Evan had his two month two week check up yesterday. He weighed 12lbs 2 ozs and is 24 inches long! I can't believe how much he has grown. The medicine for his reflux is working well and he is eating much better. Also he is back to sleeping 11pm to 7am. The doctor wants us to work on getting him to take 4-6 ozs at a feeding and sleeping 10-12 hours straight at night. His next appointment isn't until the four month check up so we have some time to work on it. He got four shots and one oral vaccine yesterday. Poor little guy reacts so strongly to vaccines! He has been running a fever, not eating well, crying in pain, gassy, swollen, red thighs, etc. He also is very congested which doesn't help anything. Gone is our smiling happy little boy for now! We moved him into our room last night so I could keep a close eye on him. Bless his heart, even when he isn't feeling well he sleeps well which I thank the Lord for! He has been so alert and happy since we got his reflux treated. We are amazed at how alert he is and how aware he is of his surroundings. When we were up north he would be crying while someone was holding him and looking around for Daddy or Mommy and be comforted the minute one of us picked him up. We had not realized until then how much he knows us. Here in Fl he doesn't really see that many people (outside of Grandma and Grandpa White, Gigi and Pa, and Justin and I) and has really gotten to know us. When we arrived home Thursday evening I carried him into the house and turned the lights on as I went through the rooms. He started looking around and then got a big grin on his face as if to say "I'm home!". He was smiling and giggling all evening!
