Gavin-2 Months

We had Gavin's 2 Month appointment on October 29, 2012.  He is doing very well and growing like crazy!  He weighed 14 lbs 9 oz and is in the 96 percentile for weight and is 25 1/2 inches and in the 99 percentile for height.  I can't believe how fast my little guy is growing and how tall he is.  Dr Alba suggested he be the Hulk for Halloween:)  Gavin got his first set of shots today and did really well.  He got sleepy later on just like Ellie did and really hasn't been too ornery with them.  He did cry a bit more with her, but I think it may be the nurse that gave them.  He did it pretty slow and held his legs tight so he was flexing them.  I thought it was pretty funny to that when they gave him the oral vaccination he kept gagging.  He has a really strong gag reflex.  A few things that Gavin is doing right now are.

Ellie got her flu shot too.  She did amazing! and only cried for a second.  Then she was telling everyone that shots don't hurt and loves her bandaid.  That night she proceeded to give us all shots over and over:)

• October 1, 2012 He tried his first sucker...Thanks to Ellie, Gavin had a little bit of sucker:)  I was putting away groceries and he was asleep in his car seat.  She comes running in to tell me he is awake so I went in and find his mouth very sticky.  I asked her about it and she said she shared with him.  She is really great at sharing...we did have a little chat about what babies can eat:)
• October 2, 2012 Gavin laughed in his sleep tonight.  I love it!  He has started to smile when we look at him, but not a lot.  He is a very happy baby and so content.
• He is making noised and realizing when he does make the noise and tries to do it again.
• He focuses like crazy.  He is really good at this and will follow you if you aren't going fast.
• He eats every 3 hours and we are trying to get on a little schedule.  Gavin usually eats around 7:30-8pm and then us asleep until 2-3am and back to sleep till 6-7am.  He is doing really well with sleeping.  On October 13, he slept from 10:45pm-7am!
• October 23, 2012 He found himself in the mirror and just kept staring.

 Gavin is so much fun and I love having him.  It has been an adjustment and we are still adjusting to having 2 kids, but loving every minute.  Ellie loves Gavin like crazy and always wants to be with him or asks where he is.
