Got great news at our "not so fun" 2 month check-up

Friday, we took Boston to his 2 month check-up.  He did great.  We got there and stripped him down to his diaper, and then went into another room where he got all of his measurements.  We couldn't believe that he weighed more than 10 pounds - a whopping 10lbs 15oz to be exact!  Over the past two weeks he felt a little heavier but we never expected that he'd weigh almost 11 pounds.  He also measured 22 1/2 inches long.  It's no wonder he's outgrowing all of his newborn clothing.  Another part to this appointment was what I had been dreading, SHOTS.  I knew he would be getting several shots and there was no way I wanted to hear him cry from pain.  The nurse came in, laid him down and started by giving him an oral immunization.  Then before we knew it she was giving him shots in his thighs.  I turned my back for 3 seconds and it was all over!  She wasted no time.  I heard him start crying and by then she was all done.  He cried for about 15 seconds and was fine after that.  He doesn't have to go back to the pediatrician until his 4 month check-up, and unfortunately, he'll get another round of shots.
