2 months already?

Where have the last eight weeks gone? The early days with Pierce are going much too quickly, and it's hard to believe I am almost halfway through my maternity leave. I am savoring each day with our little man!

We just got back from the doctor's office where Pierce passed his 2 month checkup with flying colors. He grew an inch and a half since last month and is now 24 in. long. He is tall for his age, and is still putting all of his growth into his height and head size. His weight is still low (9 lbs 12.5 oz.), though he is gaining at about 4 oz. a week. The pediatrician feels like he has some catch up to do, but is not worried as he is hitting all of his developmental check points. (she says he is really smart!) He got his first immunizations today (4!) and is drowsily sleeping away the afternoon.

Here is a video of Pierce using his strong legs to play on his activity mat:
