My goodness, it has already been almost two weeks since we took Boston to the doctor for his two month visit! Apparently, he is "thriving." He weighed in at 16 lbs 12 oz. (That is 2 pounds more than Stephen was at this same age). This is off the percentile charts, so Scott jokingly asked the doctor if that meant that Boston was obese. The doctor laughed and said no, that he was "thriving" and that he was the size of a six month old. He is in the 90th percentile for his height and the 64th percentile for his head circumference. No wonder my back hurts when I carry him around for any length of time! Well, we love him no matter what size he is such a sweet and adorable little baby and he smiles and coos all of the time now. He is sleeping all night long - I feed him at 10:00, put him to bed by 10:30 and he sleeps until about 7:00! I know, I am spoiled, but hey, he is the size of a six month baby so shouldn't he sleep like one? The doctor seemed suprised that Boston was still as big as he was even though he was sleeping all night - he must have thought that I was feeding him every two or three hours all night still. The doctor kept laughing and saying, "wow!" He also told me that I must be making some major quantities of milk - to which Scott said, "yeah, it's chocolate milk - all she eats is chocolate!" Well, that is not true...exactly....
These pictures were taken one day while we were doing laundry - hense the lack of clothing! I must say that Stephen's smile is particularly winning in both of these pictures - I love my little boys!

If only obese adults got told they were "thriving"- they'd love that! But it's so not true for adults, but luckily it is for babies! I've heard, that doctors want CHUNKY babies, and skinny kids, so it looks like your little family is RIGHT on track!
OH MY STARS those boys are too cute! I love that Boston is a CHUNK! I only hope mine is that chunky!! I would love it!!
So cute and so big! Crew just barely came in at 19lbs! So funny how different kids are! They are cute boys!
