J&J 2 months old!

James
Head: 39 cm 47th%ile
Weight: 11# 10 oz 31st %ile (!!!!)
Height: 21.5in 2%ile

James started smiling this past week!! He still bores a hole through me with his stares, as if he's trying to memorize my every move.  He has a firm grip and will hold onto the bottle, my shirt, my hair, whatever he can get his little fingers around.  I love wrapping my arms around our little moose, he is such a solid little guy! I just love the feel of his weight on my chest. :)  James got a clean bill of health at his 2 month check up!  He has his first set of vaccines on board and took them like a man! Luckily, aside from a slight increase in fussies on the day of, there were no adverse reactions. :)


Julia
Head: 37cm preemie scale 45%ile (regular scale 15%ile)
Weight: 8# 11 oz 40%ile (2%ile)
Height: 20.5 inches 11%ile (0%ile)

Julia's smiling!! She is also beginning to coo as of a few days ago!  She, too, tracks my every move with her eyes.  Jules has started helping me hold her bottle, too.  These guys are starting to become a tad more interactive, which is so exciting. :)  Juju also passed her two month well check with flying colors...The vaccines weren't fun for about 15 seconds and then she was a-ok.  I am so grateful that these guys responded so well.  Our night time sleep has been pretty predictable...I have managed a couple of four hour stretches, but I'm still waiting for something longer.  I automatically recalculate their gestational age based upon their due date, which leaves them about a month old; so I don't expect that sleep will improve much for another month or so...Just grateful to be getting what I do. :)  The day after I get a 6 hour stretch will be the day I conquer the world!

I LOVE reading all the little firsts (grabbing, cooing) and you make me want another with the comment about the weight of James on your chest. ;-) Pure heaven! Thanks for sharing every little sweetness!
