This and That

I've been meaning to update for at least a week, but Jax hasn't been feeling so amazing and so I just didn't get around to it. The following pictures are from the last week or 2. I was excited for posting Easter pictures, but as some of you know, on Easter morning Jax was throwing up and so no cute pictures from that day. :( He's still got a cough and a runny nose, but at least we're beyond the puking. Last week, we had his 1 year photos taken, but I haven't had the chance to upload those, so those will be posted tomorrow. I am SO excited to share those, they are SO cute.

Jax's favorite place to play these days, it seems like, is the foyer. We spent an afternoon at my grandparents visiting with aunts and uncles and he had spent the whole day going up and down their one step into (and out of ...and into) the living room and when we came home he'd race me up the steps. Now that he's gotten the hang of them, he can fly up both flights almost as fast as I can walk up them.

The Easter Bunny left him some ears at Grandma Joy and Grandpa Scott's house.... I think they're adorable, Josh says putting things like this on a baby is like dressing up a dog. (I dress up the dog on occasion too, just for a laugh). The Easter Bunny left swimming gear at uncle Dannie and aunt Sharon's, and I'll have to post that picture too. He got some goggles that are made for bigger kids, but I made him try them on anyways. It was a good thing he wasn't feeling so great that day or I might have had to wrestle them on.

What the heck is up there?!??!?

We have a mini Slinky that Jax loves to play with. Usually, he's got one end in his mouth and the other in his hand and looks kind of like an elephant.

I needed him to stay in one place for a minute and so I put him in a clothes hamper. He actually played in there for about a half hour with some monster trucks. No, I did not abandon him in the hamper, I sat on the floor and we played peek a boo through the holes.

My cousin has twins that Jax got to meet for the first time a couple weeks ago when we all got together to see my aunt, uncle, and cousins that live in California. These 2 were great entertainment for Jaxon! :)
