New Car Seat

Braxton has graduated from his infant car seat to a BIG BOY car seat! He is soooooo much happier in his boy boy car seat!

A day at the park!

We took Braxton to the park for a fun family outing. Out neighborhood has an AWESOME park. We played and had a blast. It is crazy how a simple trip to the park is an amazing memory!

A Day At Work With Daddy!

Braxton and I have gone into the store a couple times in the last week. He is like the newest member of the store's team. Our regular customers are excited to meet Braxton and he enjoys the attention. Our Staff is great with Braxton. Stephen and Ramon our two guy employees even hold him. Anthony was holding Braxton while making a few phone calls. I captured the the perfect picture of the two of them working! We can tell already Braxton takes going to work very serious!

A Cold Saturday

This Saturday it was cold......well Texas cold!!! It was in the 50's! We had plans to do yard work and to have a family day at the park. We decided to go ahead and trim the hedges and pull the weeds despite the cold. It really wasn't that cold, but the wind was crazy. I wanted to plant flowers and lay the weed and feed. We decided to hold off for a few more weeks for that. I wanted to help so we bundled Braxton up. We really haven't bought him a lot of 3-6 winter stuff since it gets warm early in TX. Last week we hit our first day in the 80 as a matter of fact it hit 89 on Thursday. Thankfully my Aunt Debbie sent Braxton the outfit he had on a and few other AWESOME gifts for Christmas. I thought Braxton looked so cute I had to post these pictures even though I did a post a few days ago.

Thanks Aunt Debbie for buying him a few winter clothes in 3-6 months they really saved us this week!

4 Months Old

On Wednesday we took Braxton to the doctor for his four month visit. The doctor was so excited to see him. Dr. Cepeda said that she couldn't believe how much he had grown in the month that had past. With Braxton's acid reflux issue we had been seeing her at least twice a month since he was born up to his third month. The doctor said that you want the baby to be healthy so we don't have to seed him, but she missed him. I thought that was super sweet. Braxton's doctor is AWESOME! At the visit he was weighted and measured. Our little boy grew a lot. He is in the 83%for height and the 30% for weight. LONG AND SKINNY!!!!! She always spends a lot of time with him to make sure all is well. She likes to see him eat, play, and tests his motor skills. While she was trying to do his exam he kept getting upset because he likes to stand and hates to lay down. She would lay him down and check his ears then pick him so he can stand, then lay him down to check his joints and then pick him up to stand. She said that his ability to stand as well as he can is amazing. He can hold himself up on things for about 5 minutes and can stand all day if you help support him. She said she would not be surprised if he walked at 9 months. She said he may crawl a little late because he hates to do tummy time......well he HATES any activity that doesn't involve standing. After the whole exam she said well you two have a very advanced child. She said that his body isn't developing as fast as his motor skills. She said it is okay to let him stand all the time. She said that it will make learning to walk easier. She said his legs are still forming so it should be difficult for him to stand. She pointed out that his feet still turn out a little bit. She said this is appropriate for his age. This just makes it difficult to stand. She said on all the motor skills tests she did she was surprised at how far along he is. We always thought he was super smart. I think every mother does though. When the doctor told us he was advanced it wasn’t a surprise. The other good news she gave us was that he will not need his acid reflux medication much longer. She said as his weight increases the medication will be less effective and is natural way to take him off of it. She said by his 6 month exam he will be done. Thank God it cost us an arm and a leg each month. She also told us to increase his cereal feeding from once a day to twice. She said he will be ready for baby food in a month as well. Braxton did get a few shots at that visit. The poor kid doesn't do well with shots. He has to be pumped with Tylenol for 48 hours. We feel so BAD for him. He just cries and wines majority of the 48 hours following his shots.

I have added a few pictures! Enjoy!

Happy Valentines Day!
