Not such a little squirt anymore
Today was Boyd's 2 month check up. He tipped the scale at 10 pounds 2 ounces. He was 22 inches long, but I think he is longer because he always curls up on the measuring table. He has moved up to the 20th percentile for weight. The doctor keeps laughing saying that she won't even predict where he will be on the charts in the future, given the difference in the sizes of mom and dad. She told me Boyd's body size and structure will be a surprise. Dr. Oswald did a great job looking Boyd over and addressing Mom's many questions. We go back in a month to get his vision checked again. Then the nurse came in with 4 shots/vaccines and 1 oral vaccine. Boyd cried and Mommy had to work really hard to hold back her tears. The good thing was the nurse was really fast. Boyd and Mommy stayed in the room for quite a while afterwards to be sure Boyd was alright. As a treat after the visit mom took Boyd to the grocery store with the lights he likes and picked up some infant Tylenol and a chocolate treat for herself. What can I say, mom is a stress eater. Dad stopped home for lunch to make sure Boyd was alright and made a face that told Mom he was equally as sensitive and concerned about Boyd's morning events. He helped Boyd feel better by playing a bounce the bed game-Boyd smiled.
