2 months old

Today Noah is 8 weeks old! Can't believe that the little man has been around for 2 months already!! Things are staring to happen really quickly now and we see changes in him every day.

His colic has improved a lot and he doesn't cry much anymore. He has put on lots of weight, is very alert and aware of his surrondings. He is yet not really interested in toys and instead he finds great amusement in windows, lights and the TV (which Shawn wants to ban already haha). Also, he smiles when we sing to him, especially when there is sign language along the rhymes. He tries to speak to us and makes small sounds and gets very excited when we reply back to him.

A breakthrough the other day: Noah feel asleep by himself in the sofa! Morfar (Noah's grandfather, Maria's father) sent him a comfort blanket. Its name is Bamse and is a very famous book- and cartoon character in Sweden. We have made sure that Bamse is next to Noah every time it's naptime. The other day when I put in Noah the sofa with Bamse for a nap, he started to speak to him, smiled and feel asleep. Just like that! Being used to the hourly struggles to get him down, I was AMAZED! Tonight he progressed further by pulling Bamse closer to him in bed before falling asleep.

Yes, things are certainly happening here and there is no risk that we will miss it; he has outgrown the newborn nappies and we have 'upgraded' him to the infant size, he is now officially a 'big' boy :-). See the big difference in him on the photos below.
