpa gregersen). He has Dan's blue blue eyes and personality (or so I am guessing). His hair gets curly when it is wet. He is such a noisy sleeper..grunting! He is just perfect. I love him so much. He has single handily convinced me that I could do it all again (pregnancy, labor, postpartum)...and just to clear the record I was sure I was done at 2!!!! LOL :)
