Traumatic day for our little guy

This morning Jaxon had his 2 month check up and first round of vaccines. I'll start the the fun stuff. My little Jaxi babe (his daddy loves when I call him this ;)) weighed 6 pounds 13 ounces and was 18 inches in length when he was born. At his 2 week check up, he was in the 20th percentile for his head, weight & length. Let's just say we have a large eater on our hands! The doctor has always commented that Jax is a healthy eater. Now, Jax is in the 40th percentile on all 3 things! This does mean he is very proportionate, but it also means he is 23 inches and 12 1/2 pounds. Tonight, Ryan and I had to talk about retiring all newborn size clothes. My little guy is getting so big!

Jaxon also proved to be very active with the doctor. He smiled and was very excited, but also kicked the doctor a few times! The doctor also informed me that he will grow out of the "I love being naked" phase at some point.

Now to the rough stuff. Along with the check up came vaccinations. I knew it would be tough. We gave him the tylenol to prep. He screamed through the shots, but made it through and I was able to comfort him to an extent. After the appointment, I headed into work and dropped Jax off at the school to spend the afternoon with dad. I received a call at work that Jaxon had been crying for over 30 minutes. I felt so bad hearing my baby crying in the background. We have never been unable to console him so I decided to call the doctor to see if we needed to look for anything since we were heading into the weekend. Of course I get an old classmate in which I had to inform her I'm just a crazy first time mom! She said everything sounded fine, but to keep an eye on him. A nurse also called me back after I got home to check in. I'm sure they deal with this all the time, but I was still emabarrassed!

Since I have been home Jaxon has had a full bottle and another dose of Tylenol. He has also been sleeping comfortably since his bath about 2 hours ago. Hopefully he sleeps well tonight and gets to feeling better! Apparently Wrigley felt he needed to get some rest tonight too. He also had a tough week early on. He threw up for 24 hours and gave us a scare! We took him to the vet who gave us 2 types of medicine and special soft food. You could tell he was much better the next day as he was eating paper I had left out on the end table!
