2 month checkup

Mason had his 2 month checkup today (at 10 weeks). He is 11 lb 12 oz and 24.5 inches. (birth was 7-4 and 21 inches).
Everything looks good. He may be having some trouble with a muscle on the right side of his neck. It seems to be too tight and he doesn't like to turn his head that way. So we'll make a trip to the chiropractor to see what's going on.
Fortunately we are able to spread his vaxes out so he only got one shot and did okay. (Thanks Ed for distracting the other two!). Wyatt and Natalie were quite concerned about him but happy that they weren't getting poked, too. They asked me about 20 times while we were waiting, just to make sure!

I was going to say "two months already?" but then I thought about it and it doesn't seem surprising at all, it just seems to me like you've always been a family of five. He's such a good fit for you guys. Definitely a blessing from God for your family! Hmmm...I've never heard of a tight muscle in a baby before, but it sort of makes sense. Think of the position he must have been in for months before he was born, it's surprising more babies don't have those kinds of issues. Let us know how it goes with the chiro. Hopefully he'll be able to give you some suggestions of some things you could do at home!
It's so cute that Wyatt and Natalie were worried about him (and themselves too). They're such good siblings!
