Leo's two-month checkup

Leo had his two-month checkup this morning. Here are his "stats":
  • Height: 24" (still in the 90th percentile)
  • Weight: 11 lbs 9 oz (in the 50th percentile but still healthy)
  • Head: 15.5 inches (also the 50th percentile)
Leo has a touch of eczema, which we will be able to treat by eliminating all dyes and fragrances from his soap, detergent, lotions, etc. and using steroid cream. Otherwise, he is in perfect health--the pediatrician said his head shape looks great, all organs operating normally, and he is a bit ahead of the curve in developmental things like grasping and sleep. To keep him healthy, Leo got his first set of vaccinations today. It was just two shots but he was quite upset for a few minutes. He's fine now; we're watching him for reactions (fever, crankiness) but he should pull through just fine.
