Jackson had his 2 month pediatrician visit today. Unfortunately, he was given 3 shots for vaccines and he didn't like it one bit! Of course, it made me feel good cuz he immediately stopped crying when I picked him up - but that probably had more to do w/ him not having a needle in his leg anymore! :) Either way, made me feel good! His weight and measurements were taken at this visit... and drum roll.... he weighs 11lbs, 14oz! They were very impressed w/ his weight gain at this point.. especially considering he was down to 5lbs, 12oz at his lowest... So the doc said WOW on that one! :) He also is 22 1/4inches long (he was 20 1/2 at birth) and his head is 40 1/2 cm around. They said he ranks in the 50th percentile on everything... so yeah! My perfect baby!!! Doc did say that after evaluating Jackson (we were in there together for about 15-20 minutes - which is a long time w/ a doctor!), he thinks Jackson may be developing a bit faster than most babies his age - based on his eye contact, strength of neck and agility. Here are some pics I just took of Jackson w/ his bandaids on!
Daddy scored LOTS of points w/ Mommy today cuz he surprised me by showing up at the doc's office!!! He told me he had meetings he had to be at and couldn't make it so I was bummed, but he surprised me!!! Jackson was happy too!
