11 Weeks Check Up

Braylen finally made it to the doctor for his 2 month well check-up.  He is closer to 3 months old than 2 months at this point.  Oh well.  Some month we will be on track!  Let me tell you, two kids at The Pediatric Center for 1.5 hours was tricky.  I left a hot, flustered mess with 2 screaming kids.  Braylen was much better than Evie and she didn't have anything done.  Sigh.  She is bound to get the flu after laying face down on the floor during crying fit #3. 
Stats:

Weight: 12 lbs, 10 oz (31%)

Height: 23.25 inches (26%)

Head:  39.5 cm (33%)

He dropped a little in percentages, but no concerns from Dr. Burke.  She was impressed how much he has grown considering he only eats for 5 minutes at each feed.

not quite as strong and beefy as Popeye

Braylen rolled onto his side last night for the first time!

We have given up on the crib and decided to stick with what works to get him to sleep- the swing.  We moved it out of our room into his room.  He slept 6 hours last night!  We'll gradually lessen the speed and hopefully he'll move to his crib by 4 months.  He wants his arms out to suck his hands.  Fine except he can't stay asleep.  Still swaddled tightly at night. 

he loves looking around flat on his back, but won't sleep that way

Braylen still has a full head of hair.  Daddy is jealous

depending on the way we comb it after bath,
he can look like an old man :)
Even though he has frequent rotten-egg smelling gas, I love him more and more each day.
