Weight: 13 lbs 4 oz (somewhere around the 85th percentile!!!)
Length: 23 inches
For comparison, here is a link to the results from Claire's two month appointment. Notice the 3 1/2 lb weight difference - crazy!
Just like Claire, he got 5 shots, an oral vaccine, and slept for about two hours straight in his car seat after the appointment. I also managed not to cry - it's so hard to see your baby hurt, even when it's for a good cause.
The night before his appointment he gave us his longest stretch of sleep so far - 7 hours. He regressed a little after his appointment, but he didn't eat well all day. I'm hoping he quickly gets back to the 7 hour (or longer!) mark. Dr. Benbow gave us the okay to start dropping night feedings if he'll go back to sleep without them. So far, he seems to be super hungry when he wakes up, so we'll see how he's doing in a couple of weeks before we start working on that.
Claire also had a visit with the doctor who wanted to check her growth. He was pleased with her progress over the past few months and seems less concerned about her small stature. We still have an appointment with a specialist in a few months to make sure there isn't anything going on that needs to be treated, but we feel like she is just a petite girl who will probably be about the same size as her little brother in a little over a year. :)

It's so hard taking them for their shots. Since it's been a day or so since your posting, I hope he's back to his usual self, with his healthy appetite! He's so sweet.
Love,
Aunt Nancy
