Jax in a box!!

(haha...get it? Not a Jack in the box!)

Gamer baby

The last time Jackson was over, Christopher let him play with the wii U game pad for a minute, thinking that he would just look at the screen and be occupied for a minute.

Little did he know that Jax would somehow set up a mii profile and start playing a game. I'm almost certain that this was a coincidence, but somewhere in the back of my mind, I was wondering if this kid actually knew what he was doing? Certainly possible!

The other day he got his hands on my phone and within 30 seconds, had opened google maps to a nearby town and was planning his escape!!

Six

Wow! What a difference six months makes! This was in late February of this year. Jackson was just 9.5 months old, and this was their first meeting.
These days, Osc has little to no interest in Jax, unless its meal time...and then he camps out under his seat. He's no dummy.
Jax at the time that this pic was taken wanted to pet Oscar and see what this dog was all about. These days, Oscar moves a little fast for him, and kinda freaks him out...at least for the first few hours that he is here, and then he pretty much ignores him.

Labor Day weekend recap

Pick Jax up.
Chase Jax around our house.

And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Blog about my Monx

Just a quick pic of the other little dude we snuggle with from time to time...we LOVE our Monx, aka Monkey, aka Jackson!!

Pitter Patter

 

We had Jax and/or Aron and Jason for 4 weekends in a row...this weekend is VERY quiet around here...we miss the pitter patter, or rather STOMPING of little feet around here!!!

 

With love, from Jax!

Jax and I made a little somethin' for his Momma for her birthday last week!
Obviously I stole the idea from pinterest, but it came out really cute!

I foot printed the little (big?!?) guy with black, shiny acrylic paint. I used both the left and right to make  "V" with them in the middle of a circular shaped plaque that I had already painted red.


*Just a tip...if you are trying to footprint a baby or in our case, 13-month old who would have NONE of it...have EVERYTHING ready!! Don't waste any time, have as many hands on deck as possible, and bring your object to the foot instead of the foot to the object if that makes sense?? Less pulling and tugging on their little limbs :)


Then I cleaned him up with wipes, put on his Buzz Lightyear Jammies and off to bed he went :)

The next day, I painted up some 2 inch letters that I got from Michael's, with the same black paint and glue gunned them on the sides of my "V," to spell LOVE.

 

In case there was any doubt, Gioia loved it! I can't wait until we have him next so that I can make one for our house!?! I wonder if I can involve the pups?

Baby Fever?

Oscar will not leave Jackson's toys alone...is he trying to tell me something?!?
