Summertime has begun!

It's officially summertime and Jaxson has been a very busy boy despite the hot and humid weather. We've been very busy playing with Papa Beez, his little girlfriend Giana in the kiddie pool, and going to the lake house on the weekend. Jaxson had a very special visit from his Uncle Derek and got to meet him and spend some time together before he's goes off to Army boot camp and Officer Candidate School on the 13th. We will be thinking of you! xoxo
Jesse and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary on Wednesday the 30th by going out for a sushi dinner date while Papa and Jaxson hung out at home watching the Red Sox. Jaxson also got to wish his Great Grammy and Papa a happy 65th wedding anniversary on the 29th. 
Jaxson is so fun to watch grow and develop. He is quite the observer watching everything around him, talking up a storm, laughing and squealing, and moving about. He can roll onto his side but hasn't mastered a full roll to his belly just yet. He is now able to grab toys while laying in his bouncy seat and play mat, and grab objects around him. Jaxson is loosing his baby hair as his second crop of hair comes in and it's looking quite blondie. He is quite the drool machine, and enjoys putting his fingers, toys, and anything else in his mouth. Teeth may be on the way soon...yikes!
Jaxson loves his big boy crib and has adjusted well to the transition and continues to sleep through the night and be entertained by his mobile during the day. 
All this play does make him a tired little man. So sometimes we take naps together on our bed in the air conditioner to cool off and rest. 
Jaxson is off to the doctor for his 4 month wellness check-up on the 21st, so stay tuned for the big weigh in. I think the lil/big man is close to 18 lbs. Happy 4th of July everyone...be safe!

  1. Jaxson looks SO content and happy Shanni! Great job by you & Jesse! Can I borrow him, for just a bit, to feel his soft skin and smell his great smells; listen to him giggle and watch him smile; and love him before he gets too big and doesn't want to be loved anymore :( ?? I love him in his "smiley" outfit!!! He looks absolutely adorable!! The pictures of him w/the sign for gram & pops and the "sideview" of him sleeping are priceless and my favorites! ( even though I love them all! ) I just love him to pieces! <3 XOXOXO
