Shots and Babbles

Poor boo had to go have his 2 month shots today. Here is what he is doing now after his long, traumatic day:



Recap of 2 month appt. 

Little Bit is doing great! His dad and I have been playing the guessing game on how much he weighs for the past week (we both guessed 12.) He really hit a big growth spurt a few weeks back. His measurements were 22.75 inches long and...

drumroll please...

13 pounds of preciousness

What?! 13!

I immediately asked the dr. if that meant he was obese. She said "no, that means he is doing great!" Whew. No wonder my shoulders are in a constant state of soreness. She said he was doing wonderful and was amazed at his strength- she said he was as strong as a 6 month old (for a whopping 13 pounder, I should hope so). 

She did seem to think that he may have a little reflux though after we started describing his erratic eating behavior. She prescribed an antacid so hopefully it will help. She also said his always-having-to-be-moving was normal for little boys and may subside in the next month or so. 

Then for his poor little shots. He screamed. Jeremy cried. I didn't look. It didn't take him long to calm down though...and he smiled and cooed in the carseat all the way home. That has never happened. (I also failed to mention that he slept the whole way there). Since we have been home he has been sleeping alot. He has been a trooper!

Now for a little chat:
