Little big boy

sawyer had his two month checkup today and he has gained 6 pounds since birth! he was 12lb 14 oz today (6lb 14oz and 19 inches at birth) which put him at the 82nd percentile for weight. he was 23 3/4 inches and at the 79th percentile for height- he might have some hope after all for not being a shrimp like me! his head was still tiny - 7th percentile! crazy! dr. w said its nothing to worry about since it has been consistent and that zach and i probably have small heads...he also said not to worry about the green poo as long as sawyer stays happy. i did say before he was born i didnt want him to have a giant head! well he dosent! sawyer did very well and even gave april the nurse lots of smiles. he had to get three shots which was really not as bad as i anticipated..he calmed down right away when i nursed him and fell asleep long enough for me to run over to the ER to drop off thank you notes from my shower and photocopy the sched. YIKES! im back on the newest sched! april 21 is my 1st day back. once we got home he smiled and acted like nothing had even happened!
as usual sawyer was a big hit in the clinic and the ER- people just love babies! a cute little girl who was probably 2 years old saw him and said "baby!" very happily- so adorable! yesterday at walmart a little girl blew him a kiss :) he didnt seem to notice- either that or he isnt into redheads..im not sure.
we had a fabulous shower last night with zachs aunts/ cousins and it was a blast. sawyer was very happy/ not fussy and got lots of adorable stuff- zach always calls it "stash" when we get home from a shower and he is always amazed at how much stuff we get at showers- we are blessed! one of his aunts and cousins picked him out a swing for the yard and im so glad- i put that on our registry with zach in mind and he was really excited about it when he unloaded the car. he cant wait untill sawyer can play in the yard with him and cooper dog (which of course is what they did while we were at the shower). right now zach is in the process of helping the little steam drain better...or something.
now sawyer is napping on my tummy and i fully intend upon letting him- he had a big day and im all about attachment style parenting :)
