4 months


Jaxen is officially 4 months old today.  And even though he has his well baby checkup tomorrow morning, I wanted to do an update just on him.  There are so many things that he can do nowadays.


Jaxen is getting so close to being able to roll from his back to his belly.  He gets about 95% of the way and then he gets stuck by an arm for a toy.  It's quite amusing watching him try.  I'm sure he will get it any day now.  He can easily roll from his belly to his back.


Jaxen is also getting very vocal.  He seems to be able to carry on his side of a conversation - if you speak fluent Baby.  Giggling is not a problem, he finds his brother and sister absolutely hilarious sometimes.  Jaxen can also grab ahold of his toys if they are in reach. . . and just like Jacob everything he grabs goes straight to his mouth!!  Toys, hair, hand, blankets, burp rags, doesn't matter!


This afternoon, we fed Jaxen infant cereal for the first time.  He absolutely loved it!!  He would grin and kick his legs like crazy asking for more.  He was by far the easiest baby I've ever fed.  He wanted every ounce in his mouth, he kept it off his face for the most part.  I thought that maybe because he was born early, he'd have a hard time figuring out the whole swallowing thing - after all it took him a while to figure out the suck and swallow.  But we had no issues, he seemed to love it.  I think I'm going to slowing start introducing him to some baby food veggies.


**Despite the date stamp on these pictures... they were all taken today 04/17/2011.  I have no idea why the camera is wrong but I will fix it.**
