He's Growing!

This handsome boy had his two month check-up yesterday. [Yes, we're a little bit behind on the dates already]



This is the first time we've seen him "suck" his thumb. I use quotation marks because it wasn't a very active thing— just his sweet little thumb resting in his mouth. Lately it's been his whole fist, so the thumb was a slight improvement.

Any way, the real reason I'm here is to let you know his stats.

When he was born [8.10.12], our little boy was:
> 6 lbs. 11oz.
> 20 inches long
> His head size will forever be a mystery, because "7.5" is written on his charts. Which makes no sense...

At his first month appointment [9.12.12], he was:
> 8 lbs. 11 oz. [15th percentile]
> 20.25 inches long [5th percentile]
> Head circumference of 14.75" [50th percentile]

Big head, little body :)

Yesterday, at his second month appointment [10.22.12], he was:
> 10 lbs. 15 oz. [15th percentile] Even though we're convinced he's 11 lbs...
> 22.75 inches long [20th percentile]
> Head circumference of 15.75" [50th-75th percentile]

Even bigger head, little body—I wonder who he gets that from...

Well his check-up was memorable for more than just his fun little stats... he got shots. Four of them... It was so sad. I didn't think I'd cry. But I did...

Our little man was pitiful the whole day.

Tuckered out after enduring such hostility.
We love you so much, Haddon Pugh. It's already so hard to see you hurting. Boy, have we got a long road ahead of us!
