2 Months Young

Wes is a joy. Plain and simple. His second month of life flew by crazy fast mainly due to our trip to Utah for Aunt Kelli's wedding. Those posts are sure to come, but for now here are some pictures of our 2 month old beauty:

 We walked down to the beach the other day because the weather has been AMAZING, especially for March, and we decided this baby needed to be introduced to one of the amazing things about living here: 

the coast!

 Wes was a little camera shy with his brother, but...

 I think it's safe to say he loves the beach as much as his momma does!

 Wes is still a daddy's boy. 

While we were in UT we both struggled being away from this handsome face, so since our return they have been soaking each other up...even in the middle of the night. :)

We went to his 8-week check up this past week and even though getting shots is hard, he pulled through like a trooper!

He passed all his mile stones with flying colors:

Smiling

Holding his head steady

Putting weight on his legs

Gaining weight

Following with eyes

Recognizes mom and dad

Weight: 12 lbs 6 oz

Length: 24 inches

It's crazy to think he has gained nearly 4 pounds and grown 3 inches since he was born!

And, of course, we had to have a little photo shoot with the boy. 

He's just too cute!

 Isn't it so funny how many faces a baby can make in just a few minutes?!

We honestly can't get enough of this kid. Or his red hair. We get comments about his hair all of the time and we love it! It comes from the Monsen side, and although we're not confident that it will last, we sure are loving it while he's got it!

Brian, Thad and I both get so much joy from him each day.

Thanks for making these 2 months a couple of the best our family has known.

We love you, Baby Wes!
