2 Month Well Check

Magnus & Ragnar had their 2-month-old well baby checkup today with their pediatrician.  She is happy with their growth and doesn't have concerns with either of them.  She gave me some suggestions for healthy sleep habits, calmed my fears about SIDS and suggested products to help with Magnus' dry skin.  She looked up Magnus' & Ragnar's hip ultrasounds and they were normal.  Now that they are 8 weeks old, she said we can start taking them out in the public, but to still try to avoid places where there will be sick people.  I'm on the fence about taking them to church prior to their blessing... but we'll see.  The boys both received their 1st rotavirus vaccine (oral) and 1st Diphtheria/Tetanus/Pertussis vaccine.  Ragnar liked the oral med (it's in sugar water) and Magnus really disliked it and kept spitting it out.  They both cried with the shot but were calmed quickly and easily after it was over.  I made an appointment to get their other 2 vaccines next week and also set up their 4-month checkup for May.  Without further ado, their stats & pics:
