Today George went for his 2 month check-up. He is doing very well & has the following measurements:
25″ long (above the 100%)
36 cm head (50%)
11 lbs, 15 oz (75%)
He gave Dr. House a big smile & she said that type of smile doesn’t usually come until 4 months! He turned on the charm and was all smiles and giggles for her – she was happy to see that he was so responsive – evidence of a lot of ‘talking’ to him. He has good strength in his arms and legs…his head & neck are growing stronger every day. He is right on track….and sometimes a little ahead of it!
He had some shots today….he cried pretty hard during, but calmed down soon after with a little hug & ‘shhhing’ from mom. He is officially in 3 – 6 month clothes. I put a sleeper on him & he fit it just fine.
Milestones – he attended his first Pat McCurdy show last Thursday, he decided to pee while his diaper was off on Monday (he hit himself), and he is sleeping in his cradle for multiple hours (only getting up 1 – 2 times a night).
Mommy & Daddy are very proud & loving having him around. Things are pretty busy with mom going back to work part-time (thanks to Grandma Kleinhans for coming to watch him!), dad working on getting all the college students moved, and dad finishing his 2 grad courses. George brings much joy to us & reminds us of the important things. Eating, sleeping, staying clean & most of all – snuggle time and smiles.
