2 Month Check-Up

Landon went to visit his pediatrician yesterday, for his 2 month check-up (yes, he is currently 7 weeks old--but we are very punctual people). Here are his most recent stats:
                                             
                   Weight: 10.6 pounds (25th percentile)
                    Length: 23 inches (50th percentile)
                    Head Circumference: 16 inches (75th percentile)

From these stats we have learned that he is growing accordingly and will be very smart as his head encompasses more brains than 75% of newborns his age :)

He also received 3 shots and an oral polio vaccination. I couldn't bare watch my little man get stuck in his legs three times, so I politely excused myself from the room and allowed Landon's daddy to comfort him.

According to Phil, he tried to take the first shot like a champion, but the pain was so unbearable...he lost it! I heard him crying all the way down the hallway. My poor baby! Here is a picture of him waiting for the nurse to return with his shots.


 The shots made him extra sleepy, as you can tell.

He spent a good hour sleeping on my lap! We are so thankful that Landon is growing and thriving.

  1. Awwww...I remember those shots! :( The good thing is they recover quickly from them....probably quicker than mom and dad do! So glad to hear that he is doing so well and is a budding genius!! :) Give him a kiss from me!
