Jack is 2 months old

Where has the time gone? I cannot believe we've had baby Jack 2 months already.  He just went for his two month check up.  He weighs 9 lbs. 15 oz. He is 22 1/4 inches long and his head is 15 inches around.  He is now in 0-3 month clothes and in a size 1 diaper. He is currently drinking 5 oz. of milk about every 4 hours or so. 

Jack's favorite thing is the ceiling fan.  He loves to stare at it all the time.  He is starting to smile more and track things with his eyes.  He swings every morning but doesn't like to swing at night. Today, I read Jack his first book- Pete the Cat builds a Sandwich.  He really seemed to like the pictures.

 We are so thankful to be his parents.  What a precious gift the Lord has blessed us with.  Just to think the day we received the call about him I was ready to give up and throw in the towel.  I'm so glad the Lord heard my prayers and answered them all in His timing.  I can honestly say I can look back and see His hand in everything- the waiting, heartache, desperation, and loneliness.  Was it an easy road to go on?  NO!  Is it one I want to do over- heck no!  Can I say though that He is faithful and always will be?  Yes!  Is it because we got what we longed for in the end- maybe?  I do know regardless of how I feel, God is always faithful to those that love Him.  He may not answer things in our timing, or give us everything we want, but I do know that He is always there- even when we can't feel Him.  I thank Him daily for Jack and what a blessing little Jack is in our lives.
