Nolan is 2 months old!

We had Nolan's 2 month check up this week and were not at all surprised to find he was on the larger size for a baby his age :) His stats are as follows:

12 pounds, 9 ounces

22 inches (although the doctor agreed that probably wasn't right - he is longer)

BIG HEAD :)

He had to get 3 shots and drink a solution - his crying was heart wrenching but he was just fine once it was all over. I forget how horrible that is for the baby and the parents :(

As for all of us, we are hanging in there. It has been a tough couple weeks with Nick's dad, but we are happy he is home and hopeful he will be able to gain some weight and get his strength back. Nick has been off for a week or so - he had a long to do list and has knocked a lot of it out :) He has also had a chance to spend more time with his dad which is something he had been wanting to do. We are ready for the holiday's and are looking forward to spending time with family and friends. We were able to go out a couple times last week without the kiddos - we had the Paulson Christmas gathering, the Kuni Christmas event with the Yee's and a holiday play and dinner with the Fetrow's, Myers' and Richardson's and we got to see Savannah in The Nutcracker.

I came down with Mastitis (AGAIN!) last week and am still battling it. I am on the antibiotics and have the fever/chills under control, but still seem to have some clogged ducts. It is the pits having this in general, but especially during the holidays :( Hopefully I will be able to kick it pretty quickly and will be back to my normal, busy self :)

Luckily, both boys are doing great and are thriving...which we are so thankful for!

Happy Holiday's,
The Bales
