We went to the doctor February 4th for Sam's check-up and shots. His visit was great. He weighs 13 lbs 10 oz. and is 24 inches long. So, he's in between the 25th and 50th percentile for his weight and height. He handled the shots like a champ. He cried, I mean SCREAMED, after the shot, but calmed down before we even got to the elevator.
He has also reached a few milestones.
He has learned to roll over from his tummy to his back. It's so cute! After he does it he looks around smiling like he's so proud of his hard work. Here's a picture after he rolled over in his crib.
He can also roll over from his back to his tummy if he has something he can grab and pull himself over with.
He's enjoying his exersaucer...he's a little small...so I have to pack blankets around him. Even though it's for a 4 month old baby his feet don't' even touch the bottom.
Of course, he's still babbling, smiling, and laughing all the time. His hands are also like magnets to whatever I have in my hand when I'm near him. Although he hasn't cut a tooth yet, he's still chewing and drooling all over the place. Sam loves taking a bath! He kicks and splashes as soon has his little bottom hits the water. Steve and I have learned that when he takes a bath we have to get two wash cloths out: one for Sam to hold and chew on and one for us to use to bath him. Sam also found a new friend last week in the bath tub...yes, he knows that he is a boy now!
