2 Months!

Little man is two months old!  Where has the time gone?  Time is flying by and we seem to be falling into a routine.  I am probably going to blow it by saying this, but the little guy has been sleeping and average of 8 hours a night for the past two weeks. Pretty awesome!  We are still up at 4 AM to start our day, which is a wee bit early, but we are surviving. 

He had his 2 month appointment this past Tuesday and did great!  He has gained a little more than three pounds and has grown about three inches!  It looks like some of the tall genes from the Mayfield/Kendrick side of the family may be helping our kid out.  He is in the 34th percentile for weight and head circumference and the 64th percentile for height!  He is getting long!

With the 2 month check up came our first round of vaccines.  He definitely did not like them, but really who enjoys getting shots?  It wasn't a surprise when he started crying, but it still broke my heart as well as both nurses who were in the room.  He was the first time I have heard his hurt cry and it was hard to look at his sweet face and not cry right along with him! He calmed right down after some yummy milk and slept the rest of the afternoon and night away. :-) 

Here are two pictures to show his growth from one to two months.


One month old.

Two months old.

I didn't realize how much he has grown until I compared the two pictures!

 



Hope everyone has a great weekend!  Its a big weekend here for Tripp.  He has his first football game, 80's party (pictures of his costume are coming), and it will be his first time going to church! Love you all.
