Lazy Day


What a lazy Saturday. Joe had to work at noon and he still isn't home yet. He should be home in a couple hours. I just put in a Baby Einstein movie for Jaxson. Definitely not one that I can sit and watch all the way through. I do however, like the Disney channel. He loves his Mickey Mouse, Handy Manny, and Phineas & Ferb. My little man is getting so big! He really does change every day.

He is doing pretty well with cereal. At first I thought maybe it was bothering him. But, we were trying it like three times a day. We only do it once a day now. His face seemed to break out a lot. I think he might have had a little cold too though. He woke up with a stuffy nose a couple mornings and had a little cough. Most of the time, I think he coughs just to get someones attention. He definitely loves his momma. I love it when someone else is holding him and when he sees me, he just stares at me and smiles really big. It's a pretty awesome feeling!! Things are going good. I can't wait until Christmas!

Last night was the employee holiday party at the hotel. Jaxson got to see Santa for the first time. He didn't cry at all, but he did pull on Santa's beard. HA!! It was really cute!

Too big for his britches

Well, Jaxson is 4 months old today. Holy cow! His check up went well. He weighs in at 17.3 lbs. He's definitely a little chunk! He's so stinking cute though. We got to start solid foods! Yay!! He started eating cereal yesterday. He's getting the hang of it. He did good after his shots too!

We are sitting here right now and he is playing with his little Leap Frog puppy dog. It sings songs to him and says different things. There is a little light on it that lights up and he starts kicking and flailing his arms all over. It's so funny! He moves his arms a lot and he always hits himself in his belly. It's like he's drumming on his belly.

Speaking of the belly, we laid him on the floor the other day and he was scooting across the floor. I'm not even kidding, he was scooting. We are working on getting him to sit up better. He's doing pretty good.

He is really starting to recongnize "home." When we go somewhere else he knows that he is in a different place. He hasn't been to the babysitter in a couple weeks because the hotel has been slow and Joe has been home before I go to work. He has to go three times this week. Only for a few hours each day though. I think I'm going to go to her house tomorrow or Tuesday before I go to work to kind of get him used to her agian. Things are going great. He is growing growing and I still feel like he changes every day. I love seeing him smile and when he laughs, it cracks me up!! He's getting a little too big for his britches!
