2 Months

It is crazy to think that I have a 2 month old baby. It seems like yesterday we were coming home from the hospital... okay, maybe not yesterday but not 2 months ago.

Jax had his 2 month doctors appointment yesterday and came away with a few pokes in his legs but was named a champion for the way he took them. Of course he didn't like getting stabbed with a needle, who does? But he calmed down quickly and fell right asleep. The best part was finding out how much he had grown. I was so anxious to find out his percentiles and how they've changed or increased.

At birth (well his 2 week appointment) he was
Height: 22.5 inches - 96%
Weight: 8 lbs 5 oz. - 53%
Head Circumference: 35.8 cm- 41%

2 months:
Height: 24.5 inches - 93%
Weight: 12 lbs. 6 oz. - 63%
Head Circumference: 40.75 cm - 64%

Needless to say we have a big boy on our hands. The doctor said he is doing great and is healthy! When I told Laura (my mother-in-law) about his stats she looked up Danny's when he was 2 months and I just laughed. He weighed 14 lbs and was 23 inches. He was a chunky monkey!

Here are some pictures I snapped at the doctors before he got his shots:

If only he knew what was going to happen next...

I just told him... now he's a little concerned....

The other night Danny and I were eating and it's always a guessing game if Jaxon will let us eat peacefully or not. If he's asleep, 99% of the time he'll decide to wake up and be hungry right when I take my first bite. If he's awake, 99% of the time he'll decide he's tired right when Danny takes his first bite. This time he had decided he just had enough of his swing and awesome jungle noises it makes and wanted to come hang out with mom and dad. Danny was holding him on his lap and eating when Jaxon realized who was holding him. He caught Danny's eye and wouldn't stop looking at him the entire time he ate dinner. He just cocked his little head around and stared at dad like he was crazy or something. It was the cutest thing ever. This continued the entire meal.

We also have gotten a lot of, "Oh, he looks just like his daddy!" from people who meet Mr. J. However, I had given up on trying to figure out or decide on who he looked like more around 2 weeks and began responding with "That's what everyone says...". However, my sister-in-law sent me a picture she had of my siblings and I when I was a few months old and Jaxon and I have a lot of similar features. I'll let you decide...

 



Things are going well with the Toney 3. Just waiting for dad to be done with the semester and trying to keep warm!!  Love to all!
