Jaxonisms..

thats what we call some of Jaxon great sayings. Here is one of the latest:

"whats happynum?" Translation- Whats happening?

And one of our favorites:

"You borked it!" Translation- You broke it

Catching Up

I've been on a bit of a blogging break, so I'm back to catch you all up on what we've been up to these past weeks. We left a few weeks ago to Oregon and Washington to visit Mike's parents and my parents. We first went to Oregon and we all ended up getting sick. Both boys had ear infections and fevers and I ended up with a sinus infection. Mike's parents were such troopers to put up with us all being sick! We still had a good time and managed to do a lot of fun things. We went to a little theme park called Enchanted Forest that the kids loved and Jaxon went fishing with Mike and his dad. And I was able to hit up the Nordstrom sale :) We then went to Washington to visit my parents. Our trip was cut short because my cute little Grandpa in Utah passed away and we flew out for the funeral. But we were able to enjoy some fun stuff in Seattlein the time we were there. We went boating...both the boys got on the tube, we went to another theme/water park, the beach and Mike and I were able to go downtown Seattle all day BY OURSELVES! I will stop rambling since probably no one is reading anymore and just post picures.

Jaxon was a little skeptical of this guy and didn't take his eyes off him.

But not too be trusted for too long...

I just love this picture




Mike and I were able to spend a much needed day away downtown Seattle. We had so much fun shopping, walking around and enjoying the surroundings. We found this little hole in the wall place at Pikes Market to eat lunch that was known for their Rueben sandwiches-which I love, and especially known for their meatloaf sandwich that Mike braved and loved.

Also check out these amazing flowers we brought home to my mom from Pikes. Pikes has the most Gorgeous bouquets of flowers and guess how much?? $5!!!! If I lived there I would have these on my table pretty much at all times.

I love this picture of Jaxon at the airport. He could not wait to go on the airplane..waiting in line was pure torture for him. After our two hour plane ride he turned and said to me.."How about again mom?" He couldnt get enough

I know this post is getting really long but I had to post this last picture of my grandpa. He died July 25, 2009 and was 96 years old. It is so crazy to think how one person can affect so many lives. He has 8 kids, 28 grandkids, 79 great-grandkids and 7 great, great grandkids and will be greatly missed.

Jaxon is in love...

The other day we are riding in the car and Jaxon says to me:

"Mom, do you love tractors?"

Me: "Yes I do...do you?" (I know yes is the only response he will take)

Jaxon: "Ya, I love tractors."

Other frequent questions asked by Jaxon:

"Mom, do you love airplanes? I love airplanes."
"Do you love trucks? I love trucks."

Jaxon has had an facination with things that move since as long as I can remember...trucks, tractors, trains, planes. He LOVES them. He just wants to make sure that we all have the same appreciation for them as he does!

Does it get any cuter than this?

I will argue it does not (I guess I AM biased though) Here are a few pictures we just had taken of the boys by our very talented friend Meegan. You can see her work at meeganlittlefield.blogspot.com

Vegas...

Went to Vegas last weekend with some good friends and had such a good time. After reviewing their recap of the weekend I don't even want to try and give you the run down of our trip. So...I stole a pic from their blog and if your interested in our adventures in Vegas, here is their blog...it really was a good time with lots of laughs some good food, and one freaky celeb sighting.

UPDATE:

Just had to share that the doctor Mike saw about his hand apparently is not familiar with x-rays...Got a call from the radiologist and his hand IS broken. I would say poor guy, but not much sympathy from me. Silly boys....don't punch walls!

If you were at our house this last week...

you would have witnessed the following:

1. ME GETTING IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN MIKES WORK CAR & THE OTHER PERSON NOT STOPPING

2. MIKE PUNCHING A BRICK WALL AND POSSIBLY BREAKING HIS HAND

3. ME STEPPING ON A RUSTY NAIL WHILE DOING YARD WORK

4. A DOCTORS VISIT FOR ME AND MIKE INCLUDING 2 TETNUS SHOTS AND 1 X-RAY (NO BROKEN HAND)

5. BIRD EGGS HATCHING IN A NEST INSIDE OUR GRILL

6. OUR YARD FINALLY FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the events that are picture worthy...

BBQ anyone??

The front yard

My flower pots I did

Our back yard- I know our yard may not seem like anything special but it sure beats hanging out in the dirt...yay for grass!

And finally my patio furniture I cashed in on for Mothers Days. I also got a little fire pit so we can make smores every night! :)
