TEC at 2 months

Tucker Ellis Cavin . 8 weeks

Tucker went for his 2 month well visit today. It's safe to say he's a healthy baby! He did cry through the entire exam but the Dr. was able to listen and see everything he needed to. He weighed in at 13 lbs. 3 oz. (90th %) and is 23'' (75th%). He is growing at a steady pace. He did get 3 shots which required much more crying but settled down when he got to eat. Imagine that! He won't be 2 months until Sunday but we are heading out of town yet again so we went ahead this week.


Matthew, Grey and I are enjoying him so much. He has started smiling ALL the time along with laughing and cooing which really melt my heart. His features are changing a little each day. He is still pretty much on his same schedule but I am desperately trying to stretch out his eating times. The size of his thighs tells me he's getting plenty of nutrition :) I'm really holding out for him to sleep all the way through the night some day soon. He pretty much sleeps from around 9 until 4-4:30. Then until 7:15ish. He sleeps really well but I'm not ready to start my day at 4 so I don't consider it "through" the night.


Sometimes I just look at Tuck's sweet little face and wonder why God chooses to give us such special gifts. It puts the terrible twos in perspective for me :) I see God's measure of grace in my two boys' faces and am so grateful for the opportunity I have been given to be their mother. I have many moments of weakness in motherhood but am constantly reminded of the grace that has been given to me and I am to pour that on my children. His strength is truly made perfect in my weakness!
