2-month check-up

Stats for Justus
weight: 12 lbs. 6 oz. (50%)
height: 23 in. (50%)



He got 2 shots, which he definitely did not like and let us know by screaming and turning blood red. Other than that, he did great...even christening the table!

Justus at 2 months



Sunday was Justus's 2 month "birthday". He still looks pretty similar to how he looked at birth, except that he has definitely grown, longer and thicker. Some of his dark hair has fallen out, mostly on the top sides and sides, making him look like he has old man hair. He is making eye contact, smiling and "talking" a little, which makes being sleep deprived at least a little more bearable! He is starting to go longer between "meals" and I am thankful for this as it allows me to spend more quality time with Bo. I have noticed that I'm saying, "I can't right now", a lot less than in the beginning. And I can see an improvement in Bo's behavior as a result - not surprising that a little quality time can make a heart softer to instruction!

Updates on growth:
Justus at birth: 8 lbs. 1 oz., 20 3/4 in.
at 2 weeks: 8 lbs. 10 oz. (50%), 21 1/4 in. (60%)
at 2 months: check back on Saturday for an update.






Bo at 3 years: 36 lbs. (90%), 40 in. (90%)
Making progress in potty training! He went to the bathroom twice in a restaurant on Sunday, and has started using the regular toilet!
