Blake had his 2 month check-up yesterday. He seems to be growing quite well.
Stats
Weight: 11 lb 10 oz (50 -75%)
Length: it was somewhere between 24 and 25 inches (50%)
Head Circumference: (10%)
He also had to get two different shots as well as an oral vaccine. They gave him the oral vaccine first and he actually seemed to kind of like it. He was smiling afterwards obviously clueless as to what was about to come. Then he got the first poke and his face turned bright red and he just screamed! Breaks my heart. After his second shot was done I picked him up and he calmed down. I put him back down to get him dressed and as soon as I put him down it was like he knew where he was and was concerned about what might happen again. Smart boy!
He's been pretty congested for the past month (as have all of us). I think its from the constant change in the weather. The doctor didn't seem to be too concerned but did say that was probably the cause of his spit up incidents.
More about our boy
~ Absolutely smitten with Mommy :) He does like to stare at me and when he hears my voice he quickly turns to find me.
~ Loves his Dad and sisters too
~ Starting to do more of a social smile
~ For the past 2 weeks he's been sleeping 5 - 6 hours through the night. We'll do a quick feed and he'll sleep another 4 or 5 hours. LOVE THIS!
~ He's been sleeping in his room since about 6 weeks.
~ Prefers to sleep on his tummy but lately he's also fine with sleeping on his back.
~ Takes a pacifier (unlike our girls)
~ Went through a major growth spurt at 7 weeks of age. He wanted to sleep constantly. He was only awake long enough to eat and then was right back to sleep.
~ The next week he was eating every 2 hours!
~ Loves watching the ceiling fan
~ Starting to coo. Allie swears he can say, "hi" and "I cold" lol
~ Soaks through the front of his pj's almost every night

Regarding the soaking, are you pushing his penis down when you put his diapers on? That always worked for us and we never had leaks.
SO CUTE!!!
Oh Blake, you are getting so big. You sure have grown. He should be growing as much sleep he was getting. Good boy !
Yes, we are pushing it down, Charity. That was one of the biggest and most helpful tips we got from other Mom's with boys. I guess he just pees a lot!!
He sure isn't happy in the first
pic, that's how needles make me feel too. He looks so different in
just a month.
He's such a big boy!! He's getting so old so fast :( Can't wait to see you guys at Christmas! love you
