Graham-Bone, the Ham Bone


This post is dedicated to my favorite little guy in the whole world. Today he had to endure the dreaded 8 week shots. I definitely think they are harder on the mom than the child though.

He's right on track with his growth. He's 23 inches long, and weighs 11 lb 8 oz, just above the 50th percentile. He seems just about perfect to me!

This week has been so fun as he has been smiling up a storm. We are beginning to catch glimpses of his personality, which I can't wait to watch come out in full force over the next couple of months.

He is starting to sleep a good 6 1/2 hours at a time at night, which means putting him to bed around 9:30 and feeding again at 4:00 before going back down for a few more hours.

His favorite things are his lamb swing and his playmat. I'm looking forward to him discovering new toys soon.

He has also acquired quite a few nicknames around here...

*stud muffin
*little buddy
*Buster Brown
*peanut
*and Nick's favorite, "Graham-bone, the Ham-bone"

But regardless of what we call him, there is no denying how much we love him!
