Graham's Two Month Fun Facts



Here are some of Graham's fun facts from his recent two-month check-up:

*Dr. Pitre was very pleased with Graham's progress and he was such a trooper when he was given his immunization shots.
*Weight: 10 pounds and 15 ounces (50th percentile)
*Height: 23 1/2 inches (75th percentile)
*Head: 15 1/4 inches (50th percentile)
*First bath in the tub after a messy blowout...ha!
*Usually sleeps 5 1/2 - 6 hours at night in his rock-n-play (still in our room)
*Does not like to have his diaper changed or to be burped
*Laughing and babbling more now than ever and much to his parents' delight
*Has been to the airport a handful of times and has taken a few road trips to Baton Rouge and Houma for some retail therapy :-)

Our long and lean baby
Graham didn't really know what to think of the water.  He was a little apprehensive at first, but later seemed content while I was bathing him.  He better get used to being in the water as I have a feeling we will be spending plenty of time at the beach in Brazil.

I really need to work on my photography skills because I never seem to snap the camera quick enough to capture his smiles.


  Jason had to go back to Brazil a few days short of Graham's two-month birthday, but fortunately for us modern technology allows Jason to keep up with Graham through our nightly video calls on Facetime.

7 Weeks Too Fast!


Here are some pictures of Graham Graham from the past seven weeks.  Graham is such a delightful little baby and his smiles melt our hearts.  Jason and I are so abundantly blessed to have this sweet, healthy baby boy in our lives.  We just wish time would stand still for a little while!
Graham has been an incredibly alert baby and totally fascinated by light since day one.
My talented sister, CC captured some great photographs of Graham and a few impromptu shots of us with Graham.
Anything to calm a crying baby in the wee hours of the morning!

Jason, Graham, his mom and grandmother--four generations of Nugents!
At 4 weeks Graham weighed 8 lbs. 12 ounces.  Jason weighs Graham with his fish scale weekly.
Poppa and Graham sharing some quality time together before Poppa left for Brazil...

I don't think I had much to do with this kid!  Graham is Jason all over again!
There's that smile!!  Have I mentioned how much I love this kid?!!
I am sure this is just the first of many more trips to the Island for these two!
