In the red corner weighing in at 16lbs!!!

Yuri's two month well check was today and here are his stats:
Weight- 16 lbs 3oz
Length- 26.5 in 

Just for comparison, Nico's stats at 2 months were:
Weight- 14 lbs 15 oz
Length- 25 in

Nico grew more than Yuri did in the same amount of time.  Nico's growth in length was 4 inches by 2 months where Yuri only grew 3.5 inches.  Nico had also gained 6lbs 4oz, whereas Yuri has only gained 5lbs 12oz.

Not that I'm complaining- Yuri is definitely keeping up his own pace.  He is still well above the 95th percentile so as long as he stays above it then he'll be on track with his own growth pattern. 

When the doctor came into the room he glanced at Yuri then down at his growth chart.  He then said, "Oh!  I was thinking he wasn't that big for a 4 month old."  When he looked at Yuri he assumed he was in for his 4 month well check, but when he saw the growth chart said he was in the 95th percentile he thought- well for 4 months old he doesn't look like a 95%.  But for a TWO month old- yes he certainly IS that big.
So now here are some photos of my big boy and his big brother.

Here is the big boy!

Grammy was making him laugh. 

Such a happy baby!  And strong too- look at that head control.

My boys- just hanging out making a mess and being silly, the perfect way to spend a day.

Time for some really big boy pics-
Nico wanted to wear his old hat which is obviously too small, but he wanted to make sure I got a picture of it.  He is so silly.

He even wanted one of the back.  It says "Life is good"

Nico has been taking a lot more photos lately- here are a few of his favorite things:

Mater and McQueen
