My son is a pollywog.
I'm looking at his little (ha!) tummy and, next to Buddha, it is the most round stomach I have ever seen on a human being. Put that together with his chubby, bent legs... and I've got myself a baby frog.
In terms of development, BMax and I went to Granny's work this afternoon for an early 2-month weight check. Want to hear the results?
Weight: 14 lbs., 7 oz. (95th percentile)
Length: 24.25 in. (90th percentile)
Head Circumference: 16.75 in. (95th percentile)
Any worries that I had about him being on-track for growth are now pretty much obliterated!
He has his official 2-month Well Child appointment on 3/3, so we'll see what the tally is then. Poor guy has to get his first round of shots. I'm not entirely sure he's going to take it so well, even if I'm feeding him while its going on; he notices (and is bothered) when I pick something out of his hair while I'm feeding him... so I think he's going to notice getting jabbed in the thigh three seperate times. I'm sorry, but an infant doesn't understand "I know this is going to hurt, but it prevents whooping cough!"
I'm thinking about having one blog post a week be a recipe of some kind... something that I have either tried (complete with the results/reactions afterwards), or something that I plan to try that week (with the results/reactions to follow later in the week). What say you?

i would wait until just after the shots to breastfeed him, so he won't think it's the milk that's causing all that pain!
ReplyDeleteand i can't BELIEVE how big he is. Marcus is only 9 lbs heavier, and he's a year and a half!
He's a tank. Eli was right around that percentile to though so I guess I can't say much. He sure is cute. I love the idea of a recipe post. I am always on the look out for good and hopefully easy recipes. I would hope that whoever is giving the shots will try to do at least 2 at the same time. I am pretty sure when our kids got the shots they did them at the same time, can't remember for sure though. Give him some baby tylenol before the drs appt.
