2 months old

On Friday Porter turned 2 months old. He also had his second doctor appointment.
These are the stats (50% being average):
Length/Height = 24.5" (90%)
Weight = 13 lbs (80%)
Head Circumference = 39 cm (40%)
The doctor is very please with his growth. He is a big baby and obviously eating very well. In fact, he is officially wearing 3-6 month old clothing at only 2 months old. He also got his first shots (Hep B, RV, DTaP, HIB, Pneumococcal, and Polio). This was a traumatic experience for both baby and father. He went into the doctor's office as a happy baby, flirting with the nurse and showing off, and came out as a very sad baby. Just like when we brought him home from the hospital for the first time, his guardian cat, Heckle was here to greet him. This weekend has consisted of a high fever and crying himself to sleep. We are hoping we are through it and not looking forward to the next round of shots.
On the bright side, Porter smiles, sticks out his tongue, "talks", laughs, and plays. He has become more fun to watch and play with. His toothless grin melts my heart and he seems to talk to us like he really has something important to say. He is getting better at holding up his head and standing when we hold him up. In fact, I got out his jumper tonight and he loved standing in it and jumping a little. I can already tell that this is going to be a favorite toy. Porter is a cuddler. He loves to be close, hold onto your shirt, and wrap his arms around your neck. I love to cuddle with him, especially in the mornings when I don't want to get out of bed. I call him my "trophy baby" because I love to show him off. I think he is the cutest baby ever and I am so proud of him. Although I still have anxiety about him growing too fast, I have to say that this month is even better than the last!
