Pizza Shop...

 Last week we took Jax and Caroline (the little girl I take care of) to the pizza shop down the street. We had a blast. The kids were so good. As Jaxon gets older he is becoming more fun. He has the silliest personality, he is strong willed and stubborn yet so sweet and love to cuddle. He loves to make mommy and daddy laugh and he does it so well. He is our world he is just the most amazing little boy we feel so lucky that he is our son. 

On a side note Jax is talking a lot more. He is trying to repeat EVERYTHING. His new favorite phrase is "stinky or stinky poop."  When he poops he runs over to me and tells me, "stinky poop." He also says this when he passes gas. He is so funny and such a boy!! 

Just like my daddy...

We got a lawn mower and John ventured out on Monday to start it then finished it yesterday. He did such a great job! Jax was not so sure at first but yesterday John and I went out and bought him his own mower that blows bubbles he loves it! While John was mowing the lawn Jax was also mowing. He would not go near John, he is still not so sure, so he stayed close to me on the porch and "mowed" around there. 

                                        John found out our yard is bigger then we thought. 

                                                  It is hard work mowing the lawn. 

Our time with MiMi

So my mom was here over the weekend and it was so great to see her. We usually see each other about every 6-8 weeks however it had been 4 months. I was so excited for her to see Jax he is changing so much and so fast. He finally says MiMi well kinda he says "e e" but she loved it anyway. We went shopping as usual, we went to the science center and we went out to eat a few times. It was just so great to have her here. I was dying to show her our new house and of course she loved it.

                                               Caroline came with us to ride the carousel  
          Sorry it is blurry the tiger was going up and down. But this is Jax's first carousel ride.

                                                                  He loved it!! 

The new back yard.

Today was our first Saturday in the new house that we weren't moving. We had a great family morning. We were going to go to the pool but it was to cold. So Jax and I went to Wal-Mart and bought a hose. We hooked it up to the kiddie pool and it turns it into like sprinkler. Jax loved it. John got out there and threw the ball with him and stuck his head in the sprinkler with him. I felt like we have not been able to spend a lot of time with Jax with the move and getting settled so it was so nice to just focus on him and play it really was one of the best mornings ever!    

Jax started swim lesson on Monday. It is called Infant Swim Resource. They teach water survival and they teach the child what to do if they fall in the water. Jax is learning a swim float swim sequence. The first 3 lessons he cried the whole time but he still did everything he was to do. He just cried while doing it. However today he came out of his shell. He was playing, talking, and did so great. He floated all by himself for 10 seconds. He is really starting to learn and it has only been 4 lessons. I love seeing him learning new things. Caroline the little girl I take care of is also doing them. She is almost 7 months and she is so cute in the water.      

                                              Jax right before his first lesson. 

We moved and we are all settled in. We love it! It has been a lot of work but worth it. I don't know how we got so lucky to have this gorgeous house. Here are some pictures of the down stairs. I didn't really take of the 4 bedrooms upstairs yet. I will take pictures of Jax's room when he wakes up. 

                                             It is a little dark but this is the dinning room.
