Miller Stats
Today was Miller's one month check up with his pediatrician. Here are the stats:
Weight-now up to 10 lbs 7.5 ozs. That's almost 3 full pounds he has gained since birth! He moved up from the 50th percentil to the 75th. Right on track according to the doctor.
Height-now 23 3/4 inches. Another 6 1/4 inches and he will be half as tall as Jess. He grew 2 1/4 inches since birth. Needless to say, he was off the charts on height to begin with and still is.
He had his second hepatitis shot today. I was dreading it but what a trooper! Ryan held him still, the nurse was spectacular and snuck in a quick shot, and NO TEARS (from Miller or Mom). I made sure I couldn't see it. I hate needles and shots for myself and couldn't bare to watch them torture my baby. Thank goodness it wasn't bad. Next month is the 3 shots and one oral he has to take. That will be the rough one.
Other than that, he is healthy and doing great. I really like the doctor's office. The staff is wonderful and the doctor is great. Next week is my 6 week check up with the icky doctor. I already know I won't be posting a glorious tribute to that office or doctor. Maybe the stars will align but I don't expect miracles.
Side note-Miller went to bowling last night and was amazingly good. It was super noisy and he didn't seem bothered by it at all. He was a chic magnet for Jerry (all the ladies wanted to see him). Ryan and I had to do one diaper change and I fed him his bottle there. Not too shabby.
He better sleep like a champ tonight because he has been up almost all day. I think he napped a total of 2-3 hours since he woke up at 8 this morning. Wishful thinking?

At the rate he's growing, you'll have to stop feeding him soon!
He was a trooper at bowling last night; and yeah, Jerry sure did get a lot of attention once he kidnapped Miller. I bet he wishes he'd known that trick before he met me.
Ah, when you want that refreshing smile from babies, who do you turn to?
Miller High Life...the champagne of babies.
Awesome stats. Can't wait to see him (and you!) now that I'm back. I just need to check some shit off my chore list first and then I'll call.
