Brian looking OH So Happy, coloring eggs!


Saturday night we colored eggs. Logan had a ton of fun with it this year, he actually got it! Jaxon just sat in his chair and squeaked the whole time. The boys had matching outfits for church, and were sooo stinkin cute! And of course Brian looked handsome! The Easter bunny came this morning and hid some eggs for Logan to find and he found them all! He had so much fun!
On a more serious note, I am so thankful for Easter Sunday. It is such a great time to be reminded of our Savior's sacrifice for us. I have a testimony that Christ lives and that he was resurrected after he died on the cross. I know that he atoned for my sins and through him I can be saved and return to live with him again. I am so thankful for the Lord, my redeemer, Jesus Christ. Happy Easter!

Jaxon Crawls

Here he goes!!!

Jaxon is 6 months!

Jaxon turned 6 months on the 7th this month, and he literally started crawling that day! He's getting faster and faster every day and he's all over the place now! He almost has one tooth and he's started eating solids! He's a very happy boy as long as he's getting attention! He LOVES playing with Logan! Those two are best buds! We LOVE you Jaxon!

Zoo Fun

Last week my sister and niece Abby were here visiting from Virginia. We all went to the zoo and I bought an annual pass because I figured it would be nice to be able to go several times throughout the year. We had tons of fun and went to the zoo again on Saturday! Logan was afraid, NOT of the REAL animals, but the fake statues, hence the funny expression in the pictures! He Loved the elups (Elephants) and the orangutans and monkeys.

Car Seat Cover

I FINALLY got around to sewing up Jaxon's car seat cover. I made a pattern from the actual cover that's on the carseat, and I figured it out all on my own. I think it turned out pretty cute! It has velcro in the middle of it so you can just put it on without having to take the buckles off. It's really nice! Here it is!!! I also made on e for Logan a while ago, but never got around to taking a picture of that. It's similar!

I'm going to work!

Yesterday Logan was wearing just his underwear around the house. He was playing and got his toolbox and hammer and came up to me and said, "I goin to wook (work) mommy." I asked him, "Okay, don't you think you should put some clothes on first?" He says, " No just underwear." :) What more can I say???

Herpangina

Logan started running a fever yesterday of 102!!! Of course, paranoid me, I NEVER wait a full 24 hours and "watch" the fever before I rush him in to the doctor. He ate a bunch of pistachios the day before he started running a fever. He was also complaining of a tummy ache. I'm freaking out thinking it's salmonella because of the pistachio salmonella outbreak! So I almost take him to the ER but the on call nurse says to wait it out. I'm still freaking out because his fever kept getting higher and higher. We went to see the doctor this morning and he has a virus called Herpangina. I called Brian to tell him what he had, and Brian says, "How can he have that, he's a boy???" Ya, I explained to him that it wasn't a body part but a virus that produces little blisters in your throat and makes you have a high fever for a week or so. The good new is that he's going to be fine and he doesn't have Salmonella from the nuts. The bad news is that he will have a fever and sore throat for about a week. Although, I don't think it's such a bad thing..... he just lays on the couch and keeps asking to take a little nap! So maybe that's why kids get sick--to give mom a break from the hyperness!!! I really do feel bad for the little guy though!
