Porter is already two months old. How can that be true?! We went to the doctor last week and he was very happy with everything. Two month stats:
Length: 22.3 in (25%)
Weight: 9lbs 10 oz (5%)
Head: 39.5 m (75%)
My scrawny little guy! He is definitely smiling at people now and his cooing is too cute! Breastfeeding continues to be a huge struggle. He does fine with it, but I'm just not a fan!
I started back to work after our Yellowstone trip. I'm pretty sure I bawl at least once a day about it, and I'm still at home with him all day. James stays home until noon and gets as much work done as he can from here while I work. Then in the afternoons I work during Porter's naps, which are usually 30 minute cat naps, so it's pretty interesting. We do a lot of bouncer time while I work and bounce the bouncer with my foot. People keep saying it will get easier as he gets older and into a schedule, but this routine is pretty stressful for me right now. He wakes up twice a night usually but his feeding time has decreased which has been nice. Porter loves bath time and being held. We love this boy!!

Here are a few more pictures of what we've been up to in Porter's second month of life both before and after Yellowstone...

 |
| Nothing better than a sleeping baby! |
 |
| He had just pooped...priceless! |
 |
| The end of May, we took our first little mini family trip down to Manti for my dear friend Holly's sealing. She and I used to work together and I set her up with her now husband (my sister-in-law's brother). It was beautiful and perfect and reminded me of what matters the very most. |
 |
| Baby acne! |
 |
| Charge!! |
 |
| I put Porter down wide awake and he fell asleep on his own. When I checked on him, this is what I found. Love him! |
 |
| I hit 100,000 miles on my car. |
 |
| I cut and colored my hair! |

 |
| Amy is my go-to for everything...babysitting, mommy advice, sanity check, everything! I love her and love that she loves Porter! |
 |
| Porter's mullet is better than ever! |
 |
| For Youth Conference, James and the youth made these monsters to take to Primary Children's hospital. This was my contribution. I love her! |
 |
| They also did a 5 mile run from the mouth of American Fork Canyon to the temple. I was so proud of James! That's a long run and his knees are terrible. |
 |
| We broke the bank at Costco getting ready for Yellowstone! |
 |
| We got to see Devin and Wyatt when they passed through Utah moving Wyatt from Washington, D.C. to the Bay Area. |
That's the cutest face on earth!
See you already know that it does get better...cause look where you are now! Sleeping through the night, eating solids, much more pleasant during the day, etc... I really do love my little buddy!
