Josh had his 2 month checkup today. Mr Chunky-Monkey weighs 14 lbs 6 oz, 23 1/2 inches, and head measures 16 1/4. That puts him in the 95% for weight, 75% for height, and 75% for head. Poor little guy got 4 shots today and an oral vaccination. He was NOT happy, but after he caught his breath and calmed down, he went right to sleep. I'm sure it hurt me a lot worse than it hurt him...it's so hard to see him so upset! :(
Speaking of sleep, he has been a champ! The past few nights he has gone for stretches of 8, 9, or even 10 hours! However, he goes to bed about 7:00pm-so we are still up for a feeding at 3:00am or 4:00am, but I am not going to complain! I still get up 4 and 5 times throughout the night checking on him. There are many nights I lie there awake thinking surely he will be up soon...but he keeps on snoozin. I can't wait for the times when he AND I sleep through the night.

Yay! That's awesome he sleeps so well already! And I wish I could tell you it gets easier with the shots, but unfortunately it only gets worse!
It is difficult when you wake up and are certain he will wake up soon; and he doesn't. It will pass though. Soon, you'll both be sleeping through the night. Lately, some of Anthony's expressions have looked like Josh. It's interesting, they both definitely have "Alexander" qualities. I love the pictures and also hearing how you guys are doing. Take care!
