Today Asher turned 8 weeks old and we visited the pediatrician. The most exciting part of the appointment for daddy was the weigh in. Asher measured 23.75 inches long, 11.5 lbs and his head was 15.75 inches. According to the charts, Asher is 92-percentile in height, 70-percentile in weight and 42-percentile in head circumference. At 2 weeks he was 75, 50 and 50.
The least fun part were the immunization shots. Asher cried like he’d been stabbed – which he was. One 26 gauge needle in the outside of his left upper thigh, and another in the right. It wasn’t fun for him or mom and dad.
More later. Daddy is taking a big test tomorrow and needs to get back to preparing.
