Jaxson had his 4 month check up today and all went well. . . except for the nasty shots. Jaxson weighed in at 15 lbs and 4.5 oz and was 25 inches long. That puts him in the 50th percentile on everything. Once again the Dr. was very impressed on his strength and even asked Jaxson if he was sure that he wasn’t 7 months old. We got the go ahead to start cereal, so we’ll try that tonight if he’s up to it and let you know how that goes. I also learned today that babies don’t drool because they are teething, they drool because #1 they don’t know to swallow their saliva and #2 it means they need more carbohydrates. He got 3 shots again and he only cried when he got the stick, then he was back to smiling and playing with Daddy. But then we got home and he woke up from a very short nap and he was in some pain and desperately needing more sleep, so Brad and I took him for a little drive in the van. After 1 mile he was out, so we went and washed the van and got some supper and came back home.

Christmas At Home
After all of the celebrations out of town at our family’s, we came home and celebrated with just the 3 of us. Brad started a fire (in the fireplace), we made some hot apple cider, and we put Bubba in his baby Santa outfit, so we were ready to open some more presents.

Buckley Family Christmas
We had our Buckley family Christmas on Saturday at my mom’s house in Hubbard. Bless her heart for hosting dinner for almost 40 people in her home. We had so much food, especially Christmas goodies and it was all very good. After dinner we played games and of course drank some wine. As always it was a great time.
Meeting Great Grandma
Jaxson got to meet his Great Grandma Mossman and Great Aunt Wendy for the first time on Friday. We were so excited to see them as they were to see us. Here’s some pics of their first meeting
Rollin’ Rollin’ Rollin’
That’s right. . . Jaxson is rollin’ right along. He rolled over from his back to his tummy for the first time last Thursday. It was so funny watching him do it too because once he got to his tummy he had a very surprised look on his face like, "what just happened?!" Here’s some pics of the big event.

Waiting for Great Grandma!
As a lot of you know, my Grandma Mossman and Aunt Wendy are coming from New Mexico on Thursday to spend 3 weeks with us over Christmas and we are very excited! This will be the first time that they will get to see Jaxson. I have to work on Friday, but then we are going to hurry back to Hubbard as soon as I get off of work to see them. Then on Saturday we are having our Buckley family Christmas, which is always a lot of fun. It should be a very fun weekend and I will be sure to post a lot of pictures when we get back.
