Kason had his 2 month appointment yesterday. He was 12lb 15 oz (71%) and 24 in long (80%). He is getting so big. Everyone commented on how chubby he is. He had to get 3 shots and an oral vaccine. Daddy held his hands while I hid behind him. He cried so hard after the first shot, he stopped breathing for about 10 seconds. When he finally calmed down, he had to get another and then start it over one more time. I think I cried as much as he did. We hated seeing our poor little guy in pain. He slept for a while afterwards and then, seemed to be a little warm and in some pain. After 1 dose of tylenol, he was back to his happy, smiling self. He hasn't needed any more Tylenol since, so I'd say he's reacted pretty well to his first round of shots.
I'm right now counting down my minutes until the end of the school day as my students are working on a coloring page (yes, high schoolers still like to color!). 13 minutes till I go home and see my baby!

2 Months Old
Wow! He's growing so fast. We can't believe it's been 2 months already. Those first few days are already distant memories.
What's new with Kason?
Well, he's sleeping longer at night, although he is also starting to fight going to sleep at night. He is smiling at EVERYTHING these days. It is so wonderful to see those smiles. I think I actually even got a little snicker out of him today. Hopefully, it won't be too long before we got those big belly laughs.
He weighs 13 lbs!!! That's 5.5 more than he was at birth. We will get an official weight at the dr. on Monday. Poor thing will also be getting his 2 month shots on Monday and it is also the day I go back to work. I miss my kiddos at school, but I am so sad about leaving him, even if it is just a few hours a day. Thankfully, our good friend, Lauren, will be here to help us out for a few weeks so we can avoid daycare for a while.
I am going to try better to update more often, so check back soon. I'll leave you with a few pics for today. Don't forget...check out www.wildflowerhunter.net for the most current pics and www.jumpcut.com/kyleottinger for the most recent videos.
