Notes from the 2-month check up and a special little mini-video!

So today was a big day for Will (and me too)! He had his two-month check-up, which meant it was time for those dreaded vaccinations. He did pretty well, I must say. Better than me! After the nurse put bandaids over his two bloody wounds (OK, tiny little pin pricks), she looked at my teary eyes and asked if I was OK. I am OK--for the record. But I think I went through another mommy rite of passage--feeling my child's pain and wishing it were my own. Does that sound cheesy? Oh well, I'm very sentimental these days! Anyway, Will seems to be a very healthy and normally developing 2-month-old. He's a whopping 12 pounds! That's almost a pound in just over a week! Crazy healthy weight gain! Go Will! We're so lucky to have such a healthy baby! 

Before we went to the doctor, Will was in a jovial mood. See for yourself in the video below. It's a very short one so don't blink! :-)

Bear's right, a little Jutty has emerged! Now about those "stretches", is baby imitating Daddy???????
Ahhhhhhh, maybe a fist full of green, and a trip to the big island will inspire him!

Bear,
There's absolutely NO way I'm sharing Little Mexico, with people shorter than me!
They'll be making fun of me all night long!Just give me your dogs AND cats, and I'll bark & purr until the sun comes up without having to change a diaper, or feed two babies from bottles, tucked under my chin!
