I have been meaning to do this post since Bryton was 8 weeks...but three weeks later here is a little update on Bryton.
At two months...
Height: 23 inches
Weight: 8lbs. 14 oz.
He is in the 60% for his height and weight still trails in the 5%. We have some work to do with his weight but he continues to hold his own which is amazing considering how much he loses despite his medication. He has started to smile and make all kinds of noises (this is really such a fun age.) He is quite a happy baby he doesn't fuss much but still doesn't like to sleep. However we have graduated from sleeping while being held in a chair to lying in my bed right beside me, so we are doing better. Some nights we are even lucky enough to get a three hour stretch...gotta love that. (Especially since we are still working on the naps during the day, the reason for my delayed posts.) :) Juggling three kids has been a challenge at times and quite an adjustment but so much fun. Bryton is such a sweet baby and has brought so much joy into our home. Madison and Jackson are loving being the older siblings and love helping out when needed or not. A while ago Madison informed us that Bryton was so cute that maybe we should just keep him. Yes, Madison thankfully the little guy is here to stay!
This was my attempt to capture his smile on film but as is evident I didn't do so great. Just know he has the cutest smile ever.

I don't know how you stay so positive when you don't get sleep. I didn't handle that very well. He is such a cutie and it is so fun when they start reacting to life and smiling!
I can't even imagine going with that little of sleep - I would be a total monster! He looks adorable as ever though so I am sure it is all worth it!
You are remarkable:) Sorry you are losing sleep. Bryton sound a lot like my kids, just right for the height but always underweight.
Mike had reflux a lot so he didn't gain much weight until after 5 months.
It will get better!
Sara, he is just so cute! I can't believe how much he looks like Jackson! And 23"?!? He may set a record for our family! Go Bryton!
Sara-
Sounds like you are a champ, as always! Your kids are lucky to have you. He is so darn cute, keep up the great work! I have to laugh, we just took Miles in for his month visit and he weighs 12 pounds. He is a tank!
I can't believe he's that old already! It seems that you JUST had him! Time does fly...then again, I'm not the nursing mother that's not getting any sleep!!! Glad to see you're all doing well. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
You are such an awesome mom! Are you coming to Utah for Christmas? Will you be in Dallas the 26th? We might be in town that day.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
