Couple Other Things

Getting ready for a nap this morning.

Forgot to mention a couple other things that I wanted to remember. At Braden's 2-month check-up he got his 4 shots. That was awful for both Braden and me! Not only did the shots hurt, but he was really out of it the rest of that day and night. Hopefully Anthony will be here next time. Also, his measurements were:



Weight - 16.02 lbs (>95%)
Length - 24" (75%)
Head - 16" (90%)

Braden caught his first chest cold and the nurse thinks he might have picked it up when he was at the doctor. He went back to the doctor last Monday just to check and make sure it was just a cold and he weighed 16.14 lbs! So, we're guessing that he's 17 lbs at 11-weeks (he was 11-weeks on Thursday)! We call him our "chunk of love!"

I think a benefit of his good size is that he has the weight to get him through the night sleeping. He dropped his 9 pm feeding and now eats 5 times a day and generally goes to bed by 8ish and sleeps until 6 am. So that's nice! We told our Dr. that people ask us what he tells us to do about Braden's weight and he just laughed. He said "Am I supposed to put him on an aerobics routine or tell you to starve him! He's fine!" So in case anyone else was wondering about that - there's the answer.
