Sledding and 9 month update

Santa brought Jax a sled and we decided today would be a pretty good day to take it for a test drive. Final verdict = smooth ride, but we're not so sure about if it's fun or sorta scary :) The picture below of Josh and Jax is from after sledding and after I'd plopped him in the snow and he decided he didn't like that at all. Good thing daddy was there to rescue him! Before we started the test drive, Crunch made sure Jax was securely strapped in and afterwards, he kissed and sniffed at him to make sure he was ok.

This is pretty much the same look he had on his face the whole time that Josh pulled him around the yard. Sometimes he would crack a smile, but for the most part he looked pretty unsure.

Daddy got his exercise pulling Jax in circles in the yard, making a snowy racetrack. Next time, Crunch gets to pull him! ;)

Last Tuesday was Jaxon's 9 month check up ~ he is 18 pounds, 7 ounces and 27.5 inches long. Now we don't go back until after his first birthday! I can't believe that he'll be a year old in a few months. I don't like how fast things go!

Tuesday, Jax decided was a good day to show me that he can pull himself to standing in his crib and peek out at me when I'm in the family room. The rest of the week, anytime he was in his crib he would try to pull himself up and check out the rest of the world. Daddy had to lower the mattress in his crib so we don't have to worry about him jumping ship!
