My little Man

This is going to be a lengthy blog, prepare yourself. or don't read it, either way. :)

Jax has been growing SO MUCH lately.
*He now has 8 teeth!
*He's walking around ALL OVER. I had to run and get "Baby proofing" stuff for our cupboards, among other things. This kid gets into EVERYTHING. Jax ate one of those jet pack dishwasher packets and got it in his eye, i had to call poison control. I thought i was going to be known forever as the mom who blinded her child out of stupidity. But he's fine, thankfully.
ps. I had to run water into his eyes for 10 min, 10 minutes! do you know how LONG 10 minutes is?? NOT fun. I felt really bad.


*His fascination is toilets. If anyone has any idea of a contraption that keeps toilet seats/lids down--
that actually works, then i would LOVE to hear it.
*He will "Dance" to music if he hears it. Dancing entails swaying his body from side to side. Sometimes he will even "sing" too, this entails a lot of long vowels.
*Jaxton's head is CONSTANTLY being bonked, banged, or hit. (not by me.:) This kid has had at least one bruise on his head consistently since he's started walking. His head gets a bonk probably about 20 times a day. No joke. In his defense, the kid has a BIG head.
*He has really started being SUPER dramatic. Just wailing at the top of his lungs--high, like a little girl. But the thing is, it's usually FAKE! and you know how i know? Cause it's over such STUPID things, and because if he gets the least bit distracted from the high pitch wailing he immediately stops. Until he remembers or see's me, then he starts back up like he never stopped! Until i pick him up or do whatever it is he's wanting...can you believe that? And sometimes he will scrunch his face and make this SUPER pouty look, trying so hard to work up a scream--it's hilarious. He usually
can work up a scream--which isn't quite as hilarious. :)


*Whenever he gets slightly excited (he's been doing this for awhile now) he breath really heavily and in short repetition. That's really cute, we do it at him now when he starts to do it and it doubles his excitement--who knows what he's excited for. :)
*Overall, he's a pretty jolly baby, kinda a ham really. And it's fairly easy to get him excited. He loves to be tickled, spun, bitten and shaken (in a "i'm playing with a baby" kind of way), thrown, chased, and handled kinda roughly. :) He also likes to be sung to and to destroy.
*From the looks of him, you'd think he liked to eat--not so much. i mean cake he always makes room for, but i'm constantly floored that he can maintain such a heavy weight. He's pretty darn solid.

Here are some
really cute videos of Jax doing Jaxton things. Love it.

    It sounds like your little man is growing up! I love the pics, you really are such a great mama! I think boys bonk their heads more than girls, so don't worry, from what I hear that is totally normal!
    Miss you and love you lots!
