two month checkup


We took Finn to the doctor today for his checkup (and first shots!)

He weighs 11 lbs 13.5 oz ... I was guessing 12 lbs so, pretty close. He's in the 50th percentile for weight and the 75th percentile for length at 23.5 inches. Almost two feet long!

We are spreading out his shots a bit but he still had to have one, and although the initial needle prick was a little uncomfortable he handled it like a pro. Andrew said he must get that from his side of the family, as needles aren't my strong suit - although, after giving birth I doubt that a little blood will faze me as much as it used to.

It is a beautiful fall week in New Haven so we're going to get out for a walk this afternoon. Here's a photo of Finn telling me a joke last night.

That Finn...always the jokester. He so funny, but what an ego! Laughing at his own jokes...

Auntie Ann asks...was it the geese joke? When the geese fly south they fly in a V. Why is one side longer than the other? I taught him that one when he was here for dinner!!! If you want the answer it is.............................................................................................................................................Because it has more geese in it!

He must take after his Uncle Mick and his great sense of humor. :) Although Finn is cuter with squishier cheek!

I reread this and remembered that Audrey was 12 pounds 1 ounce at 4 months.....so Finn is a strapping young man! As it should be! :)
