Brandon went to the doctor yesterday for his 4-month appointment. He is 17 pounds 2 ounces, 26 inches long, with a head circumference of 44cm!!!! He has definitely jumped growth curves, now in the 90th percentile. He is a big healthy boy. Lucky for me, Kevin was with us for his second round of vaccinations and got to hold his arms this time. Poor little guy.
Brandon has also started to hold his own bottle this past week. Sometimes he even takes the bottle out of his mouth and puts it back in! He has also discovered his toes when he is sitting up (with assistance) but he can't quite get them into his mouth....though he tries. Darn that big round tummy.
I think he will be crawling (or at least scooting) before we know it. This morning he managed to crawl across his play gym mat (to get a toy I kept moving out of his reach). I was surprised since usually he gets frustrated but today he got his knees and arms to work in unison and moved forward!!! I think it's time to baby proof the house.

I don't even think Ashton is 17 pounds yet!
