How Big is Baby?

How big can he be? (Insert "So Big" into my brain for the rest of the day :)

Will had his 2 month check up today, he weighs 11lbs, 12 oz and is 23.25 inches! Will went from the 10th percentile in weight at his 2 week visit to the 44th percentile! Woo hoo! I'm glad my little man is so big and healthy, especially since we had issues with him eating and gaining weight during his first few weeks.

Will also had his first round of immunizations, he squawked a little, but I had to choke back some tears when I saw how sad he was. Will just gave me this look like, "You've betrayed me!". Alas, thank goodness for baby Tylenol.

Dave and I feel so fortunate and blessed that Will is such an easy and happy kid. He's pretty easy to console, he naps like a champ and when he's ready to play he's so much fun! Aside from the first couple weeks of his life, I'm not sure what parents are referring to when they say "I don't have time for anything!", I feel like I'm missing part of some part of the baby equation.When Will is awake 100% of my attention is on him, but he takes such great naps that I feel like I have time to get a lot done. I don't have nearly as much time as I did before, but I think we manage to keep it together. Will is also so portable right now, I love that we can take him anywhere and he's so content and happy. I think in a few months when he's on a more set schedule and he's mobile is when we're going to start feeling like we don't have time for anything. We'll also see what kind of tune I'm singing when I go back to work in a few weeks... I have a feeling it's going to be interesting getting back into the swing of things. We shall see!

Here's my big man sleeping off his rough day. Hopefully tomorrow he's back to his happy self. :)
