Today was the big Two month checkup for Dominic.
He started the morning out very happy and was smiling and talking (ah gooing) a bunch. We got to the doctor’s office… I left the stroller part in my truck (FAIL!) so I had to carry him in the carrier to the 3rd floor… boy is he getting heavy!
In the office he was measured and here is where he is at: 15lbs and 25 1/2” long!!
The doctor then showed us his charts and for weight he’s at about 95%, for head size he’s between 90% and 95% (looked closer to 94%) for height he’s above 95% (looked closer to 97% or 98%. So what this all means is he’s a BIG, healthy, well proportioned 2 month old baby! During his exam he was smiling big at his crazy fast talking doctor!
Boy I sure am happy, there isn’t anything that could possibly upset me today!
Then the nurse came in to deliver his SHOTS! RUH-ROH!
As you can imagine he did not enjoy the 3 shots and liquid stuff he had to take today. He made sounds like we’ve never heard him make before. We returned home and Lori spent the rest of the day with him (while I went to work) she reports that he slept a bunch and was irritable while he was sleeping and then when he waked he needed to be held close.
He seems to be doing better now and will have another two months to recoup before he has to go back and get boosters!
How do you like Dr. Hall?

She’s INSANE! But we love her and if Dominic knew how to laugh he’d have peed himself! Oh wait he did that anyway.
Yeah she’s fun and surprisingly relaxing though she talks a mile a second!

He’s a big boy!
I almost think it’s funny when they get their shots. They turn instant beet red and scream bloody murder! Then after a few minutes Luke didn’t even remember what had happened.

He looks so perfect with his little dimples! Glad everything went well – hopefully he’ll be nice and happy today!
