Graham had his two-month visit to the pediatrician today and received three shots. He was not pleased. But he weighed in at a thumping great 13 pounds, 8 ounces--in the 90th percentile, the little glutton. And he's tall, too: 24 inches in length--again in the 90th percentile. So at least he's well-proportioned. His head measurement was only in the 75th percentile, which suggests that even though he's a big boy, he isn't getting a big head about it.
Things are going very well on the sleep front, as well. He slept for twelve hours last night with only two feedings--including one six-hour stretch--a remarkable accomplishment for so small a person. The next step is getting him to put himself to sleep. The pediatrician suggested today that we start putting him to bed before he's actually asleep; this so that he'll not become dependent on his mummy or dad to go down for the night. A nice thought, but we're still cherishing our precious hours of sleep, so this may have to wait for a while....
