Two month stats

Ben had his well check last Friday, and here are his stats:
Weight: 13 lbs. 11 oz.--90 to 97th percentile
Height: 23 in.--50 to 75th percentile

They didn't write down his head circumference for me, but told me it's in the 75th percentile. Big boy. Guess I don't need to worry about him not geting enough milk!

He has developed some jaundice over the past few weeks so they did some blood work. It showed his liver enzymes are elevated, so they are trying to get us an appointment with a gastro specialist at the children's hospital. Hopefully we'll know something soon.

He's a happy boy, always ready with a smile!

Brotherly love

Evan has been such a good big brother. While he definitely seems to be going through a rebellious, defiant stage, he never fails to want to love on Ben. He's always trying to snuggle him, rub his head, pick him up (!!), or rub his face on Ben. He is forever grabbing Ben's hand or foot, or whatever he can reach. When we get on to him about it (mostly about being too rough), he says, "He's just so cute, I want to touch him!" How can you be grumpy with that?


The other day I walked out of the kitchen to find this. :)

I finally got a pic that shows Ben's eye color. Probably still changing, but definitely going to be blue. Just like big bro and Daddy.

And here's our little guy at two months! How the time flies.

Maybe someday I'll be able to dress both kids in something other than PJs. And myself too, for that matter.
