Wilson Waterbabies

I am so glad that it is finally pool time. Just like their mommy, my boys love the pool. Jax, Mom, Dad and I were the first in the pool this year (5/23). This was Memorial Day weekend, and it was like mother nature was bipolar. One minute the sun would be out...the next minute it would be raining. We had John's family and my parents come over on Monday to cook out and swim. We were lucky the rain did not hit us until everyone was gone! This was Ronin's first day to get in the pool. He really liked it, but what doesn't he like....


This is what my boys are usually doing when I leave in the mornings. Eating and watching Seasame Street.
Bobbie (our babysitter) and Ro
Bathtime!
Ronin puts a letter in his mouth and refuses to take it out during bath time. It's so funny. He'll just crawl around the tub with his letter in his mouth.
This one didn't have to be cropped since his belly covers up the important areas. ha


Mommy always gets soaked during bath time!
Cheesing for the camera

And a serious one

Showing off his new skill - sign language for "I love you" - A couple of weeks ago he did this sign to me as he was going to sleep and said "wuv oo." Melted my heart....


After bath - soaking in some Scooby Doo. His new favorite show. We were at church and this man sat down behind us. Jax waved at him, and he leaned up and said "Hey buddy. Are you my buddy?" To which Jax responded, "no. stash." Which means mustache - the man had a mustache. He asked Jax what his name was, and Jax said, "uh, Reddie (freddie)." I said "no it is not Freddie!" Tell him your name. He repeated, "Reddie." I said, "Jax Ryon, tell him your name." And he hollered, "REDDIE." So every now and then, Jax will only answer to Freddie (from Scooby Doo). And he'll correct me if I call him Jax. This boy is a mess.

Other news - I finally got sick of my long hair and cut it off. Jimmy James was glad to see me since it has been so long since I've gotten anything done to my hair. The new cut is nothing special - just a lot shorter. I was just sick of my hair getting pulled out by Ro, and getting caught in everything. I also had become obsessed with split ends. I was spending way too much time looking for them. So here is the before....
And the lovely self-portrait afters....

I'm feeling your pain on the Freddie thing! Kaden willonly answer to "Bubba". Everytime I call him Kaden he jabs his thumb in his chest and says, "No, I'm Bubba!" I'm so afraid his obit willone day read..."Kaden "Bubba" Pillstrom, age 90...." Seriously!

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...

Banana Bedhead....

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...

Jax's 3 1/2 year old birthday party

Image
Yes, we love half birthdays! When you have a birthday too close to Christmas, it is so fun to celebrate a half birthday in the summer. Besides that, Lisa died the day before his birthday. Not an easy time for our family. My mom did this with me too...since I was a December baby..I sometimes had half birthday celebrations instead. Jax was very specific about his requests...he wanted a Rocky party...with Rocky and the Russian fighting on top of the cake. However, there was not enough room for both. Megan Lucius made the cake! I made the cookies...Lightning Bolt cookies..."When you eat lightning..." We had a poster printed up for a game...prizes were awarded based on which person caused the water balloon to break. It started storming in the middle of the party...all the kids came in for ice cream and cake. They watched Toy Story 2.(June 13, 2010)
