Two Months!

Today, Charlotte Anne and Jensen Todd turned two months old! We celebrated by (what else?) dressing them up in their special monthly attire and taking endless amounts of pictures.



Charlotte Anne at Two Months:
9 lbs, 8 oz

Look at that beautiful smile! Charlotte has changed a lot this month. She is still so expressive and animated, but she has become much calmer and seems to be learning the art of patience. She loves the sound of her own voice and seems to have so much to say...I can't wait to hear everything she wants to tell us. Charlotte is a happy girl who spends lots of time smiling...but she saves her biggest smiles for her favorite person in the world--her daddy. She LOVES her daddy! My mom and I joke that we have to entertain her, but all Brian has to do is sit and hold her and she will just stare up at him smiling. She is still small (at least compared to her brother!) and has earned the nickname "Peanut." 

Charlotte has had a few adventures this month. She got to come shopping one day with my mom and me, and she got to go to lunch with both her grandmas and a few of their friends. She went to the new sushi place in town that even I have not been to yet...lucky girl! Here is a picture of her on the day she went to lunch...she was sporting a flower in her hair.


And Charlotte is enjoying bath time a little more these days...she has figured out that it's not so scary and it's even a bit relaxing!



Jensen Todd at Two Months:
10 lbs, 8 oz (a week ago...I would guess he's 11 lbs by now!)


Our little chubster...look at those legs! As you can tell, Jensen quite enjoys his meals. When he eats, he resembles a shark going after its prey...it's very entertaining. Jensen continues to be laid back and sweet. He seems to be a mama's boy, which I of course love. He has recently started giving us HUGE open-mouthed smiles (since I am the world's worst photographer, I have yet to capture one on camera) and he has also found his little voice. We have discovered that Jensen loves to be outside, and during fussy times we can calm him down by just stepping into the backyard with him. He's still a total boy--he grunts and toots and pees everywhere! In the evenings, Jensen likes to go with his dad to pick up takeout dinner or chill with dad while he watches the Rangers games on TV. Here are a few pics of our little man:

Future firefighter like his Uncle Todd??

Being so cute is exhausting!

So we have another month of being parents under our belts. I can't say that it's easy...it's actually nothing short of exhausting. Free time is absolutely a thing of the past. I pretty much look frighteningly bad every day (hey, at least Charlotte and Jensen look cute!).  But I continue to feel completely and totally blessed to have them. I know I am starting to sound like a broken record, but I really do fall deeper and deeper in love with these two every single day.
