2 Month Checkup

Today I took Jack to his 2 month well baby checkup. He now weighs 11 pounds 14 ounces, which puts him in the 50th percentile, and is 21.5 inches tall, putting him in the 6th percentile. I couldnt believe it, he really seems tall to me, but apparently he is short and squatty. But he was a little short when he was born. He got his shots, and screamed during but calmed down right after and is currently sleeping and having sweet dreams. He has a little umbilical hernia, his belly button is super outy, but its pretty common and as his abs get stronger it will fix itself. His doctor seems pretty good, although not as good as our old one. oh well. Everything looks good, the doc did say we need to continue to be antisocial due to the coming cold, flu and RSV season, he said avoid places and situations that you cannot control like going to stores and church where there are billions of people and you cant control who is around and knowing who is sick yadda yadda yadda. I will take a picture of Jack soon in his diaper so you can see how rolly polly he is getting and see his very outy belly button. He is starting to smile a lot so i will try to capture that as well, but that will be a bit more tricky.

You should get him an ab cruncher for Christmas... lol. He's getting so big! I can't believe he's not "taller" than that either, he seems so long!

One other funny thing, I pulled up how much Riley weighed at 2 months and he weighed 11 lb. 14 oz. and he was 7 lb 5 oz at birth, so I think Jack is growing wonderfully!
