This sweet little boy is 18 months old today! Where has the time gone? I feel like ever since he turned one and we moved early this year...that it has just flown by. I just love this little dude so so much!
At the beach last week, Jaxon was in love with the water and sand...you could not keep him away. That kid has no fear! He would run right into the waves and just keep on going - we had to build our own little gate with people to keep him safe. He had a blast! I have so many fun photos of this little guy playing in the water, in the sand, playing with sea shells and so much more. He was a blast!
Right now, Jaxon loves to play with his brother and sister. He is quite aggressive and loves to tackle and run around with them. When he gets super excited, he wants to pinch and bite...working on that one with him. He loves his two soft blankets (Dwell from Target) and carries them around just about everywhere. On each blanket...he loves to hold the top two corners and put them up by his eyes, nose, and stuff them in his mouth whenever he can. And he knows when it's the bottom two corners of the blanket - they just won't do. So weird! He loves his binkie - love it! Especially with all those big molars coming in right now - he wants his binkie for comfort.
He takes one nap - usually from 12:30 to 2:30 or so. He takes a bottle before nap and bedtime in his crib and then I give him his blankies and binkies and he goes to sleep on his own...definetly our best sleeper ever! He's starting to get more independent and doesn't want to cuddle with me very much (he used to be my biggest cuddle-bug - I miss it!). He wants to run and play and be all boy!! :)
We just love this little guy and we are so glad that he is a part of our family...a very special part! We love you JackJack! :)

On another note, I want to say THANK YOU to all of you for your kind comments here and for your emails about my last post! You are all the best! Thank you for your kind words and for your support! I am so excited to start some new things here very soon - I'm just wrapping up some more details and then we'll get it all started here. I'm so excited! I hope that you will all enjoy it too! Thanks again!!
Tomorrow, Sunday, I will be posting my July layout that I had previously created for my 'A Year of You' class at Twopeasinabucket.com. It's one of my favorite layouts - I really love it. So come back tomorrow for that layout.

This week has been super tough - we had to get a new car this week as my hubby's car had about seen it's last day. As we were working out the details on the car, I took off with the kids cause they were being a little impatient (I would of been too!). So, we ran to a nearby scrapbook store and I still don't get how it happened...but the sharp corner of a heavy wood cabinet door fell right on my right big toe and smashed it...seriously...that's what it felt like. It hurt sooo bad! It cut my toe across the top and broke my bone - I have been struggling to walk ever since and now it is a very ugly black and blue. So not fun!
Then, we leave and as we are driving, Jaxon throws up everywhere in the car....and all the way home...and for the next 2 days. Daddy leaves for his work trip and mommy gets sick - it's just been a crappy week! Lots of sickies going on!
So, I'm feeling better today and hoping that we will all be better now...I just hate it when we are sick!
I haven't been able to respond to many emails so I'll get to those asap. I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend! Check back tomorrow for a fun layout! :)
Oh, I'm sorry you had a rough week! I hope the upcoming week is better for you! Hugs to you!

It's amazing how quickly time flies as your youngest ones grow up. I can't believe our youngest will turn two in just a couple weeks! I am so sorry to hear about your latest "adventures." It seems like when it rains, it pours! I hope you're all recovering quickly and life will settle down a bit now. Hang in there!

And I wish you well on your new adventures!!
