2 Months

Beau & his GoGo

Beau & KK

From about 2 weeks-2 months old Beau was very colicky. I didn't know anything else and assumed every newborn was that upset, that often.  (My mom had 2 very colicky kids and would've recognized it but unfortunately it hit only after she left.)

It seemed like the only time Beau wasn't crying was when he was eating. I thought other moms, with calmer babies, were just better moms.  (Horrible, erroneous thinking that, without intending any malice, someone fed me.)  In this time I scoured books like Baby Whisperer, The Happiest Baby on the Block & Becoming Baby Wise.

I was totally dumbfounded when we finally took Beau to church several months later and I witnessed all the newborns and teeny babies content in their parents arms. Anyway, if you have a colicky baby, let's talk. =)

In Beau's 2nd month of life, he met and was visited by many important people...kings, queens, presidents, noble-peace-prize recipients...just kidding but folks of equivalent nobility and value.
