Luke was 2 months old on the 18th. So today, the 20th, we went to see his pediatrician, Dr. Stephens. It was a good visit. Luke is growing along. He now is 22 in long and weighs 11lbs 4oz. We talked about night sleep schedules. At any point I'm ready I can start letting him cry it out at night and make him sleep all night long. He's started waking up once to eat at night ( most of the time anyway!!) and I'm doing fine with that so I think we'll coast here for a while. Perhaps after the new year we'll try for all night. Luke also got 3 shots and one oral. Dr. Stephens said he'd prolly be fussy and feverish. Well he was right. Poor baby has a temperature 99.8 and is fussy when not asleep. Good news: he's been sleepy today!! I thought I had infant Tylenol at home so we didn't pick any up while in town. However, we got home and I realized I'd bought Childrens Tylenol (ages 2-11) ...which is not for Luke. So Kyle went back into town to get some medicine for Luke and he's feeling much better. He is able to deal with lifes struggles, like tooting and burping, diaper changes and moving around.
The Sandovals are coming over tonight for supper and to exchange gifts. Cindy's bringing me her shirts that she wore while she was nursing her boys that no longer fit. I'm excited. Maybe I can stop buying clothes that I KNOW will be too big when I'm done nursing!!
