Back to Blog

It is true, what they say about Instagram:  

It will take over your blogging life.

It's been three and a half months since we last met and my oh my has our little Chandler grown. At SEVEN MONTHS OLD (Can you believe that?), he eats solid foods, sleeps around 13 hours every single night and naps around 3 hours every day, is still absolutely glued to his paci, is working on crawling and cutting teeth, says "dada" and is still the happiest little chubby bunny we know. 

He's such a good baby! 

 

 

I would love to say that I'm back for good, but with our moving date coming up quickly (don't worry, we're not going far), I can't promise I'll have internet right away. I'll do my best and update when possible, but until then, please feel free to follow us on Instagram (@divaqueendowler)for daily chan-stagrams!

Side-note: HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY TO ME! :D 

Our Bedtime Routine

 Now that Chandler has his bedtime routine down pat, we're all happy and rested! At 7:30pm, we give him a bath and let him splash for a minute, before greasing him up with lavender baby lotion. Then we put on his jammies and feed him a big bottle of rice and formula. When he's finished, we snuggle for just a little while longer, before laying him in his crib at 8:00pm. He goes right to sleep and doesn't wake up until 5:30am for a bottle, and then goes back down again until 7:30am, when he's up for the day. Since Jordan leaves for work around the same time Chandler wakes up to eat, it makes it really easy to get up and have the bottle ready for him before he gets too fussy.

    

TWO MONTHS OLD!

Two months have come and gone by so quickly!

At TWO MONTHS, Chandler...

Still loves his paci, and is much better at keeping it in

Takes one long nap and several cat naps during the day, 

and wakes up only twice during the night

Smiles almost all day long (even in his sleep)

Wears size one diapers and three month clothes

Weighs 11 pounds, 2 ounces

And still makes the funniest faces I've ever seen

We love you so much, Chan Doggie!

Sassy's Visit

 My mom came to visit, from Dallas! 

I hadn't seen her since September, 

so we had a lot of catching up to do 

(even though we talk almost every day on the phone). 

She held Chandler about 18 hours a day, which he loved.

Since she's a young grandma, 

we wanted to choose a more fitting name for her.

Chandler looooves his SASSY!

 (crossing my fingers that I'll look that good at her age...)

We can't wait for her to come back again soon!

Le Bebe Nursery

Baby Chandler's nursery is almost completely put together. 

We just need a few finishing touches, but here is a sneak preview:
