Braedyn's Latest Photos

While Honey and Sashi were in town, we took Braedyn to get his pictures made. Take a look at Mr. Handsome...

Allen thinks this whole helmet thing is good practice for Pee Wee Football. I am not so convinced yet, but it sure makes a cute picture!!

Also of note, Braedyn went for his 6 month check up today. He passed with flying colors; here are his stats:

WEIGHT: 16.141/2 (25%)

LENGTH: 27 (80%)

HEAD:17 1/2 (65%) This was actually an inch increase from 2 months ago--it shows how well his helmet is working by filling out his flat area!

I really like our doctor here. She chatted with me for almost an hour! Her only point of contention is Braedyn's weight. He is a little low for his height, which is actually suprising with all that he is eating. So, we started adding in lunch today (he had pumpkin in honor of Thanksgiving coming up). She said that we would look at his weight again next time, and hopefully he will have gained a bit more and be more balanced with his height.

And also important news: Last night Allen and I found TWO TEETH poking through his little gums (which explains our sleepless nights)! Yea Braedyn!!
