Knight Jaxon

Jaxon thinks he's pretty cool (and handsome) in his new suit.

Birthdays

We had Jaxon and Crews birthday party Friday night. I can't believe Jaxon is three and Crew is one! Of course it was a truck theme. (I cannot take credit for the decoration ideas, I copied my friends sisters blog...shhh. But I will take credit for the cute birthday boys!) Jaxon and Crew LOVE their wagon. They have been sitting in it ever since, thanks Grandmas and Grandpas! Mike also surprised Jaxon and me with some fish. There are a TON of pictures but Meegan did such a great job on them i don't want to leave much out. Thanks again Meegan! Here they are kind of in backwards order.










so excited for his all his friends to be there

what a cute birthday boy

Allergies...Boo

Just had to post a few pictures of the boys after they had to get blood drawn for some allergy testing...so sad. We know for sure that Crew is allergic to peanut butter after he broke out all red and blotchy and in hives after one bite so we thought we should get him tested to see if there are any others and how severe the peanut one is. Jaxon has also been breaking out in hives on his face after eating random things so we can't really tell what he may be allergic to. So we thought we would get him tested as well.

Girly Rock Band

Tonight while the boys left to watch the big fight the girls decided we'd have a little fun. Here's the embarrassing pictures.
Christine and Meegan, or should I say Judy Nails and Lars-they are so hardcoreLindsey (Big Judds)-Trying to fight off all the kids so she could play the drums. Drums were the instrument of choice for all the kids.
Oh ya, I tested out the vocals
Awwww, precious
I have no clue...

This is what we do when its -35 outside...

We stay in our sweats and stay insideWe read, or drool, all over our books
Climb on furnitureGet a little crazy jumping on our beds and are left with a fat lip and a chipped tooth

One of those days...

I really love being home with my boys but this week has just been a tiring week. I have to vent. Crew has been getting his front teeth which means he has not sleeping well at all. Jaxon colored with a pen all over our built in WHITE bench in our kitchen. A chunk has been taken out of my wall by some force of Jaxon. Every toy has been taken out and thrown around the living room. Finally I told Jaxon he could play a few more minutes and then it was time to go night night (it was 2 o'clock and i still had not showered, I needed a minute to myself) His reply in a very matter of fact way, "no mom, NOT going night night...NOT going night night." (he really emphasized the "not" just in case I didn't understand what he was saying) What?!!! You are not even three! Do you really want to start this?
Both my kids are in bed asleep now.
I win.

What we have been up to

I haven't posted in awhile so I thought it was time for an update, since I know you all were anxiously awaiting one :) Right after Christmas we headed down to Utah with my parents to hang out with cousins, aunts and uncles and my grandparents from New Mexico that we don't get to spend much time with. It was a lot of fun..but of course I didn't take pictures. Sine then Jaxon has been keeping himself busy with all his toys and has quite the imagination. I also took him to an open gym on Friday which he absolutely LOVED, I think we will be making that an every Friday activity. Its for two hours and the kids can run around, jump on trampolines, swing from the rings and on rope swings. There was also a huge pit full of big sponge/foam pieces that the could jump and play in. He was in heaven. I will post pictures next time we go. Crew is on the go and walking, he can wave and say hi and is such a happy camper. He is also getting his two top teeth in. So here are a few recent pics
