My little Boo-berry

Hi All,

Tomorrow is our first annual Kids Halloween bash. We are expecting 50 kids!!! It's going to be so much fun. Can't wait to post pics. Jax is going to be Yoda and I am Princess Leia. Halloween will be a fun busy day as well. I've been Christmas shopping!!!! Figured I need to start early with all the kiddies we have to buy for. I'm so super excited for Jax's 9 month photo shoot & Christmas pictures on November 9th. Our amazing photographer, Gina Cristine Photography, who did his newborn session, will be visiting us for these pictures. She will also be doing his 1 year....which is right around the corner!

Sooooo much fun stuff going on in the daily life of Jax!

Until next time...
XOXO,

8 Months down & as happy as can be

Jax Robert Brown turned 8 months old! This is going by way too fast. I'm so glad that I'm picture crazy, that way I can actually remember what he looked like. He is such a peach, I love him to pieces. He has at least 7 teeth (only because he won't let me look in his mouth to see if there are more, ha), he is in his big boy car seat (rear facing of course), big boy bath seat, and we put the real bumpers back on his bed. On his 8 month birthday, he pulled himself up for the first time on one of his toys! He rolls, army crawls, and is starting to get on all 4's, so I know that will be happening in the next week or so. He's a really good little boy, even though he needs to be held 98% of the day, ha. I don't mind, they are only this little for a short period of time, and I will cuddle with him every chance I get. We went apple picking 2 weeks ago with Timmy, Justyna & Ashley, which was really nice. We are going to Boo at the Zoo this Saturday and Bengston's Pumpkin Patch on Sunday. Then on the 30th, we will be at our 1st Annual Kids Halloween Party!!! Oh, and he is just over 19 pounds.

XOXO,
Jax's Mommy

"My Little Boy"
No amount of gold could ever compare, to the gift of love that my son shares.
I've been blind and I couldn't see that all the love I've wanted is right here in front of me.
He gives reason to get through another day.
Maybe it's how he loves me in his special little way.
And when it gets hard for me to sleep at night....
He wraps his little arms around me and makes things right!
From sweet gentle touches to his bear hugs and a kiss...
He makes this hell on earth seem more like a peaceful bliss.
That great big smile and the twinkle in his eyes....
Every time I look at him it makes me want to cry.
But they're not tears of sorrow; they're tears of pride and joy....
To know that all the love in heaven is wrapped around my little boy.

This really says it all <3

What a little man

As I sit here, rocking my "baby" to sleep, I look at his little face and realize he is growing up. He has a little man face, not so much a baby anymore. It's all happening before my eyes and I want it to slow down.

Good night my handsome prince, mommy loves you always.

Who is the big boy?

7 months old! In 5 short months, we will be celebrating his first birthday!!! Soooo exciting. So since our last post, Jax sits up on his own perfect! He also has 3 teeth in and 2 about to break through. He is on Gerber 2nd foods, drinks juice in the sippy cup everyday, has breakfast, lunch & dinner and also gets a "cookie" almost every day. I weighed him yesterday, the 20th, and he weighed 18 pounds 14 ounces and was 28-1/2" long! He is wearing 6-9 month clothes and size 3 diaper. He is still very happy, even cutting the teeth and he loves Jack's Big Music Show! Everyday, there is something new with him and everyday, thinking I love him the most I ever can, I find a way to love him even more!

XOXO,
Jax's Mommy

6 months....(and 1 week)

Jax is a half of a year old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG, where has the time gone? He has 2 teeth, rolls over like a crazy man, almost sits by himself, has tried all the fruits & veggies. His doctor said that we can start him on 2nd foods and feed him 3 times a day. We will start all this in 8 days once the 1st foods we have are gone. He is still sleeping great, very happy in the morning & pretty crabby at night. When he wants to go to sleep, you can't stop him. He weighs 17 pounds 11 ounces and is 26-1/2" long putting him in the 50% for both. He is wearing his 6-9 month clothes and size 3 diapers. He is more fun every day! Until next time.........

XOXO,

Wow! Time flies....

So Jax is 5-1/2 months old...can you believe it?

On his 5 month birthday, he ate "solids" for the first time. He had carrots and loved them. Since then, he has also had green beans, sweet potatoes and just started sweet peas today. More exciting news is...............................
Jax has a tooth!!!! A 2nd tooth is cauing my lil guys some trouble but will hopefully be in any day now.

Last Saturday, July 17th, was Jax's Baptism. He was a crabby little man but the day really did end up going quite well.

My munchkin is just under 17 pounds and is going on another vacation to Wisconsin Dells this Monday. That should be a fun time!

Here are some key pictures from the last month!
