happy 2 month birthday, z! it's about 5am. i finished nursing z, and have been waiting to make sure he stayed asleep, while checking out photos. j has been doing more of the photo uploading & posting, as i rarely have two hands free. this picture made me laugh out loud. it's worth double clicking & looking at up close. z clearly wasn't so happy about his faux-hawk we gave him after his latest bath. so, he's two months today. i'm still not getting enough sleep, and having regular mini break-downs. it's fun. oh well. nobody said parenting was easy, and it's not quite as bad as i thought it would be. z has his 2 month check-up on friday, where he'll get his first round of vaccinations. i'm scared. i haven't had time to do much reading up on vaccinations & the whole autism link. my pediatrician friends say they believe in the traditional vaccination schedule, so i guess that's what we'll do. i just hope it doesn't mess my baby up. it will be interesting to see where he stands on the charts. on monday, i weighed him with me on the scale, and with his diaper, he was 14.5 lbs. he's definitely eating well. if he could just work on the sleeping thing...

He might be messed up for a day or two... J spikes a fever and is generally irritable each time he's had his shots, but I don't think the autism threat is what it was 10 years ago or so. I think that was mainly from mercury content in flu vaccines.
ps, you might give him a dose of infant tylenol an hour before you go.
