Check-ups

Just like how we ended month one, month two came to an official close with a trip to the doctor's office.  Dr. Cabrera was pleased to see us once again and Mr. B was all smiles as his weight was reported in at 15.1 lbs and approximately 25 inches.  Brian and I both think that Mr. B's real height passes the 25 inch mark and is "unofficially" closer to 26 inches, but I guess we go with what the doc says for the record books :). 

After a thorough review, Dr. C reported that most of Beckham's behaviors are more like a 4 month old than a little 2 month babe.  Beck proudly showed off his best baby babble, how he can hold his head up without wobble and his tummy pushup.  I must confess, it was a proud mommy moment when the doc was bragging on how well Beckham was doing. 

Dr. C closed with "you guys are doing a good job" which was met by a smile and heavy sigh from both me and Brian.  Glad we are doing a good job with our little man!  Then, Dr. C scooted out of the room just in time for the shots.  He conveniently does this on purpose so the children don't associate him with the dreaded shots.  Beckham was no different.  After four pinches on his chunky thighs ... he cried for a moment and then quickly forgot them.  I'm just glad we don't have to do that with each visit!
