Last week Jake turned 2 months old! He went to the Dr on Wed for his 2 month shots and checkup. He now weighs over 11lbs and is 23.5 inches long. He is 36th percentile for weight and 80th percentile for height. The Dr laid him on the table on his tummy at the beginning of the appt and we then had a long conversation with the doctor about feeding and the issues we've been having. By the end of the conversation the doctor was very impressed, saying that babies his age are normally screaming by that point. Jake was very content raising his head and neck and looking around. I told him that Jake was already eating 6oz at feedings when he got a bottle. The doctor said, "that's A LOT." He said he'll probably just be a long and lean guy because he's burning so many calories with how active he is and that he's thriving. So, all went well! It was the first time we'd been back since all of the dreaded weight checks and this time it was actaully a pleasant experience!

He's so adorable! Those are great pictures!
It was so wonderful to get to see him and be able to hold him this weekend. There is nothing like new lives borrowed from heaven to completely soothe the soul after a loss. Thank you for sharing precious Jake with us. He is absolutely beautiful!
