2 month appt...not fun!

Jack had his 2 month doctor's appointment yesterday and it involved shots =( He took them like a champ though. The first was an oral shot so he sat on my lap while the doctor put a little in his mouth and he swallowed it right away and then took the rest. The doctor was so surprised at how well he took it, she said usually it takes her about 5 minutes to give that to babies and they try to spit it out. Not Jack, he took it and devoured it all right up. He must have thought she was feeding him and since he never misses a meal he drank it all right up. Next were the actual shots and he was not a happy camper. He had 3 shots to get, 2 in one leg and one in the other. He screamed when she gave them to him but as soon as she was done I gave him his bottle and he was all better =)

Later that night was another story, he cried and it was awful. I held him in my bed and rocked him and cried right along with him. I felt so bad because he was hurting and there really wasn't too much I could do to make it stop. I eventually gave him tylenol and we went to bed and he slept with me all night =)

Ok, now to the better news...our little boy isn't so little anymore! He now weighs 11lbs 5oz and is 22 3/4 inches long! It's ridiculous how big he is getting and how fast! I am so happy he is growing well and everything is good but I would love it if time could stand still for just a little while. If anyone knows how to do this, please share the secret!

xoxo,

Jaime
