2 Months

This "little" boy turned 2 months old last Tuesday.  He probably didn't get the appropriate celebration since we went to the doctor for his 2 month check up and got immunizations.  The initial shots didn't bother him much, but he was very upset later that afternoon for a few hours.  But that went away as quickly as it came.  Costner weighed 12 lbs, 8 oz and was 23  1/2 inches long.  He is in the 70th percentile for both height and weight.  I found Jaggar's weight at that exact age of 9 weeks, and he was a whole pound and few ounces LESS than Costner.  Shocking, I know.  Costner isn't sleeping through the night yet, but he definitely goes into that deeper sleep for the night between 10-11pm.  He is the happiest baby in the world when he wakes up in the mornings.  He's really starting to take notice of his surroundings (I can see him eying the letters on his wall deciding which one he will rip off first when that time comes.) and is starting to try to talk back to us in coos.  He is definitely moving a LOT more.  I'm not talking crawling or anything.  But he's doing the bicycle peddle with his feet like he's running,  and if you lay him one way, he can turn himself (still on his back) to have his head and feet in totally different spots...like laying lengthwise across the bed.  The only thing I wish he'd do differently is to slow down.
