2 Months Old

Liam turned 2 months old yesterday. We spent a couple of hours at 'Nova where he got to meet several of my students-- he had a good time hamming it up for them!

So it is official... Liam is a giant. We had his 2-month checkup this morning and found out that he is in the 95th percentile in height, and at 15 lbs 11 oz, off the charts in weight! Definitely not destined to be a shrimp! Because of his size, the doc thinks that he will be ready for solid food at 4 months. Here are a couple of pics of our not-so-little guy:

Liam also received 5 immunizations this morning: DTaP, Hib, Polio, PCV, and Rotavirus. So I had been warned that it was going to be a little stressful, but I don't think anything could have prepared me for that experience! He was so shocked and upset when he got stuck with those needles, and I'll admit it made me tear up a little too. He cried pretty hard for a while, then went into a daze with his pacifier, and then fell asleep. Here he is in PTSS (post-traumatic stress sleep):

Poor guy! Glad we don't have to do that again for a while; we don't go back for another checkup until late June for his 4-month. Now that that's out of the way, time to prep for our trip to Illinois next week!
