Happy Two-Month Birthday!

...if months are four weeks long, anyway. Tor is eight weeks old today, and we paid the pediatrician a visit this morning. Here's the lowdown compared with his stats from his one-week visit:
  • Height: 22.5" (one week: 20.5")
  • Weight: 10 lb. 4.5 oz. (one week: 7 lb. 3 oz.)
  • Head circumference: 37.8 cm. (one week: 34.9 cm.)
  • Vaccines received:
    • Hepatitis B
    • Polio
    • Pneumococcal disease
    • Diptheria, tetanus, & pertussis (whooping cough)
    • Rotavirus
    • HIB (Haemophilus influenzae type B)

Here's the big guy at 15 minutes old:                                 At one week:

These days, he has a definite personality. He likes being changed...
...having tummy time...


...being naked...





...and helping with chores.



He dislikes waking up hungry.

  2. I was just watching "the girl who kicked the hornet's nest", the first in the "the girl with the dragon tattoo" series and there is a character who's name is Torsten. He's a good government official who helps her.
    I was also looking into the etymology of his name It comes from the god Thor and the Swedish word for stone - sten, so Thor's stone or hammer.
