2 Month Stats

We have a 2 month old! Parker and I visited his doctor this morning. He was a real trooper even during all of the pokes and checks. I felt so bad for him because he had to have his clothes off during most of the visit and it is the coldest morning since he's been born! He had to have 3 vaccines - 2 shots and 1 by mouth. I still hate the scream he lets out after the shots, but he only cried for a few seconds this time, much better than last month! I had been dreading his shots all week long because last time Brad was with us so I made him help hold him! The nurse is so good though and gets them done real quick.

Here are his stats this month...

Height: 23 3/8in. - 75th Percentile

Weight: 11 pounds 12 ounces - 40th Percentile

Head: 15.5 in. - 60th Percentile

I am still so amazed at the things this little guy does - he is changing and growing everyday! It is such a fun experience to be able to stay home with him and be the first to see him master new things all the time. I take lots of pictures and videos to share with our friends and family and especially with Daddy so no one misses out on anything!

Here are some things he has been up to lately...

*Eating 5-6 ounce bottles 5-6 times/day

*Sleeping roughly 8 hours a night, gets up for a feeding and then sleeps 3 or so more hours

*Smiles after every feeding - my favorite time of day!

*Able to ride in the car 4 hours without getting out of his seat. We've been to Osborne 2 times in the past month and he has been a real trooper both trips!

*Loves napping in his swing or bouncer

*Rolls to his back every single time you place him on his belly

*Constantly moves when he is putting him self to sleep or after he wakes up in the morning - this includes kicking arms and legs, moving his head back and forth, so much that he does a complete 360 in his crib. He will lay there for a good hour doing this, cooing and making all sorts of noise, but never getting upset.

*Still scratches his face with his fingernails whenever he gets really upset - he doesn't seem to mind the mittens and I don't either now that it is starting to get cold!

*Loves being talked to, especially after he eats! He will sit and watch you talk to him and smile back at you for a long time.

*Enjoys laying on the floor on his play mat - he is really starting to recognize the colors and sounds of his toys.

*Never cries unless he is hungry. I still have the best baby ever!
