Well, we made it through our first Christmas with Drake. He was oh so very excited. Not really...he had no idea what was going on. We started out celebrating Christmas with the Coronado side of the family. He got to meet a lot of people he had not yet met on both sides of the family. We ended Christmas festivities about a week later with the Mays side of the family. As you can see in the pictures, by Christmas morning Drake had enough. Daddy and Mama stuffed his stockings with bottles and pacifiers. We also got him a cross for his wall and a keepsake about his birthdate. The child definitely did not need anything! He is a very loved and spoiled little boy. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and will have a safe and happy New Year!

P.S. Some of the pictures posted were requested while others are just to show everyone how big he's getting.

This is my new pouty face! Trust me, I know exactly what I'm doing.

Drake went for his 2 month check-up on Monday. He weighed 10 lbs. 8 oz, and was 21 3/4 in. His pediatrician said he was very "social" and "interactive" for only being 2 months. He did well with his shots...he got 5 in the leg and then one was oral. He really didn't cry much considering.

Update on Working Life

I returned back to work this week on Wednesday. The first day was definitely the hardest! I cried when I had to leave Drake behind at daycare, but he didn't seem to mind. The next two days were much easier. He's attending an in-home daycare with five other children. His caregiver's name is Mrs. Lin (short for Linda). He adjusted really well! I guess when you're his age you're pretty content as long as someone feeds you, changes you, and makes you comfortable to sleep. Mrs. Lin tells me everyday when I pick him up what a "good baby" he is. I really like her and she is very good with Drake.

Tomorrow, Sunday, Drake will be two months! It is so hard to believe he is already that old. Monday he goes for his two month check-up and shots. I will be sure and update my blog with his length and weight after the appointment.

More Pictures!

Drake doing "tummy time."

Here he's knocked out after a long day at daycare.

This is the first time that I braved cutting his nails. He was getting too many scratches on his face. His aunt had cut them prior to this because I was too chicken!
