Jaxon Loves Santa!

Jaxon loves Santa.

Everywhere we go "SANTA!"

He even watches a Baby Einstein movie with Santa and he just loves the man in the red suit.

Ho Ho Ho

See how excited the boys are to see SANTA!

Oh yeah -- pet night.  Even the little doggies love Santa.

BUT DON'T MAKE JAXON SIT ON SANTA'S LAP!

Jimmy does not see what the big deal is.

He just wants to chew on his sleeve.

Big Brother only wants to escape!

Then End Result:

I paid good money for these pictures. 

(I scaned it in crooked on accident)

You have to tell them what you want to buy BEFORE you see how the kids will do.  And, even though they took 4 shots, they didn't ask which one I wanted printed.  Oh well...

Memories.

Favorite Photo on Friday

We were home at AR for my sister's wedding shower (AND I FORGOT TO BRING MY CAMERA!).  Nick and Sara with the boys!

I hope I can borrow some pictures from somebody and get those posted. (hint, nudge) The shower was very fun and successful.  I have never been "in charge" of one before but it turned out fabulous.

Christmas Playgroup

We are finally getting to know some more families in our neighborhood thanks to starting a play group.  We have a wonderful group of moms and babies that get together every other week.  I really love it.
We had a holiday potluck and craft time on Tuesday.  Jaxon loves playing with the kids but Dylan is his closest buddy.  Dylan is just 1 month older.

There are lots of little babies for Jimmy to play with.  This is his friend Landon.  Landon is about 2 months older.  CUTIES!!!

giant baby likes your hat

ok, let's talk this out.

pretty funny

oh, another friend arrived!

Craft time!

Jimmy's asleep (he had to make his at home later)

1 red hand

1 red hand print and a "gro" hand

Mommy is proud of this ornament!

I am just so happy to have crafts the boys make.  I have to work hard at making crafts with Jaxon and I need to do better at it. This will be a special ornament for years and years!

Oh Holy Razorback????

Look at my sweet and lovely Nativity Scene.

Notice anything???

it got a new addition this year!

A RAZORBACK???

Yes, in John 100:7 it mentions that Jesus' first words were "WOOO PIG SOOOIE". ha ha

Wonder how it got there???

If you don't have a Fontanini set and you have children, I highly recommend them! It's Jaxon proof! I wonder how many sheep & camels (which Jaxon thinks are neigh-neighs) I'll lose this year.

I love Christmas time!

Jimmy is 6 months old!

Boy oh boy!
2 brothers...
Getting to be fun and will only get better!

So, now that Jimmy's 6 months old he is starting solid foods. He had his first tasty morsel on Thanksgiving and hasn't slowed down. I'm giving him 2 jars of baby food twice a day. Veggies for now...fruits later....cereal at 8 or 9 months. I want to start making my own baby food, with the help of my friend, Kyra, I hope to get there "some day"!

Stats
Measuring: 29 inches tall! 99%
Weighing: 20 lbs 5 oz 90%
Head circumpherence: 18.5 inches 99%

We'll check again at 9 months.

No shots...
we are traveling to AR tomorrow so they said we can come back after we get back. No need for fussy children in a car ride. Gosh, I love my doctor.

Peas? for real?

He sort of gagged at first but then he ate the whole thing.

HAPPY KID!

Hey, don't forget about the baby over here.

Playgroup with Elyse and Brooke.

This cracks me up that Jimmy is making the same sounds as Jaxon. Bu, bu, bu, bu, bu

But, Jimmy moves his whole jaw and his mouth is a funny shape. It just cracks us up!

to-ma-to and other tricks

Jaxon has loved grape/cherry tomatoes since we grew them in the yard this summer. Now, he likes tomatoes and avocadoes and that's it for veggies.

He also shared a few more tricks on this video and for the grande finale...

throw the tomato.

Mama turn off camera.

Fluffy white flakes!

Wow, what a wonderful surprise this morning!

Look at the beautiful snow!

and the adorable baby!

I need to get some pictures of Jaxon enjoying the snow.

He had his FIRST sleepover last night. He went with Will's parents to his brother's house to spend the night. We missed him like crazy and I can't wait for him to come home and tell me all about the snow. I heard he's been calling it his favorite word "Grooooo".......everything is "gross". I'll try to teach him to call it ice, he can say that but can't say "snow".

Happy snow day!
