Two Month Stats

The 2 month check up went great (until the shots). Evan grew a ton in the last month. He now weighs 12 lbs 13.5 oz (80th percentile) and is 24" long (75th percentile). The nurse says he is really close to rolling over and showed me how to do this log roll with him for practice. We basically just lay him on his back and cross his legs until he rolls over and then cross his legs back to flip him over again. You would think it would tick him off but he seems to like it! The motion gets him ready for rolling over by himself.

Evan got one oral vaccination and 4 shots in the leg which were the THE WORST. He didn't really catch on to the shots until the first one was over but then he went from zero to 60 in about a second flat. He started screaming bloody murder and crying (tears now, ouch) and his little face got beet red. It was all I could do to keep from clotheslining the nurse so I could hold him and console him. He got four Looney Tunes band aids and then got to go home and eat so he calmed down pretty quickly as seen in the below "After" picture.
