2 Month Check Up

Shae had his two month check-up on Monday and it was fun to see exactly how much he's grown. He weighed in at exactly 12 lbs, measured 23 inches long, and has a head circumference of 15 3/4 inches. All three of these stats fall at exactly the 50th percentile which makes Shae as average as they come! (Or as perfect as they come, as I like to say.)

They also performed an EKG at his appointment to make sure his heart is healthy. Just a precaution because of some family heart issues. This was not an easy task on a wiggly little baby, and right after finishing up, as he was beginning to get aggitated, they finished up the appointment with his four immunization shots. This was the part that I was really dreading. Shae did better than I was anticipating, but it was so sad for me (and Joe) to watch. Shae was looking me right in the eyes during the injections and just seeing his big blue eyes fill with fear and then tears made mommy cry as well. :( But we got through it.

In other Shae news, he continues to smile like crazy and is talking and cooing more than ever. He is a very happy baby most days and we're having so much fun with him.

Here are a few pictures from this past week:


Shae found his reflection in Grandma Kathy's glasses. Doesn't he look so old with his chin propped up on his cute little hands like that? And by old I mean like 4 months :-)

Getting cold outside. Time to get out the hats.
