Anderson is 2 months old!

Today is Anderson's 2 Month Birthday! I can not believe that two months have already gone by. It has been an awesome two months.
We are just amazed at how much he has changed in the past month. Seriously, even in the last 3 weeks, Anderson has changed significantly. He is so alert and active now. We are just having a ball hanging out with him. Here are some pictures and highlights from his second month.


Bumbo Time! Anderson is holding his neck up pretty well, which means that he is old enough to hang out in the Bumbo seat. Anyone who doesn't know what this is, it is essentially a styrofoam chair that helps babies learn to sit (these were not around when we were kids!). Anderson is not really great at it just yet, but he will hang out in it for a few minutes and then loses interest fairly quickly. Here are some pictures--First having a pretty good time, and then too tired to hang out in the Bumbo any longer.




















Spa Fitzgerald-Bath time has become one of Anderson's favorite parts of the day, largely due to the spa treatments he receives. Mike is the primary bath giver for Anderson. When Anderson is put into his bath, Mike gives him a warm towel for his body and head so that he doesn't get cold while being bathed. As a result, Anderson really digs his bath time and looks really cute in the process. Here is a picture of him getting a facial and body wrap. I do his mani and pedi, which is not nearly as fun.



Jungle Time Anderson has a play mat which is a complete stimulation overload--there is krinkly stuff on the bottom, Mozart music playing, tons of animals dangling down, and a mirror. He just loves all of it! Recently, with the discovery of his arms and legs, he can spend hours a day on this mat kicking and hitting all of his animals and just taking in all of the noises. It is so much fun to see him have such a great time. Here is a video of him chilling on his jungle mat. Thanks for getting it for him Aunt Katie (Chisholm)!
