Jibber Jabber Jax

Bump Bump Video: This was my best attempt to capture Jax doing his rebellious bump. Somehow he figured out that I hate for him to bump his head! So when I tell him "NO!" he will purpose go and bump his head on something. In this clip, he was trying to pull down the shower nozzle. He doesn't do this much anymore, but there for a while it was: on the restaurant table, against my leg or knee, against a door or wall, and any other object close by when he was told no.


Spoon it Up: This was taken a few weeks ago of Jax eating with his spoon. He's become pretty good at it. But just as I got the camera, he switched hands. So this is his left handed approach at eating with a spoon.


Laugh Out Loud: This is just a random video that I took one night when he kept calling "Ma" and then laughing every time I turned around.


The next few videos are all ones that I captured this morning. Jax has been babbling for sometime now. Shame on me for not catching it before now. But last night, he said some really clear words. "Put on hat", "bear", "basket", "three" . . . it was a vocabulary explosion for him since he mostly babbles and points. Mama, Dada, Mimi, hey, bye have been around for a while, but he just doesn't say them all the time.

Peek-a-boo Plate:


John's niece (Alexa) turned 8 last month! She had a party at the skating rink on Sunday. Jax wanted to be right in the middle of things. He had fun looking at the reflection of lights hitting the floor. And when his Daddy finally took him around the rink so he could feel like the skaters, he had a blast! Yep, it's a pink stroller borrowed from John's sister.



By the way, anyone heard about this??? It's definitely OUT THERE!

Banana Bedhead....

Image
I'm sure that Paul Mitchell would be very interested in this new hairstyle that Jax modeled last night. I've known for quite some time that Jax is pretty smart. Now I think that it's obvious that he will also be very fashion savvy. After eating his entire bowl of Spaghetti-o ravioli, I cut up some bananas for him to eat. By the way, we've mastered this new way of eating...2 forks!! While he's feeding himself with one, I'm getting the other fork loaded up with the next bite. He would get a little stingy and refuse (okay, throw a fit) to hand back the fork. So problem solved = 2 forks!! Anyway, he gets pretty sticky when eating bananas because they obviously don't slide on the fork too well. So he uses his fingers. Naturally, the perfect place to wipe your hands when you don't have a shirt is in your hair. Plus fruit is good for you, so it must be good for your hair. Although he didn't exactly say it, I know that he was thinking of calling this very t...

Moses the Pumpkin

Image
For a school pumpkin parade project, Jax has to come up with a character from a book that he enjoys reading. Then we had to decorate the pumpkin like that character. I made a couple of suggestions (Pete the Cat, Captain Flynn and the Pirate Dinosaurs), which Jax immediately shot down. He picked a book from our bookcase about ghosts of Mississippi which I immediately shot  down. I told him that he must pick a book that he actually reads. About 30 minutes later, Jax walked into the kitchen announced his new selection: "I have picked The Bible, and I want my pumpkin to be Jesus." Well, how do you argue with that request?? However, I could not imagine how in the world we could accomplish such a thing. John and Jax took off to Walmart to look for some Jesus hair. Unfortunately, Walmart was all out of potential Jesus hair. So we asked Jax if there was another character from his Bible that he would like to use. He chose Moses. Thank goodness Jax has a creative and artistic daddy! Th...

A "Funner" Gunnar

Image
So with each passing week Gunnar is sweeter and more fun! I love this newborn stage soooo much. He is now cooing and smiling and responding to us and his brothers...we love it. It just melts my heart when he smiles! Jax says all the time "We love our sweet Dunnar, do we momma?" Ronin used to mock my baby talk with a lot of little jibber-jabber, but now he says "Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaby" every time he comes up to Gunnar. I am still breastfeeding. He sometimes gets a bottle of formula during the day if he needs it. But, I am pumping at work so he doesn't always need it. He is a really good baby! His 2-month checkup was Friday, and he was doing great! Weighs almost 11 lbs now. He went with me and Karen to my post-partum checkup and her 35 week checkup. Then we went for pedicures and ate lunch at O'Charley's. He was great, and I had a fun day with my sis! Here are some catch up pictures: (Get ready for picture overload) He was so upset (and hungry) t...
