2 Months

It is amazing how quickly our little man is growing. He had his two month appointment on Tuesday. He weighed 10 pds 8 oz. He is in the 25th percentile for his weight. The doctor said that that is fine and he is not under weight. He is 23 inches long and that is in the 50th percentile. He also got his two month vacines. That was sad. Nick and I had to hold his arms while two nurses gave him shots in both legs. He got two shots in one leg and three in the other. He cried while he was getting the shots. He calmed down pretty quickly once they were done. He napped most of the morning with dad and took a long nap in the afternoon with mom. Now he is back to normal.

As you can see in the pictures above Elijah is smiling all the time. He is just so darn cute. He is following items with his eyes and seems a lot more attentive. He is waking up once during the night usually around 4. Sometimes he sleeps all night. He usually goes to bed around 10 and gets up for the morning around 7. Sometimes Abby has to wake him up so he can be fed before she goes to work.

Nick and Abby are somewhat back into a routine. Abby started at Miller Auditorium almost two weeks ago. She is working from 9 until noon doing bank deposits and other misc. items. Nick stays home with Elijah while Abby is at work. Nick is teaching two labs on campus. He also has help room and office hours. He is on campus in the afternoon. He has decided to go for his masters instead of a doctorate so he is also working on his thesis paper.
