This picture was actually taken a couple of weeks ago...but he is sure liking the floor more now. He use to HATE being on his tummy. Now that he is trying to army crawl, more like shift his weight from side to side to get somewhere crawl...or he just rolls and rolls...and he now rolls from either side which is BIG for him since he use to ONLY roll to the left.
Today was his well baby appointment with his pediatrician and all went well. He weighed in at 19 lbs 3 oz (that was fully clothed) and was 27 inches long. YAY! He is doing great with weight gain and length. On a typical chart he is in the 45th percentile for weight and 30th percentile for height...I need to check the DS chart, haven't done that yet. He had his iron checked and iron levels were fine...also received 2 shots and didn't even cry...what a little champ! Overall he had a GREAT check-up...doctor was very pleased with all his therapist reports and even gave me a pat on my back and said ," You are doing a very good job!" That was nice. So, we don't have to go back until he is 1 years old! WOW...I can't believe he will be one in 3 1/2 months??? Where does the time go? We have his physical therapy tomorrow and I will hopefully remember my camera and capture his little workout!
He is sure getting attached to his big brother and big sister...everytime they come up to him he wants to either give them kisses or just shakes with excitement! I just LOVE watching their relationships already...Cody always tells him " I just love you so much Brayden..." And Kaylee is FOREVER in his face kissing him and telling him how much she loves him as well. Brayden really is lucky to have these 2 for a brother and sister. I am very blessed to have all 3 of these kids.
Well, the sun was out today and it was beautiful...something like 57 degrees...nice. Everyone is feeling good this week...Jared left for Las Vegas for 4 days, so the kids and I will miss him. It has been so nice for so long that his traveling had cut way back...so I really can't complain. This is a busy time for him, so he needs to be there.
We had some excitement here in Fresno...Extreme Home Makeover is here this week and a home is being built across the street from my friend...she has been keeping us updated with all the pictures she is taking and all the fun of the 24/7 chaos going on. She has personally met some of the design team...they are building a house for a wonderful family of a single mom that was born with no legs, partial arm and only has one full functioning arm...she has 4 children. She had a hard upbringing, living in foster care...she is one giving person now and deserves this fabulous home. I personally don' t have any pictures...but this show will air sometime in March of 2009.

He is doing great! He's looking more and more handsome too :) It's good he has a great relationship with his brother and sister. Lillian tolerates Charlie, but loves Katie!
Well, as for eating, Lillian eats just about whatever we are eating. But for snacks, like I said in my blog, she loves MUM's http://www.babymummum.com.au/) You can probably find them at any grocery store. She loves Cheerios too,which I think is helping her with fine motor skills. There is a big difference now from just a month ago.
But, it looks like Brayden is following the same path as Lillian! Which is always a good...LOL.
Oh my goodness -- I know he is cute but every time a see a new picture I just have to smile! He is a doll. So glad to hear that everything is going so well, he really is growing up fast. That is so cute how he and his siblings interact with one another. I can't wait until Gage has some!
Extreme Home Makeover?! I have to admit, that show is one of my weaknesses! I just love it, and it always makes me cry! I can't wait to watch it, you guys will have to go get on TV when they bring the family home!! haha
