The Baby: 2 months Little Monster: 18 months

We celebrated The Baby turning 2 months and Little Monster turning 18 months in January. I can't believe how big they are getting, so quickly.
The Baby weighed in at 11 pounds, 6 ounces and he's 23 3/4 inches long (25th and 75th percentiles respectively). Little Monster finally tipped the 20 lb mark, weighing in at 22 pounds even and 33 inches tall. She's in the 50th percentile for everything (except her big head, which was in the 75th - she has a good size head, ha!).
Little Monster had to get her last Hep B shot and The Baby had to get 3 shots and 1 oral vaccination. Little Monster was an absolute mess, but the wonderful nurse whisked her away to retrieve a sucker, which made her a very happy girl. (She was not so happy when I threw it away before getting in the car.) The Baby's look of betrayal nearly broke my heart, but I nursed him right away and he was good to go.
I'll never go to a doctor's appointment with both little ones again!
We're getting back into the swing of things after our vacation, and I started babysitting my nephew, L, last week. Today marks the end of 2 weeks watching him - and it really hasn't been too bad. I just do what I need to do with both boys and I feel like all I do is change diapers and feed somebody. Par for the course. In a few years, they'll all be out of diapers. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. :) I can't bear the thought of everyone growing up...
