Max's Two-Month Well Baby Visit!

Max. Happy Boy. January, 2010.

Last week, Max had his 2-month well baby visit with the doctor. Everything checked out, and his growth is moving strongly ahead. Mommy has the little boy doing his tummy time, and it's paying off, as Max can lift his head like a pro. He's turned over a couple times, but not consistently (read: on our demand!).

Max had to have a battery of injections, which Mommy bravely endured on her own while Dylan and I went to the pharmacy to get some infant Tylenol. (In fairness, I accompanied Dylan on my own when he had to get blood drawn for his annual lead analysis - we live in an old home - and annual iron analysis, all normal.) Of course, Max did not like getting poked. Nor did his brother.

Here are some of Max's stats over the last few weeks!

Weight:
November 4, 2009: 9lb, 8.4oz (63 percentile)
November 18, 2009: 11lb, 7.6oz (86 percentile)
December 30, 2009: 14lb, 1.1oz (83 percentile)

Height:
October 15, 2009: 1ft, 10in (99 percentile)
November 4, 2000: 1ft, 10.25in (89 percentile)
December 30, 2009: 2ft, 0.5in (84 percentile)

Head Size:
November 4, 2009: 14.76in (51 percentile)
December 30, 2009: 16.26in (67 percentile)

Max's next doctor appointment is March 1st.


Other news, we are all going to Morro Bay for a few days later this month. We hope that many of our SoCal family will be able to join us there to visit with the newest family member. But we are simply looking forward to a few days out of town in a lovely setting and all together!

Hope the new year is off to a great start for all of you!
