16 month update

Jaxx is a hurricane! Everything must be touched, explored and tasted. he climbs on everything and has mastered getting off our bed, jumping on the couch and getting in the kitchen drawers. his favorite toy is a ball. he always walks around with one of daddy's hats on and drags his blanky everywhere. he tries to put his shoes on, and knows how to take off his shirts, he just cant get them over his head. lol. he loves his baths and we cant shower with out him. he yells back at us now, cant understand what he's saying most the time, but he yells with attitude. he has so many facial expressions that make us laugh so hard even when we're trying to yell/punish him for something. just cant stay mad at him. he loves water, hoses and pools. he loves being outside! he grabs our hands and pulls us to the front door pointing at it saying 'out'. he now says hi, mommy, daddy, out, yeah, no, peas (please), tank ew (thank you) and can sign please. he will let you know what he wants by pointing and jabbering. when he's tired and ready for bed he gets his blanket and Binky and comes to us to snuggle. he sleeps all night, and still takes two naps. when he's really tired, he gets very dramatic to the point of melting down if you move one of his things, even if he wasn't paying any attention to it, its funny to us though. he will sit and watch the show two and a half men like its the most entertaining cartoon ever. he loves kids and cats. only some dogs. he's a huge flirt, and loves to hang with the boys. he always steals the cell phones and calls random people. he takes the remotes apart and tries to put them back together. he also has figured out how to turn the TV on and off, and change the channels, which drives us nuts! he hates his stroller now that he can walk. he tries to run but his mind is way faster than his little feet. 2 months ago he was 21 pounds and 31 inches long. hes growing like crazy out of his clothes. hes so much fun to have around. The pictures above are his most recent, he painted for the first time, and decided he should be blue and so should the cat. his artwork is adorable and hanging on the fridge

Adventures of Jaxxon

Jaxxon is now 14.5 months lol. He is a blast. He says 'hi, mommy, daddy, thank you, and please'.

He's getting picky with his food, which gets frustrating at times. He loves to play outside and run everywhere. He has figured out how to take off his diaper, so he is ALWAYS clothed now. I made his Easter basket today. Lots of hot wheels and a toy gun. Yes, I got my one year old a gun. It's a little noisy thing. We have one from a garage sale that's broken and he always tried to get us to make it work. He loves his gun, cars and tools. He has a built in radar for cell phone and remotes. Every once in a while people get his phone calls. ha ha. He LOVES to climb all over the couch and figured out how to get up there. He likes to be chased but that has resulted in some injuries. He was running from me, tripped and hit his forehead on the frame of our couch and had a huge goose egg. It was funny to me, he didn't think so. Two weeks ago he got to meet grandpa Jim for the first time. They hit it off well. Well, I'm off to retrieve my phone now.

Jaxx is ONE

It's been a while since I have blogged anything about the little man. He turned one a week ago! He's saying mommy daddy and hi. He takes a few steps here and there and keeps on trying. His best buddy is our kitty Emilio. He knows what no means and hides his hands if he knows he's pushing buttons. He loves baby einstein movies and his wagon. He's a giggly and bouncy little dude. He is afraid of the dark, and we need to break the bottle in bed habit. He takes his sippy cups but you can tell he would prefer his baba. He is a binky baby, and i know we'll be pulling our hair out when we take that away. His favorite foods are bananas, grapefruit, ritz and gold fish crakers, cheese and ice cream and jello and marshmallows. He pretty much loves all food. Can't eat with out sharing with jaxxon. He explores everything all day long. He finally quit eating the cats food. and Loves his bath time! Hates bed/nap times. He has his front bottom and top teeth. Loves clapping and copying people. He gets so proud of himself when he figures out how to do something new. Its so cute!
