2 Month Check-up

Yesterday was Scott's 2-month check-up and first round of vaccinations. He weighed in at 10lbs 12oz and was 22.5in long. My doctor didn't tell me percentiles, but I looked them up--between 10 and 25 for each. His head, however is between 25 and 50 at 40cm.

And along with these stats, I bring you more pictures:

A series of Scott smiling at Daddy:

Can you tell I was wearing a necklace? I didn't remember until I laid him down... I'm surprised he wasn't more uncomfortable.
This is my favorite of his many hand positions. He's so cute!
This was actually a sad time, though. He took his vaccinations like a champ--cried for less than a minute--but he was very fussy for the rest of the night. He went in and out of restless sleep for about 8 hours. It was very hard to watch. You could tell he was in pain. The doctor did warn us that he might be fussy and have a fever because of the vaccinations, but I didn't expect this reaction. It was all over by midnight, though, and he slept his usual 4 hours.

I do love that little hands by the mouth position. Your story of the vaccine reaction makes me nervouse for my Little's. I have been postponing...

That's funny, Lily slept great for like 12 hours the night she got her first vaccinations. Maybe try some baby Tylenol right before you go to the next doctor's appointment. I love Scott's wide-eyed looks, by the way!

I'm sorry that you all had a rough night after the vaccinations.

I love the pictures of his smiles. He is so adorable.
