Family and Friends --
Another generic letter, but I wanted to let give an update on the little
guy. We went for his 2 month check-up on Thursday. He got the big round of
shots -- and did not like it one bit. They put two shots in one thigh and
two in the other, he screamed and cried real tears!! Then they put those
little round band-aids on so he looked polka-dotted! :) But the doctor said
he is doing great... He weighed 12 lbs. 13 oz. and is 23" long (last month's
visit he was about 10 lbs. and 21.5" long) -- so he has grown. In fact, he
registered in the 90th percentile -- meaning he is a big baby for his age.
They gave me some Infant Tylenol in case he got a mild fever from the shots,
and usually 0-3 months old (based upon their weight) get a certain amount
but Ethan had already graduated to the 4-6 month category!! Let's just say
that he definitely has the thunder thighs and chubby cheeks. It is so funny
to stand him up and see these stubby, little legs! He still really has no
hair yet, he even is losing some in the back where he lays down. Let's just
hope he won't get my dad's hair...
He is drooling a lot, smiling a lot, giggling a lot... He can almost roll
over, too -- he can go from being on his back to being on his side and hitch
one leg over to almost roll over, but the hand on the ground is creating a
real obstacle for him, can't quite figure that one out yet!! He is also
still sleeping a lot which is nice -- allows me to get things done at work
and sometimes at home. He officially likes the swing now, too -- last time I
looked over after I had put him in it and he had major spit up all down his
belly!
Ben is taking two classes right now and has lots of group projects which
keep him busy. He is still playing soccer and having a great time, if not
sore every time he comes home!! He played in a golf tournament with some
co-workers on Friday and won a gift certificate for being closest to the
pin, so he went and bought a hat. Work is the same for both us -- just plain
work. I finally set up my dark room and developed some pictures of Ethan
(who else of course). I still have a long ways to go though in making
anything look good. Lots of things I forgot about from my college course.
But it was a lot of fun nonetheless.
Well, that's about it. Hope everyone is doing well.
P.S. For our website friends: I am still working on the guest book page. I
emailed a guy about the problem, but have yet to hear from him, so I might
just call... Hopefully soon.
Take care,
Sarah
