Duke's 2 Month Check-Up.....

On the way to the Dr.

Duke After his shots...

We went to the Dr. yesterday and Duke is now 13.2 pounds and 23.75 inches long. Wow-he has grown so much this past few months...he is so cute! He also had to get 3 shots and he handled it like a pro-a little crying but overall he did great. The Dr. was very impressed that he can hold his head up so high and for so long-she said he is very strong and looks great and healthy. We go back at 4 months for the next check-up.

He is taking more now during the day then he was-last night we fed him at midnight and he slept till 5:45am...which is great! Rick and I are feeling pretty sleep deprived and if he can start this new pattern of 12-6am that would be great! who said sleep is overrated? I would have to disagree....haha-But our little man is worth it!

Summer is flying by and I can't believe it is almost August-wow, what a crazy time-days and weeks are going so fast...

Fun in the Sun...Well mostly Shade! :)

This morning Duke was really picking up his head and looking around during his morning "tummy time".....he held his head up for several mins, he usually only lasts a short time...he is getting so strong....very impressive....he is our super star!

We took Duke to the Baby beach today, we had a great day there...the weather was perfect! we got him down to the water and dipped his feet in...he was not too wild about the cold water at first....Our house has been so hot this week..and I think we are starting to realize that Duke is not a big fan of the heat...gosh sounds like his mommy...so he was much happy where is was cooler down by the water.

Too Cute for words......

Mat Play Time....

Our little man is starting to smile! :)

Duke is really starting to lift up his head, his neck is getting really strong.

Duke Alexander Stinson-June 5, 2009

He is finally here....Duke was born on Friday, June 5, 2009 at Saddleback Hospital at 8:13pm, he was 8 pounds 6 ounces and 21 inches long. He is the cutest thing I have ever seen. He has got a ton of brown hair and large dark blue eyes.

Rick and I are so in love with him....he is keeping up on our toes-and this month has flown by, I can't believe he is going to be 4 weeks on Friday.

He is so alert and has been since the time he was born-he loves to look around and also has started to make eye contact when you hold him. He love to eat and sleep....He has forever changed our life and we could not be more content-he makes us a family! We are so excited to watch him grow and change and look forward to the years to come...Welcome Duke!

Will post more soon...
