McCord is Two Months Old

... and smiling up a storm!
In this photo, McCord is dressed in hand-me-downs that used to be his Daddy's.  From the adorable romper to the shoes, he looks pretty pleased with himself!  Thank you GeeGee for saving these and sharing them with us!



Here's McCord with his maple at 2 months

... and some noteworthy things about being 2 months old:

  • For the past couple of nights, McCord has slept for 8 hour stretches!  We're so proud (and rested!)

  • His stubborn umbilical cord fell off at 6 weeks and we were finally able to give him a real bath - and he loves it!

  • McCord has been on a couple of road trips already - to Lexington and Aiken to visit family.  Fortunately slept while traveling to both places
  • At his 2 month appointment, McCord measured in at 24 inches long (90th percentile!) and 11 lbs. 10 oz. (50th percentile)

  • McCord has recently discovered his vocal cords and has started having "conversations" with us - sometimes they last for 10 minutes and go something like this
McCord: Umm, mah mah wa wa!

Bo & Sara: Really?!!  I don't believe it!

McCord: Wa wa wa, mah! Bah bah wa wa ha?

Bo & Sara: Hum, I'm not sure about that. 

McCord: Wah, wah wah. { long pause } Mah!!!!

Bo & Sara: Tell me more...

McCord: Ummm, mah mah mah wa bah bah!

Bo & Sara: quickly scramble to grab the flip video to capture all of this so we can send it to the grandparents.  Then...

McCord: { Silence }

We love you more than you will ever know, McCord, and are so happy with our little family of three!
