Sneaky

Jax has recently discovered that, without the front gate on his bed, he can escape.  This means that if it's naptime and he's not quite ready for nap he will get out of bed and play or stand at the door and yell for me until he's tired and decides to lay down himself.  A couple of times I'd gone to get him up from nap and he wouldn't be in bed and then he'd pop out of the closet.  I'm pretty sure on those days he slept IN the closet.  On one particularly rough and screamy day I went to check on him when he got quiet and found him sleeping on the futon with the laundry I'd done that day. 

Christmas 2011

Now that January is nearly over, I figure I should update for Christmas.. ;)  We had a great holiday ~ spent some time in Lisbon and then Enderlin and then came home and did Christmas, just the 3 of us. 

Trains (especially Chuggingtons) are big at our house the last couple months.  We came home with a GIANT influx in our collection.  If it wasn't Chuggers, it was Cars ~ which is exactly how Jaxon liked it.  (Even as I'm typing this, Jax is watching Cars 2 on tv and dancing around in his Cars tent....occasionally jumping up and down to see if the tent will fly off his head..)Helping Papa Jim read his new book!

 Helping Grandma Linda open her presents

 Papa helping Jaxon put all his Chuggers in his new carrier (which, by the end of Christmas, we'd outgrown!)

 Jax got this chair from my brother ~ as you can tell, it's very comfortable. 

 All he needs is a footrest for it!  We had to use the shoebox from his new Jordan's for now.
