Brady had his 2 month checkup today - he weighed in at 11 lbs 4.5 oz and 22.5 inches long, putting him in the 30th percentile (he was 10% weight at his 2 week checkup).  He has gained almost 5 lbs and 3.5 inches since birth.  No wonder our arms get tired.  Daddy once again lost the over/under bet (12 lbs), meaning Braum's for mommy!  Brady also had his first real set of vaccinations. One was oral, the other two were shots in his thighs.  The needles are HUGE!  Something about having to get through the baby fat to the muscle.  I don't know, it was rough on all of us.  And they don't give the mommy's time to prepare, they just stick your kids.  Brady cried, nursed, and slept until about 4 hrs after the shots.  Poor guy woke up uncomfortable and crying so we gave him some infant Tylenol.  That seemed to do the trick.  


Here's a picture of one of the band-aids on Brady's thigh.  We go back to the pediatrician when Brady is 4 months for the next round of vaccines.
