Edit: Oops! I misread your post and thought you said he was eating every 2 hours *at night*. Sorry about that :blush. I changed my reply below to reflect what you actually asked.
I think eating every 2 hours during the day is totally normal at that age - especially b/c he's only eating twice during the night. If you wanted to try stretching it to every 3 hours you could probably work up to that slowly over the next two weeks (going 2.5 hours then to 3 hours) but his tummy might not be big enough to take that many ounces at once - the fact that he spit up a bit after taking more than normal is an indication he was overfilled.
Generally speaking, I don't think it's a good idea to try to convince babies to take bigger bottles b/c it interferes with them listening to their own full/hungry signals (and knowing how own signals for being hungry or full instead of an exterior schedule is really important for healthy eating throughout life). Just a thought...
