Only Nine More Shopping Days Until Christmas!

Hello All! Just wanted to update all of you on what we've been up to for the past few weeks or so. Braylon has been doing pretty well with his weight gain. We took him back in today for his follow up with the nutritionist and was elated to hear that, over the past 27 days, he has gained an average of 16 grams per day! The average weight gain per day for a child his age is about 6 grams, so this was wonderful news! That is equivalent to about 1 pound during this timeframe.

A little over a week ago we took Braylon to get his picture taken with Santa. Unfortunately Braylon didn't like the idea and threw a minor fit. We think he's at that age where people dressed up in strange costumes are a bit frightful.

This past weekend, Renee and her sisters spent the majority of the day Saturday baking all sorts of Christmas goodies. There was enough to bring to work to share with our co-workers and also a tray to donate to Harvesters. Later that evening we visited some family friends and their two daughters, Lilly and Lucy. Lucy was born just this past July, but this was the first time meeting her. We all had a great time and it was a blast watching Braylon playing with Lilly. As you can see in the pictures below, they really hit it off and it was hard getting them to separate. Braylon loves to give hugs and kisses!

Also, please don't be afraid to leave comments on the blog! We love to see that people are visiting. Enjoy the pics below.
