A very important message!!!!

Jaxson has something very important to say to daddy. 
 He tried to read it to daddy but there were some big words. 

So he decided to just clap for him instead. 

Yay daddy!  Happy Birthday.

a girl + a wedding dress = happiness

I was watching “say yes to the dress” on TLC last night.  Never seen this show before and for some reason I decided to check it out.  It is show about girls who go out and find their perfect wedding dress.  They try on all these dressed until they find “the one”.  Watching this show [...]

GO PACK GO!

We decided to bust out the cheese head again this year.
Jaxson wore it for about 2.4 seconds before the chin strap annoyed the crap out of him. 

We put it on him again but without the chin strap this time and showed him how cute he was in front of a mirror.  He was much happier [...]

Week one of being a toddler

Jaxson did amazing.  He actually slept on the cot for anywhere between 1.5 and 2 hours each day.  YAY.  And he did not fall off which is a miracle in and of itself.  He sat at the table for all meals and he came home pretty dirty each day which means that he was having [...]

Family Photo

Yesterday Jeremy was wrestling with Jaxson on our bed.  In between all the wrestling, Jaxson was showing off his somersaults and face diving skills. 

and then we decided to pose for a family picture
Awww–aren’t we so cute???

and I decided I wanted another one but Jaxson has other plans (I love how oblivious I am to what is [...]

Toddler room

Jaxson is getting transitioned into the toddler room at daycare this week.  I am very excited for this to happen because I think he needs more structured activities during the day.  The toddlers are always doing fun projects and so I think this is going to be better than just letting him play all day.
The scary part of [...]

Update on Swimming

So swimming was fun and Jaxson had fun but Jaxson definitely has a problem with letting go of toys.  The kids were given watering cans in the beginning of class to play with and when it was time to give them back and move on to another activity, he was not ready to give it [...]

Swimming

While the pool in our community might be closed for the year, that will not stop us from taking Jaxson swimming.  Tonight it is the first night of Jaxson’s swim lessons.  We took swim lessons last year  and Jaxson was still kindof young to really do anything but it helped get him get used to a [...]

Dentist visit

The dentist actually went pretty well.  It was only about a 15 minute appointment and Jaxson only cried for about 2 minutes when the dentist was brushing his teeth and the rest of the time he was nicely sitting in the chair with me, giving the dentist high fives.  The appointment was basically to show [...]

Dentist

Today I am taking Jaxson to the dentist for the first time.  This is going to be quite an experience.  Having an echocardiogram done is gonna seem like cake compared to the dentist.  There is absolutely no way Jaxson is going to let the dentist look in his mouth let alone clean his 4 little teeth.  [...]
