ocelotWe went to the doctor's for Leif's two month visit today. He was 23" long and weighed 12 lbs 8 oz. He's nearly doubled his birthweight!
He also got his shots, and is not a happy camper. Well, at this moment he's asleep, but when he's awake, he's either eating or crying. Poor guy.
On the way out, we saw a teensy newborn. It's shocking how much bigger and more alert he is now than he was just two months ago.
He's now smiling and holds his head up pretty well. His smiles are so gratifying. Up until recently he always looked so solemn that I worried (illogically, since I know babies don't generally smile that young) that he was depressed, or at least very serious. But the nurses even commented on what a happy baby he was. They think we're hippy nutcases, but agree that he's happy!
He also watches me eat very intently, and cries if I don't feed him at the same time. I'm guessing he'll be wanting big person food pretty early.
He's trying to figure out how to get his hands in his mouth, but mainly succeeds in whapping himself in the face. He hits pretty hard. I know because he whaps me in the face, too.
Something about him reminds me of my brother. I don't know what. He certainly doesn't look like my brother did as a baby.
