This adorable boy is all we can think or talk about these days, so here is just a short post to update anyone who wants to know about Truman as much as we want to talk about him.
We recently took him to his two month appointment and affirmed that our babe is still as chubby as ever. He weighed 14 lbs 10 oz., which is in the 97th percentile and his height is in the 93rd percentile. People who see him always ask if he is about 6 months old and are shocked when they find out he’s only 2 months. He also got three shots at his appointment and was so brave. He cried during each poke but was calmed down after a few seconds. Of course the calming down didn’t last too long since the nurse was pretty quick to give him his next poke, but we were still impressed.
He is working on keeping his head up on his own. He doesn’t like being on his tummy much, but when we hold him he usually keeps his head up the whole time. He babbles a lot, especially in the mornings. He likes staring at his mobile and smiles at it and talks to it. He smiles a lot and has kind of started to laugh. I’ve found that I’m getting obsessed with documenting his “firsts” in his baby book, and we have conversations like the following one fairly frequently:
me: Was that a laugh?
James: I’m not sure.
me: If that was an official laugh I need to write it down in his baby book.
James: Sure. Write it in his book.
me: But I don’t want to write it in if it wasn’t really a laugh.
James: Then don’t write it.
me: I kind of want to
James: Then write it
me: I’m scared
He is still a happy baby. And we can’t get enough of those cheeks! If you want to kiss his soft and fat cheeks, come visit us – I promise it’s worth the flight and you can even sleep on our living room floor.
