2 months old

I am not sure what happened to the past two months. Jack weighs in at 12 pounds 13 ounces. He's 22 inches long, which has to be incorrect since he was 22.5 at one month. I wasn't exactly paying attention at his appointment. Sleep deprivation. He really is a great baby. He's going with the flow for the most part although I'm not sure he had a choice.

I got the crazy idea to go grocery shopping with both Cameron and Jack BY MYSELF. It wasn't just a "we need bread" grocery run either. It was we need everything from diapers to bread. As I sat in the parking lot, I contemplated turning around and going home. This is why they invented McDonald's, right? No diapers...hmmm. I sat for five minutes looking at my list and debating the necessary items. Only mandatory products allowed. Then the cart debate. Cameron loves to drive the car. I could put him in the car and then put the carrier in the basket. Where will the groceries go? I decided the Austin Powers mini me baby carrier was the way to go. How in the hell does this thing even work? A lady was in the car across from me staring me down as I tried to put the carrier thing on and then tried to wedge Jack in it. I didn't feel comfortable fully letting go of Jack with one hand so I shopped and pushed a basket with one hand. One lady stopped to mention Jack had lost a sock. My response, "Ma'am, if the only casualty of the day is a sock, we're doing pretty good." We survived and managed to find the sock waiting patiently for us by the car.
