Progress Report - 2 Months

Yesterday we had our 2 month well-baby check up. Not only did the little monkey have his weight and height measurements taken it also meant our first round of vaccinations.

Y.I.K.E.S. Not a fun doctor's visit, to say the least. I'm not sure who experienced more pain when the shots were administered, the little dude or me. And, the rest of the afternoon/evening was by far one of the most challenging. Fussy doesn't even TOUCH the description of the little man's mood.
After arriving home from our appointment...
The little monkey was spent. Apparently, so was mommy.
Vaccinations are rough going!
Here are the stats for my big guy, as of yesterday:
Height: 24 3/4 inches (93rd percentile)
Weight: 13.4 pounds (82nd percentile)

A while back we noticed a lump on the right side of the monkey's neck. An ultrasound confirmed it is torticollis, which is a shortened neck muscle. The shortened muscle causes the little guy to have trouble turning his head to the right, and leaves the little man sleeping with his head facing the left. Five times a day we have to knock out physical therapy, which my big guy HATES. Poor little monkey. :(
