Rai 8 weeks (2 months?)

I am really not sure if 8 weeks = 2 months or not.  Rai is 8 weeks old, but he was born on April 3rd, so do we have to wait for June 3rd for him to be 2 months?  His 2 month appointment with the doctor isn't for another 2 weeks, so that doesn't help give me an answer either.
This is a goofy grin i caught on camera, he was being cheesey!


Anyways - at this point in time he is:

Growing and filling out - I won't know exactly until his appointment, but little baby rolls are coming.

Finding his voice - he makes his lips into the shape of an "o" and coos and coos sometimes, I love it

Smiling more - I have yet to get a good picture of this, because usually it happens when he is done breast feeding and it is hard to censor a picture like that.  Sometimes I can talk to him and get a smile out of him now too which is fun.  It looks like he has 2 small dimples, maybe just 1 that is really visible to those that don't stare and study his face all day long.

Struggling with naps - this might have to do mostly with Tracen.  Tracen is testing baby brother out more (he just bit him as I wrote that), or helping with a soother (binky) when he is asleep and trying to pry it into his mouth, or testing his out his 2 year old lungs during nap time.

Loves bath time - and Tracen loves to help out with this, usually resulting in all of us being soaking wet.

Loves to be swaddled and held (rocked/moved) to go to sleep.

Now to find (or take) some pictures to go with this post.
