Matthew's Two- Month Pediatrician Visit

Matthew saw Dr. Rees, his pediatrician, yesterday, for his two-month well-baby check. Matthew is doing very well. I was so curious to see how much he weighs. I was thinking around 12 pounds or so. Wrong! Matthew weighs 14 pounds, 10 ounces. Wow! That explains why I am up so much at night feeding him. He is a HOG! So, needless to say, Matthew is in the 95% for weight. He has grown from 20 inches at birth to 23 3/4 inches, placing him in the 85% for height. His head circumference is 40 cm, which is also at the 85th percentile. Our son is a growing and thriving little boy how checked out to be just "perfect". He is also reaching his milestones at the right times. Mike and I have enjoyed watching him smile and coo at us. He is just too cute for words. And, Matthew did has some of his vaccines yesterday. Mommy was kind of a mess in the morning, know that her precious little son would have to get poked. Mike and I have chosen to do Dr. Sear's alternate vaccine schedule. We are so relieved that Matthew's pediatrician will accomodate this for us. So, Matthew will be going once a month for two injections. He did absolutely fabulous yesterday. He did not even flinch while receiving his injection. And, no fever or reactions. He's a little tired, which works for me because he actualy slept about 9 hours last night, only waking twice. WOW!
