2 Months Old & A Big Weekend

Well, Benjamin has hit another milestone. He's now 2 months old. He had his check-up today and it went great. He's in the 65th percentile for both head & weight and 50th for length. He did so great with his shots, he only cried for seconds! Then, when we got home, he nursed and passed out! He's been sleeping for 2 hours! He weighed 12 pounds, 9 ounces and measured 23 inches long!

This past weekend, we visited Eric's family in Atkins for a long weekend. We headed up on Wednesday night and Benjamin slept through the night. He ate at 8pm, fell asleep at 9pm and didn't wake up until 5am.
Thursday, we went to visit some of my old friends at KCRG. It was nice to stop in and see people I haven't seen in a while. Later that evening, Eric's cousins and their children, and his aunt and uncle came by for a BBQ. What a fun night!

Friday night, we went to a very good family friends' house, Mike & LuAnn Kuennen. Their daughter Angie and her 2 children were there, and so was their son Michael. It was so nice to see them, they are like family to me! Benjamin had another champ night that evening. He ate at 6pm, fell asleep at 8 and woke up at 5am!!

Saturday morning, we made a quick visit to Steph & Kyle's in North Liberty. Kendrick had injured himself so we wanted to check in on him. And, Steph had a basket full of goodies (old toys and tons of books). Then, it was on to New Hampton for a baby shower. Benjamin got tons of great clothes & toys and got to meet the rest of the Kuehn family.

Sunday it was time for the Kuehn family reunion. That's Eric's mom's, Wanda, side of the family! We had such a great time and even got some great photos! Here's a peek at all of the action from the weekend:

  1. That was a busy weekend! I'm so glad we got to see you guys, and finally meet Benjamin.

    What a great checkup too. He's grown a lot in 2 months. Jacob weighed the same at 2 months, but he started out heavier. Way to go, Abbie! :)
