milk, it does a body good!

me and the doc...i wish the appt
would have ended with him

breastmilk, that is. at least that's what the pediatrician told us today. yep, i had my two month visit this morning. we met with dr. rubin...an airwalk-wearin', joke-crackin', wisdom-sharin' kind of guy. i really liked him. here are my stats for today:

• Weight: 12 lbs. 14 oz (75th percentile)...holy cow mom, those things are loaded!
• Height: 23 1/4 in (70th percentile)...at this rate, i'll be taller than both mommy and daddy!
• Head circumference: 16 in (70th percentile)...i'm proud to be taking after my gampa!

so i gained almost 5 pounds in 6 weeks. a total champ and a total chunk! overall, the doc said i was normal and in perfect health!

of course, i then found out he was only buttering me up because then the bomb was dropped. "what's coming?" i asked. i didn't have to wait very long to find out. ashley seemed nice at first. she even complemented the kangas on my diaper.

yuck...this so wasn't breastmilk!

something just poked me

holy cow...something just impaled my leg!

you gotta be kidding me...you brought me here for this?

i don't think i like ashley anymore. as we left the pediatrician, i overheard daddy telling mommy it was a good thing i only got one shot today instead of three...something about an alternative schedule. i sure would hate to know what a regular schedule is!

6 week appointment...for mommy

mommy had her 6 week follow-up appointment today at the birth center. aubrey, the lady who helped mommy for over 12 hours of labor before we transferred to the hospital, wanted mommy to bring me along. aubrey was so supportive for mommy and daddy, she even went with us to the hospital when they decided to transfer. she is so nice and was so excited to see me. and even though the appointment was for mommy, aubrey went ahead and weighed me just to see how much i've grown. i'm not sure i want to start releasing this information...but maybe this one time. drum roll please...12 lbs!!! aubrey said mommy must be making some good cream. way to go mommy! by the way, mommy's check-up went well.

ready to go in my cool hat

me and aubrey...not my most flattering picture
