Keanan's Two Month Stats

Our little guy is two months old already! It’s just so hard to believe…especially since he’s the size of four month old. But it’s true and it seems that we’ve turned a bit of a corner – he’s crying less and smiling more – which means that I’m also crying less and smiling more. Bedtime is still a bit of a challenge because he often goes to bed before the big kids, and his big brother has NO inside voice – everything is said at full volume and repeated…a LOT! Luckily, I haven’t had to manage bedtime for all three of them on my own in a couple of weeks, and I’m hoping that we’ll somehow settle into a routine quickly.


So now the exciting stuff…



Weight



  • Keanan weighs 14 lbs (88th percentile)


  • Ellie weighed 12 lbs, 3 oz. (85th percentile)


  • Charlie weighed 11 lbs, 9 oz (40th percentile)


Length



  • Keanan is 25 inches long (95th percentile)


  • Ellie was 24 inches long (95th percentile)


  • Charlie was 23.5 inches long (62nd percentile)


Head



  • Keanan's is in the 76th percentile


  • Charlie's head was in the 59th percentile


So Keanan is the biggest Hirst baby by far, which seems to make him a better sleeper – he’ll usually sleep for a nice 9-11 hour stretch at night and will often sleep until after 8:00 a.m. – if it wasn’t for the older two who wake earlier, I would be the best rested mom of a newborn ever! He's just such a sweet little guy and there is absolutely no chance that he's not going to be spoiled rotten -- his big brother and big sister both love loving on him (sometimes a bit too enthusiastically) and Mom and Dad are smitten too. I just can't wait to see his little personality continue to develop.

Wow, he is indeed a big little guy! Like you say, it's hard to appreciate because he just seems like an older baby until you see a comparable one. He's a keeper!

I'm so glad he is turning off the fuss and turning on the smiles just in time for my visit! :) I love looking at all the stats. He is so big! You are clearly feeding him well!

I'm thinking that at this rate, Keanan will be taller than his mama by age 8.
