We took Finn in for his 2-month checkup. The fun news: He's in the 87th percentile in height and 85th in weight. So we'll say 86th overall. He's a good eater and shot way up in percentiles since week 2. The not-so-fun news: 3 immunizations! But he did very well, and within 3 minutes he was calm, and within 15 minutes (including some milk from Katie) he was back to normal. The doctor said that his "neck deficiency" was normal for a 2-month-old. So we can look forward to the day he has a real neck and maybe only one chin.
Finn is 24 1/4 inches and 13 lbs, 14 oz. He has a long way to go to get to 20 lbs at 4 months, like his daddy. My head was way bigger though.
Quite interestingly, one's head basically stays the same size, relative to others of the same age, with time. Finn's head circumference is in the 70th percentile, and should always stay there, approximately. Unless he hits the HGH too hard like Barry Bonds.
In other news, the professorin' is going well. It is a long commute door-to-door (55 to 60 minutes), but I can handle it. I'm excited.

Besides the crack about the "neck deficiency" (words he actually used), he said "There's no such thing as baby obesity!" So, yeah, he's nice and chubby.
