Now he is 2 months old, and has almost doubled his birth weight! We took him for his 2 month old check up last Wednesday. He weighed 14 lbs. 11oz. and was 23 inches long. That puts him in 95th percentile in weight and the 50th percentile in length/height! He is a big healthy boy! He had to get three vaccinations in his legs and one that is a drink, (not sure why that can't all be a drink), but overall did pretty well. Mommy got to nurse him directly after his shots so he felt much better!
It's funny because every time we go to the doctor, or Wyatt does something new, I am always comparing him to his sister. I'll go to her room and dig out her baby book, and compare the two. She was a large baby at birth too, weighing 9lbs. 3oz. and 21 1/4 inches long, (she was OVERDUE). Wyatt has out weighed her at every doctor visit, but is an inch shorter than she was.
They do look a lot a like I think, both having the brown hair and blue eyes. She definitely has my fat toes and he has his daddy's long toes.

I really think their personalities are alike too. Jillian was a great baby, except for the occasional gassy tummy, but she liked to be held a lot, probably due to me holding her all the time!! I was a first time mommy, what else did I have to do! I definitively can't hold Wyatt all the time and for the most part he's good with that, he is a great baby too!
Jillian always slept in a swing for naps during the day, Wyatt will, but we can actually lay him down to sleep, which allows me to get something done!

I am a breastfeeding momma, with her we had some problems in the begining but we were both new at it and it took a couple of weeks to get it down. Him, not the first problem, he is a pro! The nurse at the hospital said it was me and I knew what I was doing, but I totally give that baby boy credit!

Their schedules are the same, nursing ever 4 hours at 6,10,2,6 and taking a bottle from the daddy at 10pm, so they could bond and I could pump to store up milk for daytime at the sitters. I love having him on a schedule, it gives us a routine we can follow and everyone knows what to expect!
They are both great sleepers, both kids started sleeping through the night at about 7 weeks old, that is 11pm to 5:30-6am.
How do you think they compare?
I feel so blessed with these too kiddo's, they complete us. We are one happy family!
