Well Baby Checkup


He was checking out the pattern on his boppy pillow for a long time.

Ryan has his "2 month" baby well check up.  He was due for this in December, but due to the holidays and such they weren't able to fit him in until now.  He is about 2 and 3/4 months old at this visit.
Our big guy with fingers in the mouth!

Stats: Weight 15#5 (84%)
          Length 24 3/4 inc (85%)
          Head Size 42 cm (94%)

Ryan likes: to sit up or be held upright
He doesn't like laying down in your arms (he might go to sleep if you do that!?!)
You may only lay him down in your arms to feed him ;). He clearly likes his milk!

He has become very alert and startles very easily to new sounds or sudden sounds.  He went along to Story Time with his big sister on Monday and they were singing a song where they shouted suddenly.  Man he did NOT care for that.  He went from smiles to a frown instantly and cried.  He got scared.  I will remember to cover his ears next time!

He has learned how to whip his legs up and turn to either side.  He has very nearly turned almost all the way over, but that darn arm is in the way.  He tolerates tummy time and can raise his head up but usually chooses not too.  I mean can you blame him it is apparently a big noggin.

He has also found his hands and he frequently has them in his mouth chewing on them.  I'm pretty sure he gnawed on his hand to hard last night and made himself cry.  Poor guy!  He has a strong gummy bite. 

It doesn't have to be my hands, mommys will work too.
