Baby's 1st Christmas!

Brayden had so much fun on his first Christmas! We spent Christmas Eve at my Aunt Barbie's and Uncle Jerry's house. Things have changed in the past couple of years because now there are 6 little ones running around and it gets a little crazy...but so much fun! On Christmas morning, we woke up bright and early and got a visit from my Aunt Kathy. We made the trip up to Wadsworth and spent the rest of the weekend with Jeff's family. Not only did we get lots of presents for Christmas, we got a new member of the family. Pat, Jeff's brother, proposed to his girlfriend, Erin, after Christmas dinner! We are so excited for the wedding this year! All in all it was a great weekend and Brayden was spoiled rotten by everyone! :)

4 months!!!

Brayden is 4 months old today! He had a doctor's appointment which wasn't the greatest thing to do to celebrate the day since he had to get 2 shots. He was a champ as always and barely cried. He is 26 1/2 in long (90th percentile), 16 lbs 11.5 oz (80th percentile) and his head circumference is 17 1/2 in (90th percentile). He is sleeping about 10 hours a night which has been AMAZING!! He even slept 12 hours one night last week! Naps range from about 1-2 hours and he'll take 2-3 a day. He's drinking about 5 bottles a day which range from 6-8 ounces. We are going to be starting some cereal this week, so that should be an interesting experience! Brayden makes all kinds of sounds and "talks" to us all of the time. He smiles and will even give us a belly laugh every once in awhile when he's tickled. He seems to be the most ticklish up around his neck. Last week, he rolled over from his belly to his back for the first time and he's rolling from his back to his side. He just can't quite make it all the way over yet...might be that 90th percentile in weight thing that's holding him back :) He loves to lay on the floor or on his activity gym and hit and kick. He grabs at toys and is now at the point where he puts everything in his mouth. He is a drool monster! I'm sure that it won't be long before we see some teeth pop through! There are times that he looks just like his Daddy and there are other times that he looks just like me. I think that we've decided that he looks like Jeff when he has serious looks on his face, but he looks like me when he has confused looks on his face...haha! He is such an awesome kid and we are looking forward to his first Christmas!!!!!

All I Want For Christmas...

Brayden didn't ask for much this year...I'm sure that will change in years to come!
