2 Months

Chance is 2 months old! The time is flying and he is growing by the second! We had our much anticipated doctor's visit and the results were: Head 62% Weight 60% and Height 95%. I have no idea where he is getting that height from... I expect it will slow down. Chance is doing awesome. Growing well. No problems. I couldn't be happier. I am sure that we will have trials this winter with sickness and what not but I am sure thankful that he is healthy and happy.

What look?

Whenever people post pictures of their children I always think "you can tell that's their kid." It's not something I can always put my finger on but I can just see the resemblance. Even when it's a baby. You can already tell that the baby belongs to that family. 

Of course, since before I even got married, and especially after, I have been wondering what my kids would look like. If they would have any of my traits and if so, which ones? 

Now that I have a baby, I honestly have no idea if Chance looks anything like me and Travis. Can people tell he is our kid? And if so, how? I know some of his traits (like the cleft chin) are not from me or Travis but have skipped generations. Maybe I am just too close to the situation to really see it. What look does Chance have???

If he looks at all like me I will take that as a compliment because I think this kid is pretty darn cute!! 

Progress

Here is a little update, more for my records because I am the only one who really cares haha but I have some updates pics

Image
Here is me at 7 weeks after having Chance. Ignore how ornery I am and also the mess haha 

Image

Here is me at 8 weeks. Fitting into some pre prego jeans and pretty excited!! I have 10 more pounds to go and I am ahead of Travis now! 

Also, I forgot to mention in my last post that I have not breast fed at all for some various reasons. I wish I had the easy weight loss haha but I guess this way, all of my loss will be legit!
