Two Month Update!




Well, we took Matthew for his 2 month check up. He weighs in at 14lbs 9oz, so the nursing is going well. He is in the 96th percentile for his weight...he's still in a healthy range but if he weighed much more he'd be "overweight". The pediatrician says that since it is all from breastmilk, she won't worry about it. He's 22.75 inches long which puts him at the 43rd percentile, a little below average but since he has 2 short parents and he's still in the healthy range, she isn't worried. She was thrilled to hear that he is sleeping through the night now! He has been for about 3 weeks. On average, he lets us sleep from 12-6, sometimes even longer. He did get his shots today and he took it like a trooper. Since the appointment was during the time of his midmorning nap, he right to sleep by the time we got to the car after his shots were done. He did scream like a Banshee when Nurse Peggy stuck him with 4 needles. We have to go back on Monday for one more, but the doc wanted to split them up a bit. The pics are from yesterday when we were playing between his morning naps. Mommy was doing housework and was still in her PJs, so please excuse me. We are staying close to home until the heatwave subsides, its been in the high 90s the last few days. We are skipping our walks until at least tomorrow and I'm using this time to get caught up on my scrapbooking while Matthew takes naps.
