2 Month Checkup

Ok so technically our two month check up was at 9 weeks 5 days, but I was excited to finally see how much Carson is growing. Drumroll...

Newborn: 8lbs 6.3oz and 20.5in

Two Weeks: 9lbs 1oz and 21in

Two Months: 12lbs 9.5oz and 25in

Yeah for a growing baby boy!! He is 50th percentile for weight and 98th for height. Doc said he's on track to be tall and skinny like his parents (I laughed, me tall?). It is so fascinating to see Carson discover new things each day. He is still obsessed with mobiles, fans, etc and has now taken to bright colors. We went to a BBQ a few weekends ago and he was just staring at this Asian person. The guys asked, am I his first Asian? Lol!! Just last night he saw a picture of a baby girl on a magazine and just stared at her. Already digging the chicks!

Fascinated with his teddies

Carson also loves to lay on his playmat. He's now swatting at the toys and occassionally will grab some of the rings hanging down. Yesterday he also grabbed the binkie that was laying right next to him. We are still working on our arm strength for tummy time, but he sure has his leg strength down. His legs are so strong it looked like it was going to do a somersault the other day. Silly boy!

Bedtime stories with Papa

Also in the last week Carson got his first outdoor adventure with a walk in the Ken Caryl area of the Denver suburbs. Once we made it to where he could face out and look at the surroundings, he did quite well. He even discovered trees which was too cute to see. We can't wait to take him to the "real" outdoors which will be happening very soon :)

 

In mommy world I started working a little over a week ago. Let's just say things were very stressful so I had to call in reinforcements to help me adjust. Thank goodness for a wonderful mother who had no problem lending her daughter a helping hand (acutally I think it's more she got to spend a whole week with her grandson!)
