Two Months Old

I know its June 6th...I promise I took these on May 17th.  I figured I better post them before Duncan turns 3 months old! 

We've been busy the past few weeks; I have some catching up to do (what's new).  Duncan is smiling and laughing and cooing and has turned from his stomach to his back and from his back to his stomach, although he seemed surprised both times.  I don't think it was intentional, but it happened, so it counts.  Although to be perfectly accurate, both occurences were in the past week, so I probably should have saved that news for the "Three Month" post.

He really has turned into quite a content little baby, we had some rough weeks, and he still has tummy issues from time to time, but that is not uncommon.  At the suggestion of my cousin Alice and seconded by our pediatrician, we started him on some probiotic drops.  They come in a tee-tiny little glass bottle that costs $40 but they are worth every penny because I really think they've helped him feel better.  There is nothing worse than a baby that you can't comfort!  I also have cut way way back on dairy which might be helping too.  His favorite past-time is being held as much as possible, I'm afraid I've spoiled him, but I'm okay with that!

He is steadily climbing up the charts.  At his 2-month check-up he weighed in at 12.44 lbs (63rd percentile), measured 23" (57th percentile), and head circumference was 15.5" (66th percentile).  He's growing!
