2 month doctor's appointment
3 shots! Yuck!! My son is 10lbs 8.5oz and 22.5" He's in the 50 percentile for height and head circumference and 25 percentile for weight. The doctor is not worried and she put him on his tummy- no crying- and before she could ask if he could roll... he did! She was impressed at how strong his neck is. He screamed bloody murder when they stuck him with those needles and I tried not to cry for my infant boy- helpless as he is. We are now home, cuddling...

Week 9/Two Months
Xander is growing so fast. He is such a beautiful boy. His smiles are getting bigger and bigger and he looks around quite aware of the world. He loves to be held and loved. He has been sleeping quite a bit.
He's in cloth diapers. I purchased some smaller ones so that he could be in them now instead of waiting for another month or so. It is cutting back on the cost of disposables and we can't smell them as much. He is our greatest joy and we are excited to see him grow and change.
I went to Yankton yesterday and spent the whole day going to garage sales. I purchased so many baby clothes. I love how cute they are and, at .25- .50 each, I couldn't pass them up. Xander has clothes through the age of 2 years.

Tomorrow's my son's 2 month doctor appointment. He's up for some shots- not looking forward to that.
Today everyone's talking about what happened 10 years ago. I was in bed. My alarm had gone off and I was putting off getting up and getting ready for work. My roommate came running in, yelling something about the Oklahoma bombing and how it was all the same. I got up and started to get ready, not understanding what she was talking about. She came running back again and I followed her to the tv. I was shocked. How could this happen in America?
Once at work, we all stood around the tv and watched the world unfold. I worked in a country club and I remember the members dismissal of what was going on. We watched and waited for a phone call from a friend and previous employee who was working in New York as a nanny. The next day there was a request to hold off on anymore blood being donated as there was not enough storage space. Our state had filled all of the blood banks...
