Luke weighs almost 12 lbs & got his shots

Our precious boy is now 8 weeks old and has gained 4 pounds since he was born! He's getting to be quite the little chunker, eats great and is perfectly healthy, thank God. He's also grown 2" since birth.

He received his first round of vaccinations, and boy, was that hard to watch. Our baby got 4 shots in his thighs and was screaming so hard! Once we got him settled, he slept for over 4 hours. Luke slept a lot yesterday, which is apparently quite normal after infant vaccinations.

The really awesome part is that Luke ate before bedtime at 10:30, stayed up until midnight, and then slept until 6:00 am! Marty fed him 4 ounces, then he slept until 10:15 am! I slept from midnight until 9:30 and it was such a blessing. The sleep has really helped me, because I've been fighting off a cold since last week, and I felt great today!
