Two month doctor's appointment

Grady had his two month appointment with the doctor today. This is the one where they get a lot of immunizations. I tried to explain what was going to happen to Grady before we got there, but I don't think it really sunk in until he got poked with the needle. Three times. Poor guy. He was so calm and sweet getting ready, too.



Grady weighed in at 12 pounds, 7 ounces. He's now in the 68th percentile. He was at 8 pounds 13.5 ounces at his 2 week, which was 53rd percentile. He grew 3 inches - so he's now 24 inches - 2 feet even! He went up there too from 64th to 85th percentile. And his head circumference increased 4.5 centimeters in 6 weeks to 40.5. Isn't that crazy? That kid has some brain growing in there!

He's basically been sleeping since we got home, with one huge screaming bout in between naps. Even trusty mobile couldn't calm him down. Hopefully he will feel better when he wakes up from this one. He's had a tough day!

Yesterday Grady and I went to meet with some of the mothers from our birthing class. There were four of us there, and we compared stories and experiences. We had an 8 week, 9 week (Grady), 10 week, and 11 week old there, so it was neat to see how the different aged babies acted. Mostly they all just slept!

Grady did some impressive tummy time yesterday too - here's a picture of him pushing himself up on his arms.



Excuse the blurriness. Er, and the massive drool rolling off his chin.
