Wild Man!

Jax's Uncle Jason and Aunt Nicole and his cousins Jason and Kaylee gave Jax this 4 wheeler for Christmas. Well Jax loves it!! He is still trying to figure out how to push the button to make go but he will soon have it going on his own. He does however pull it, push it, and drag it all the apartment. He also "fixes" it.  He is growing so fast. It makes me so sad. John keeps telling me to enjoy each phase and I am trying so hard to, it is just hard when I miss holding my tiny baby.   

                                                                   He told me, "I fix it"  

Yesterday was HOT! So I  let Jax play with water on the balcony. I got a big bowl of water, a cup and a paint brush. He had so much fun. We also got out the chalk. By the time he was done he was naked, just his diaper. He was so dirty and soaked, but he had fun!

  

Bubbles, bubbles everywhere...

Jax and I played with bubbles today. I don't know why I haven't done this more. He loved it. This is only like the 3rd time we have played with bubbles and the first time in almost a year. I just haven't thought about it. Now I am ready to go buy all this bubble stuff. Definitely something that blows the bubbles for you. I was so light headed. I love doing things with him. He is so much fun!   

Well Easter at the Garrett house was nice and quite. John got up with Jax and I slept in. Then John made pancakes for Jax and I. Jax opened his Easter Basket. The Easter Bunny put a DVD, sidewalk  chalk, a few small balls and bubbles in his basket. Then we played with with his new sidewalk chalk on the balcony. Then we just hung out at home. It was perfect!

The Science Center

This was the last activity I have to post, about Sara's visit. On Monday we took Jax to the Science Center. This was the second time Jax has been there. The first time was about 4 months ago but he was to little to enjoy it. He had so much fun this time! He played at the water table, he dug for fossils, he played with the giant light bright, he played with trains and cars, he was so busy the whole time. It was great. I can't wait to take him with John.

                                             I think the water table was his favorite part! 

Easter Eggs

On Sara's last night here we colored Easter Eggs. We kept saying they were for Jax but once Jax went to bed and we were still coloring eggs we had admit it was really for us. We did some camo eggs to show we were thinking about Mike. We also did some foil eggs. It was so much fun!

                                          Jax colored this egg with the wax crayon all by him self. 

Sara and I took Jax to the Zoo on Saturday. We had so much fun. We saw tons of animals. Jax still I think was a little young to really enjoy and recognize the animals. He loved the petting zoo. He loved being able to pet them and touch them. There were also these fountains and a "bubble pool" but it was a little chilly outside and Jax was getting over a cold so he couldn't play in it. He would have loved it! We also fed the giraffes. Jax had a huge tantrum the whole time we were waiting in line and the first part of the time we were getting ready to fed them. He scared them a away. The zoo keeper had to get them to come back. It was neat to fed them. Their tongue's were HUGE and slimy. Jax's face was price less when saw them eating from my hand. Over all it was a great outing.  

Dinner at the park

We went to the park and grilled out last night. Jax LOVES the park! This was the first time Uncle Tony and Aunt Sara came to this particular park with him.  He had so much fun running around, climbing and playing on the swings.

It's a bird...it's a plane...

It's Super Jax!!! Aunt Sara bought him the cutest PJ's. We love them and he looks so cute in them!  

We are having a great time with Sara. We wish Mike could have come too but we are really enjoying our time with her. He has had a cold and has been a little fussy but over all he is loving all the attention from Sara. We went to the mall yesterday and walked around. Then that afternoon Jerilyn came up and hung out and spent the night. We stayed up till 2 am talking. It is so great having friend here to talk to. Tonight we went on a picnic at the park. Tony and Mike came with us and we grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and Jax played with Sara and Tony on the playground. I love how many people love him!  He is a special boy. 

Tomorrow the zoo...
