Lucas is 2 months old today even though it feels like we just brought him home from the hospital. The past two months have been amazing. Lucas is starting to hold his head up, make eye contact and (best of all) smile! Thankfully, the novelty hasn't worn off yet and Ryan still adores his baby brother. Although lately he's been showing a bit more jealousy since Lucas is demanding more of my attention. He sounds like a broken record as over and over I hear "put my brother down and play with me!" He has his sweet moments too though-if Lucas is crying Ryan immediately starts singing to him or tries to give him his binky. You can tell by the way that the boys interact that they are already best friends.
My intention was to get lots of pictures of the big 2 month pediatrician appointment. However, once we got there and I had to get him down to just a diaper it was all downhill. He HATES being naked so he screamed the entire time, even a bottle wouldn't calm him down. And then came the shots :( This morning I was thinking about it and I remembered that when Ryan got his shots he cried for a minute until I picked him up and then he was fine. Well, Lucas was another story. He cried & cried and there was nothing I could do to make it better, so then I cried. And to make matters worse, Ryan was so upset that his brother was in this condition that he started crying too!! Luckily Lucas has been sleeping most of the afternoon and I'm hoping Ryan isn't now scarred for life!
OK...so, our chunky monkey is now 11 lbs, 10.08 oz and 23 inches long. He's in the 50th percentile overall.

Ah, well. Guess that explains it!! Poor little guy. Now I am glad you didn't get any pictures. I would have hate to see him so upset. :(
