Jaxon 8 months

Another month has gone by and now Jaxon is 8 months old!! I just cannot believe how fast the time is going by. This boy is a character and he makes me laugh so much every day! He pulls the funniest faces. He loves to chew on his hands and he always has them in his mouth :) He gets really shy around everyone including me and does this hand thing where he thinks he is hiding but really he is very visible to the eye :) He also tips his head to the side when someone is looking at him. He sits up really good and is scooting around the house very slowly (almost crawling) I am okay as long as he stays moving slowly!! He is finally sleeping in his crib and not his swing and I no longer wrap him up like a "glow worm" in his blanket, instead he grabs his blanket and wraps himself up. He loves his binky (my first binky baby out of four) and it is actually kinda nice because he sleeps good with it! Jaxon weighs 19 pounds and is still very short. He is so snugly and lovable. He is still very loved in our home and always will be by many girls :)

Look what Jaxon can do!!!

He can get up on his hands and knees and rock back and forth!!! I love watching them learn how to do this trick. He can scoot anywhere he wants but he cannot officially crawl yet and I am okay with that :)

He loves doing this fun little trick with his body!!!

He can make really good fish lips and I was lucky enough to catch this one with the camera!!

He has two little white teeth on the bottom and I have been dying to get a picture and I finally did :)

Jaxon is such a happy baby I love him very much!!!

Swimming Lessons

We have started swimming lessons and we have another week to go!!! The girls love swimming lessons and they look forward to it every summer. They are all doing so well I am amazed at what they have learned in just a week. There are only a few kids in each class and two teachers per class so they get a lot of one on one and they learn so much. It has been a fun week of playing at the park and then swimming :)

Bear Lake

We always have so much fun at Bear Lake, but this year was just absolutely wonderful!! The weather was perfect, no wind, it was perfect temperature, it was just beautiful. I could not have asked for better. The kids had a blast!! I took my niece Jani with us and the girls played so hard with each other. My cousin Monika came over from Woodruff to see us and play for a day, the kids just love her. Jaxon got to discover the sand and water for the first time and he loved it. He loved feeling the sand on his toes and through his tiny fingers I loved watching him. We had an amazing weekend!! I feel so lucky to be able to go and do so many fun things with my little family. I hope someday my kids will look back and remember all the fun things we did together and how much it strengthened our family. If they don't remember I will have plenty of pictures for them to look at because I capture all the memories in pictures :) I love this sweet family of mine and I am so thankful to be on this journey of life with each one of them.
