My little boy is growing so fast! I remember when he was 1wk old and his 3 mo old cousin Ty looked HUGE! Now little baby Calin is almost that size! Wow! He had his 2mo checkup today. The doctor said he is very advanced for 2 months and doing really well. And I think we were all surprised at how much weight he's gained. Jordan and I were concerned with the dry skin on his head and face, but he gave a few suggestions of things we could try so hopefully they will help! He got 4 vaccinations today - 3 shots and one drink.
Here are his stats:
2 wk. appt - 8.8 lbs 45%
2 mo. appt - 12.7 lbs 71%
an increase of 3.9 lbs and 26%
2 wk. appt - 20.5" 37%
2 mo. appt - 23.25" 59%
an increase of 2.75" and 22%
2 wk. appt - 14" head circumference 18%
2 mo. appt - 15.25" head circumference 20%
an increase of 1.25" and 2%
Isn't his wink so cute! ;-)
I was trying to snap a pic of him stuffing his whole hand in his mouth, but lately it's only been his finger that he sucks on. I read in a book that sucking your fingers is most likely linked to genetics. Hmm, not sure if that's true, but then again, how many kids do you know that suck their finger like this (I guess it's more like his proximal interphalangeal, haha - he doesn't sraighten his finger), well it's exactly how I sucked my finger when I was little, so maybe it is? We'll see if it continues.
We did get around to making caramel apples last night :) They were delicious! They're not too extravegant since it was our first time, but they sure do taste yummy! We used Butterfinger, Oreos, brown sugar and cinnamon to roll them in.

Yummy...I wish we could come on over and gobble up those apples, they look store bought...but I'm sure they tasted better! You are so organized with Calin's growth progression! What an awesome mom!
Ohh cute little baby Calin isn't going to be so little next time we see you guys. He is growing well, it's nice to hear that from the Dr!
If the Dr. didnt tell you he might run a low grade fever and be GROUCHY for the next 24 hours or so because of the shots. Make sure to have the Tyloenol handy. Ty was all of the above for sure after both his 2 and 4 mo. shots. :)
Oh and glad to see Calin's head is a little bigger... poor Ty and his massive noggin. Its hard for him to do anything HAHA
I agree those apples look scrumptious!
Cant wait to see you guys again soon!
Great stats, sounds like Calin is growing and growing. Love the winking pic! Apples look super yummy!
OMG I want to eat this right now!!!
