My Little Big Man

This morning we had our 6-8 week Pediatrician visit (he's 7 weeks tomorrow) and we had the dreaded vaccination shots...FOUR holes in my poor baby's thighs. But he was a Champ and took it like a little big man-he wailed upon the actual stick, but then I immediately nursed him and he was fine. So far today, we haven't had a fever (I did when I was little), and he had a terrible 30-minute bout of crying but he's been eating and sleeping well throughout the day.

My little Mister is a healthy 10 lbs 12 oz and ranks in the 50th percentile for his weight, length, and head circumference...we're doing something right.
Here he is sporting his fancy appliqued bib, a giveaway won from Monkey Bubbles Monograms. Adorable shirts, diaper covers, burp cloths, and of course bibs found here: http://monkeybubblesmonograms.blogspot.com/

*EDIT*

At our 6-8 week well visit, Mason's stats are...

Length: 22.5 inches

Weight: 10 lbs, 12.5 oz

Head Circumference: 15.5 inches

He's in the 50th percentile for all categories

Colton has that EXACT same bib... same pattern and everything! Haley made it for me too.

Mason is so stinkin cute. If he wakes up fussy tonight, give him some tylenol. That helps after shots...
