GAME DAY! Jaxson's first birthday!

On Saturday (the 10th) my little baby boy turned ONE!! I can't believe how fast the year has flown by. Jaxson has already grown in to such a sweet little guy!



He says so many words for his age and he understands many more than he can say...new this week have been spoon, down, and help, which adds to his list from my previous post! And ever since his birthday he says "Scout" although it is hard to understand as an outsider. Scout is a leapfrog toy that sings songs and learns your childs name and will even spell it for you. After his daycare buddy, Rory got the girl version, Violet, he fell in love! He lays on him and sings to it and it plays bedtime music for him to fall asleep to!



Here are some of his one year cake pictures!!

Jaxson's First Haircut

Jaxson got his first haircut right before his birthday. It was really more like a trim. The hair in the front was getting in his eyes and it was starting to fan out over his ears. We wanted him looking prim and proper for his big day!


Grandma getting ready to start. He has Grandpa's cell phone case to keep him busy


Lost the cape and moved on to Mommy's camera case


Finished product...SO handsome!

1 Week until 1 !!!!

I can't believe that in one week my little boy will be ONE!! He has grown into such a sweet little boy and time has just gone by way to fast!!

I haven't posted about him for awhile so here are some of the things that we have been up to!


We bought this little bike trailer for Jaxson to ride in and he loves it! Momma needs the exercise and it is great to be able to bring Jaxson along! It is starting to get colder now so we'll have to put it up until next year soon!

Jaxson has been walking for almost 2 months now and he is everywhere!!



Carrying the dog bone around!


Giving it to the dog!

He also is learning to talk and he LOVES music!!!

Here are his actions to "Eenstsy Weentsy Spider" He tries to sing along with that. He also sings "E-I-E-I-O" on command of Old McDonald! Anytime there is music on TV he stops and stares! Wonder where he gets that from?
Here are some of the words that he can say and MOST are understandable! Dog, Kitty, Mom, Dad and daddy, Please (along with the sign for it), Nigh-Night, Go, Done, Ear, Juice, Drink, Lillie. He also knows where everyone else's nose is and his mouth and your ears. He can pick up his milk and put it on the table when asked, most of the time. He waves at the words "hi" and "bye" and best of all...He gives the sweetest kisses right on your cheek! Sometimes over and over and over again!!
I am so excited for his little birthday although it will be very bittersweet for momma! Stay tuned for pictures of that next week!
