Aren't I lucky?

I'm so lucky to have these two cute boys!

Kaleb turns 3!

I absolutely cannot believe my baby boy is 3 years old already. He is such an awesome little boy. We are so lucky to have him. When Jax was first born, he wasn't too interested and didn't pay much attention but now that Jaxon is more alert and reacts Kaleb is in love and such an AMAZING big brother. He is constantly watching Jaxon especially if there is other kids around. A few weeks ago, he had his cousin over and we were all playing on the floor with Jaxon. She accidently kicked Jaxon in the face and Jaxon started to cry the saddest little cry ever. It absolutely broke Kaleb's heart. He started crying as well and had the biggest crocodile tears. He just kept asking if his brohter was going to be alright. He is so sweet. He is great at counting and wants to do it constantly. We get to five perfectly (and he always wants to count actual objects as he/s going) and then he tends to skip some numbers. He loves to sing his ABC's as well and it's probably the cutest thing ever. He is so practical for a 3 year old and you can seriously have a logical conversation with him:)

We weren't going to do a party but then of course I caved and decided to let him have one. It was kind of last minute so it was nothing fantastic. He of course wanted to do Batman themed as he's obsessed and wears his Batman costume on a daily basis. He had 18 kids over and loved every minute of it. We played a few games and let them run around outside. The night of his birthday Bryson took us all out for pizza and then to the Carnival where we spent pretty much the next 3 days! It was a blast and Kaleb loved it. We are so lucky to have him in our lives.

Poor Little Baby

My poor little guy got a cold that wouldn't go away so we took him into the Dr's last Monday. They said it was a sinus infection and they gave him Amoxicillin. On Sunday night he started getting a few little dots on his leg which I of course freaked out about. Brys said it was no big deal but graciously agreed to sleep on the floor next to the bed so Jax could sleep with me and I could observe him. Well as you can see in the pictures above, the rash got extremely worse quite rapidly. The picture on the right is Jax on Monday Morning then the picture on left is from just a few minutes ago. We took him to the doctor on Monday morning and our poor little Jax is allergic to Amoxicillin (or anything else with penicillin in it) and he is having an allergic reaction :(. He doesn't seem to be in any discomfort and it's already starting to go away on his legs. It just started on his tummy so I guess we've probably got atleast 3 days left of rash :(

Jaxons Blessing

We blessed little Jax on May 1st 2011. His daddy gave him a wonderful blessing and we had lots of family there to support Jax on his special day. We are so greatful to have so much family close by and active to stand in. We then had a luncheon following. We had so much food and it was all delicious! Enjoy a few pictures.

Happy Easter

This year Easter was jam packed as usual. We started out at the Eagle Mt. Easter Egg Hunt in which, like every other year, it was jam packed and Kaleb got like 1 egg. Kaleb didn't really love it so I don't think we'll go back. We then went straight to my moms as the Easter Bunny dropped off Kalebs Easter present a few days early and we having quite the hard time hiding a large swing set from him! We ate and had another Easter Egg hunt at my moms.

Easter Morning, as soon as Kaleb saw his swing set he was in Heaven! He wouldn't come inside the rest of the day. I had to take a shower so I made Kaleb come inside for a few minutes. Bryson was sleeping so I went and woke him up to tell him to watch Kaleb. When I got up I noticed Brys had fallen back a sleep. Sure enough, I look outside and Kaleb is out there COMPLETELY nakie with only shoes on. Good thing we have a fenced backyard I guess so none of neighbors had to see it!

We then headed up to my in-laws for church and dinner. Kaleb got more treats and had a blast playing with his Unlce Jordan (they fight like they are brothers- Jordan is 23 and Kaleb is 2. They are quite the pair) and cousins.

2 Months

Now that Jax is 3 month I figure it's time to post Jax at 2 months! He had his checkup and to no surprise he is still growing rapidly and healthy!

At two months- he was starting to get into more of a routine with sleeping. He would sleep about 5 or 6 hours without having to eat. He is really good in the sense that he wakes up, eats for around 10 minutes, then goes right back to bed for about 3 hours without a fuss.

Here are his stats and some cute pics of him at 2 months!

Height: 23.5 inches long=61st percentile

Weight: 13 pounds 14 ounces= 95th percentileHead Circ: 39.1 cm=22nd percentile. (who would have thought I'd have a kid with a small head- his cheeks make it look like his head is quite large!)

I had to get a naked one so you could see his chubby little belly!

We finally made it to the Aquarium!

I've wanted to take Kaleb to the aquarium forever but just never got around to it. The other day my friend posted on her blog a killer deal for an annual pass so of course I just had to buy it for Kaleb and I. Bryson was in school that week so he was done every day by 12ish so we decided to go when he could come as well. Kaleb wanted his cousin Zoe to go as well so we took one more! Kaleb loved it and was running from one thing to another! Jaxon pretty much slept the entire time which was quite nice.

After the aquarium, we headed back to our house for a sleepover. The kids were so tired but still managed to enjoy their popcorn and movie!

An obsession for matching

As many of you know- from the day we found out we were having another baby- I wanted it to be a boy. There were many reasons such as, Kaleb would have a brother, we already boy things, etc. However I would have to say that the biggest reason was so I could buy them matching clothes. Pathetic I know. I had previously bought Kaleb and Bryson matching things (ties and church shirts) but Bryson really seemed to hate it and would never wear them! I am now in Heaven dressing my two gorgeous little boys in matching clothes. Enjoy a few pictures :)

This picture is at the very end of the day which explains Kalebs dirty face and I promise Jaxon did have pants on at one point!

Jaxon at one month

I am a total slacker and still haven't bought a baby book to keep record Jaxons weight/height/cute thing he does so I figure I should atleast post it on here until I get one. Time is flying by so fast with Jaxon! He started out as a super easy baby who was pretty content. In the time since, it has changed slightly. He is pefectly content as long as I'm holding him or sleeping. He doesn't like to be put down much in his awake hours. He is not a real great sleeper. Kaleb was an amazing sleeper so I kind of just assumed Jaxon would be the same. Kaleb would wake up every 3 hrs eat for 8 minutes then go right to bed without a peep. Jaxon is a little more high maintenance. For the first month- he would wake up every 2-3 hours to eat (he eats a lot longer as he is a chunk) then it took like 20-25 minutes just to get him to go back to sleep. Since he was born- 4:30ish has just been his morning. He is awake pretty much from then on and it is definately his fussiest time. Just in the last week- it's gotten a little better where he will eat around 9:30 at night then sleep till around 2/2:30 t

hen is pretty good about going right to bed- but then come 5ish he is wide awake :( I've started just putting him in his own room then and turning on his mobile to keep him entertained so I can get a little more sleep!



This is Jaxon at exactly one month old-


Jaxon is definately a "grunter" He is constantly grunting. When we were at the grocery store the other day checking out, the lady in front of me turned around and was like "Mam, is your baby grunting?" I just chuckled and said yes. He is so darn cute and we just love having him. He has also, on rare occasions, started smiling at you. When he was about 2-3 weeks old I was at my sisters and he was facing my sister and mom and he smiled at both of them! You have to work hard but usually you can get a smile out of him.





At his 2 week appointment he was:


8pds & 22 inches long





He is growing so fast!

Kaleb needed a break!

When Jax was almost two weeks old- Kaleb was having quite the day and was feeling neglected so he invited his cousin Madi over. When we first made the plans- it had just snowed and we planned on making snowmen. However the snow melted quite quickly so they ended up just playing with the bikes outside and were just as happy! We're so happy to live so close to cousins for Kaleb to play with :)
