Brayden had his big boy 1 year old appointment today sharing the appointment with his favorite sister, Ruthie for a not so well appointment.
Our favorite Dr Jarvie walked in and was pleasantly surprised with how much he's growing and how well he interacts with others. He's hitting his milestones very well and talks well for his age- (what?!?!) Guess I need to stop comparing him to his very vocal sister.

I can't wait to hear more and more words from my little man. I just love his voice. He babbles all the time I just love watching him interact with people and try to carry on his own special conversation with them!
After getting over the flu, he lost a few pounds- he weighed in today at 19lbs 8.5 oz which put him at the 7% in weight which went down 8% from where he was at a week ago- kinda crazy!
He's 2' 5" in height. (22%) -- looks like he got more of the Marshall genes. :) Doctor says he could still shoot up and surprise us all- but we'll have to wait and see.
Today he got three shots- he cried as they were administered but then put on a tough face and asked for Cheerios. He did a great job- I'm so proud of my little man!
Brayden also met with his GI doctor this morning- they switched his later afternoon appointment which was so very nice of them! Brayden looks great! The doctor asked a few questions about his reflux which has almost 100% cleared itself up (unless Grandpa is holding him for some reason) Really, from the moment I quit nursing and dairy was out of his system- he's really grown and even though he still spit-up, he appeared so much better and the doctor agreed he's on the right track! He happily told us this would be our last appointment with him as he didn't see any reason to continue meeting with him since things have cleared up nicely! What great news for my little guy. At this point, he will see his allergist and regular pediatrician regularly but other than that, he has a good bill of health! YAY Bray!
Ruthie spent a restless night of sleep in our room last night. After listening to her cough for hours and start to have difficulty breathing, we decided to bring her closer to mommy and daddy just to watch her more closely. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to get her in to see a doctor this am, without making the appt over her lunch/nap time-- but thankfully, mom met me at the appt so I could have both my kids seen earlier rather than later. The doctor was def not my favorite- but I think he is just in saying that she has another episode of the croup- hopefully we'll not have to put her on Steroids and things will clear up quickly. Poor sweet girl.
