Cooper had his 2 month check-up last week and I'm happy to say that he is healthy and strong. The doctor was surprised that Cooper was only two months old...I guess he is a big boy. He weighed in at 13lbs 4oz (80th percentile) and he has grown to a wopping 24 1/2 inches long (95th percentile). I guess he is big for his age, but he doesn't seem "chunky" to me. Okay, his thighs might have a little extra meat on them and his chin has a partner (another chin), but he is still skinny in the middle section.
Well, with the two month appointment comes the first round of shots. Cooper was already upset about being woken up from his nap to have the doctor and nurse check him out so when they began giving him the shots, he was not a happy camper. For a few seconds he just looked at us with shock in his eyes as if he was saying "Why?". After that came the crying. The only side effect I noticed was that he was a bit more sleepy than usual, but luckily there was no fever or sickness. We have to go back this week for another shot because they were out of it when we went. Let's hope he doesn't have a reaction to this one!
Cody and I have really missed the cabin since the last time we went (September '07) so we were ecstatic to be able to go up this past weekend. I quickly realized that taking a baby changes 
everything. Before, Cody and I could fit everything we needed into a small suitcase. Now, we had the small suitcase, 
pack & play, backpack, bags of diapers, and much more. I couldn't believe how quickly it all adds up. Whitney and Chris and their 2 year old Elizabeth went with us along with Sam and Shannon and their 4 month old David. There were a lot of dirty diapers and it seemed like the babies were never asleep at the same time. If David was asleep, Cooper would be awake. If Cooper was awake, David would be asleep. Despite this, we still managed to have a great time.
