Jackson is 2 months old

Today, May 3rd, Jackson is 2 months old...

We had our 2 month check-up at the Pediatricians office yesterday. Our boy weighed in at 15.6 lbs. His length measured out at 25" and his head circumference was 41cm. WOW! His height & weight are both in the 95th percentile and his head circumference is in the 90th percentile. And, our Ped, Dr. Michelle Massias, said that Jackson is functioning developmentally at a three & a half month old level. That's our boy! We are so proud.

Things to know about Jackson:
  • He's cooing - THE most wonderful sound ever!
  • He's rolling from his side to his back
  • His head control is really good - getting stronger & having more control every day
  • He's tracking (eye movement)
  • He's learning how to pre-crawl during tummy time
  • He seems to enjoy sucking on his hands, fingers & thumb, especially the thumb
  • He's drooling (pre teething - maybe?)
  • He's smiling (social smile), has been for the past 3 weeks
  • He's laughing - so sweet!
  • He enjoys reading & looking at the pictures (he loves The Runaway Bunny)
  • He loves the ABC song - that's his favorite when his diaper is being changed

  • He loves going for walks in his stroller w. either Mommy, Daddy or his Nana (Kate's Mom) at the helm
