I survived my two month check-up!

So I am 2 months old now so I had to go check in with my Doctor, Dr. Jo, to see how I had grown.



So here are my Stats-

  • 9 weeks and 1 day old
  • Weight- 12lbs 1.5 oz- 75th percentile
  • Length- 22 3/4 inches- 75th percentile
  • Head- 38.4 cm- 50th percentile

So I guess the Chunky Monkey nickname Mommy has been calling my does not apply as much as she thought! Dr. Jo also said that she thought that I was progressing very nicely. I am now tracking things with my eyes and she was very impressed that I was sleeping through the night ( most nights ) and that I already rolled over from my tummy to my back ( I am not supposed to be able to do that for another whole month yet!) I also decided to show her both my smile and my vernacular of goos and coos- she was very impressed.

After the doctor left the nurse came back and stuck me with three different shots! Mommy was much more nervous than I was. I took them like a champ. I cried a little when I got the shots but I was a big girl and calmed right down afterwards, and I did get some band-aids that matched my outfit so that was a bonus. I think I will just sleep a little extra tonight until I feel all better. Mom is happy that I have had these shots to protect me on my very first flight that I am taking next week. That is right- I am headed to Dallas for Thanksgiving to see Auntie Kristie and Uncle J, Grami and Grandpa and meet my Uncle Andy. I can't wait!! I will make sure to update you all on how it goes next week. Love you all!

Koel got a little teary eyed when Shaurya got his shots. Funny post. Now to head to a riveting 4 hour long meeting.
