Ariv Raja Gautam - Month 2

 Happy 2 Months Ariv Raja! Time is truly a thief and you have grown so much over the past month. Not only in size but also in your interactions. You have the biggest smile and are not shy about sharing it. In the middle of the night when we come get you to feed you look up at us SO extremely happy that it just melts our hearts. You are still a sleepy little fellow and nap a lot. We love that you let us experiment where to take your nap - your Didi's crib, your crib, our bed, the playmat, walking outside. It may be my bias but I think your favorite place of all is on your mama ;) Another favorite of yours is pooping while sitting on either your Dada or Bua. Without fail 100% of the time while interacting with and sitting on them you poop - and more often than not it is such a big poop that it leaks out of your diaper. You are also a very gassy fellow and you cry so hard when you need to burp. Overall you are quieter than your sister and really only cry when you are hungry, tired or gassy. 

Over the past month - all of our visitors left so we truly have started bonding as a family of 4 and a lot has happened. You got to celebrate your first Halloween and Diwali (Hallowali according to Dada) and participate in most of our annual Harry Potter Marathon. You got your first round of wellness vaccines and handled them like a champ. You started taking baths in an actual bathtub and love them. While you are not a huge fan of tummy time you are strong and can lift your head quite high. You even graduated from your bassinet into a big boy crib! Both you and Didi also got to experience a 'first' together and witnessed a presidential election. 

The past two months have truly passed in a blink of an eye and we are so excited to see what this next month has in store for you. Keep soaring and growing baby boy, we love you.
