2 month shots:(

so we took jack to the dr. for his 2-month check-up and his first round of vaccines. i have to admit i had been dreading it all week--i made mike hold him while they administered them! he seems to be doing ok...he has been all smiles this morning and doesn't seem to be running a fever. i was thankful to learn that the vaccines were both mercury & thimerosal free...with all the autism hype, it was nice to know that we've made some effort to eliminate possible causes.

so onto the stats...jack weighed in at 11 1/2 pounds & 23 inches! he is in the 50th percentile for both height and weight--perfect if i do say so myself!

so now our biggest challenge is getting him onto a routine...i'm trying my best to get him to be able to put himself to sleep without rocking, shushing or nursing...our first attempt this morning was a success--he fell asleep on his own in his crib! keep your fingers crossed we're on the cusp of a breakthrough!!

here's a cute pic from yesterday morning...it really has nothing to do with the post, but it was too cute not to post...
