Growing Boy!

Braxton is 4 months now i can't believe it! We headed to the the Doctors for his checkup this week and when they put him on he scale I just laughed! We are definitely a good eater! The Dr. was very impressed with Braxton and especially his vocal skills. When the Dr. came in he said "Well hello Braxton how are you doing?" Braxton just started talking away! The Dr. reassured me that he is exactly where is should be at! He is very impressed with him and says he couldn't be happier with his progress!



18 Lbs 3 Oz 90% (He had a wet diaper so I am giving him the benefit of the doubt for those 3 Oz)
27 inches long 90%
Head Circ. 44 1/2 '' 97%
4 Months Today... I tried to get him to smile but failed! He had just woken up from a nap so he wasn't too happy with the camera.

He is so much fun and makes us laugh each day! I am so in love with this little guy I can hardly stand it!! Here are a few things he is doing.

Makes the "Indian" noise when we tap his mouth and stroke his lips.
Loves to splash like a maniac in the tub
Loves to watch Mikey Mouse Club House
Almost rolling from back to stomach
Loves to Laugh
Found his scream
Loves to pull our faces in and give kisses and talks to us
Reaches for people (mostly mom)
Loves Anticipation
Puts EVERYTHING in his mouth

I finally got Braxtons 3 Month pictures scanned! Here are a few













SURGERY!

We just wanted to thank everyone for all their concerns and well wishes. My surgery (Gallbladder) went well. I ended up having 21 stones. One of these I had just passed the night before so surgery took a little bit longer. Recovery is never fun but I am feeling okay, I just wish they didn't have to pump my stomach full of air. This has now turned in to trapped gas and has settled in my rib cage and shoulders! Once this passes I know I will feel a ton better! Braxton's having a little rough time adjusting to not having me hold him and feed him but hopefully it passes soon or this could be a long 3 weeks! Thanks again to everyone for your love ad support!
