8-week Checkup

Alexander had his 8-week checkup today, including that classic of parental betrayal, his first immunizations. He's doing well. For the two or three of you who care, he is in the 91st percentile for weight (13.4 pounds), 75th for head circumference (40.2 centimeters), and 50th for length (22.4 inches).
And he's smiling a lot now. It's really cute when James says "He's smiling at me!" (James has often said this when Alex was clearly not smiling at him.)

It is sweet that James wants him to be smiling at him! Such a cute baby Alexander is. And I love the name.
