Christmas!

I have no clue where the last 2 months have gone. They have flown by and Jaxon is growing like crazy. I have Christmas cards that will (hopefully) get mailed out soon. Today or tomorrow, perhaps? Either way, they're coming, I promise!

We are expanding Jax's food horizons and he is happy eating anything that comes at him on a spoon (with the exception of carrots, those make him gag). We go through cereal puffs like nobodys business.

I discovered yesterday that tooth #5 mysteriously popped up sometime between Sunday and Monday and he is working on tooth #6! 5 and 6 are both on the left side of his mouth and so once they've come in, his smile will be a little lopsided, but most likely adorable.

This year's service project at school was to make blankets for Project Linus and donate them to the pediatric and NICU units at Innovis (Josh, Jax and I will be delivering them tomorrow). Project Linus donates blankets to children through various places to provide warmth and comfort in tough times. We received one of these blankets while Jax was in the NICU and it seemed like the perfect organization to donate to through the preschool. I went into the whole thing hoping we would come out of the 2 days of blanket making with moms, grandmas, and aunts with at least 4 blankets. I am SOOOOO unbelievably proud to tell you that we will be delivering nearly 20 blankets to the pediatric and NICU units tomorrow!

Last night was the holiday program at school and Jax sat on the lap of a very special Santa. Recognize those eyes?

I can't believe 2009 is nearly over, it has been a busy and eventful year. Regardless of how the next couple days go, I gotta say, that Jax is the best Christmas present ever!
Happy Holidays, all! And keep an eye out for those Christmas cards! :)
