Just some randomness

 COMPLETE RANDOMNESS

I have been really bad about posting photos and stories on this blog over the last several months so I am posting a bunch of photos from the last little while. I am going to be better about posting cause I will thank myself later!

 

 

Zoo Day

This year we decided to get season passes to the Hogle Zoo. Mostly Mom and Jax go together while she is off work but today Dad had the day off work so we decided to go together. As you can tell from the pictures we had a blast. Jax's favorite part was walking around on his own and looking at the seals under the water. He is getting so good at walking and ever since he has started that is all he wants to do. If you can't tell already, we are so proud of him.

Jax's first Easter

 

 

 

 

Happy Easter!

As you probably already know this was Jax's first Easter. He didn't really know what to think of it and had absolutely no idea what was going on. All he cared about is that family was together and we were having fun together. Mom had to be to work at 7am so we woke Jax up nice and early at about 5am so Shaileen could see him get his Easter Basket from the Easter Bunny. He did not want to wake up to begin with but quickly changed his mind and was his regular self which is as happy as can be.

 

Jax was really curious with the tobasco bottle so we let him play with it. Shaileen had the brilliant idea to see if he would like it. I said "no way it's way too hot." The funny thing is he loved the taste and didnt complain about the spiciness of it at all. Jax is one tough little dude!

 

Of course Aunt Tristen had to let Jax try some candy. :)

 

Jax had such a great time and was so tired from all of the fun we had. With how much fun we had on Easter we can't wait until Memorial Day and Independence Day now. 

Playing at home with Dad

Jax and I spend a ton of time at home alone together. We have as much fun as we can. You can tell how happy this little bugger is. I can't say it enough, I am the proudest Dad ever!

Jax's first time on a slide

On Monday afternoon Shaileen Jax and I went to a park by our house to spend some time outside. When we got there we realized that Jax had never been on a slide in the past. As you can tell from the pictures and video he loved it. The one thing he did not like was the crunchy grass. We laid him down on it and he freaked out because he did not like the feeling on his neck. As it continues to get warmer we look forward to continuing to go to parks and just being outside.

 

Jax learning how to pull him self up

Jax has been trying to learn how to pull him self up to a standing position. Is has been really fun seeing him progress and become the little man that he has become. As you can tell he absolutely loves the camera and is constantly smiling.

6 Month Check-up

It was time for Jax's 6 month check-up this past Monday. We had been looking forward to going because we wanted to see how much bigger Jax had gotten. The doctor was so impressed with Jax and where he is developmentally. The sad thing is he had to get 4 shots as well as the rotovirus. Luckily he didn't have such a negative reaction to the shots this time around compared to his last appointment. He was sore that night but we can handle that compared to the 2-3 days it affected him last time. 

When we left the doctor gave us his growth charts which is what we were most excited to see. They were as follows which you can see below as well:

-Length - 23.75 inches... in the 0.01%tile

-Weight - 14.34 lbs... in the 2.53%tile

-Head Circumference - 16.24... in the 2.76%tile

-Weight/Height... in the 79.06%tile

This means he is really small but is a chunker. Last time we went in he was in the 95%tile for weight/height so he has "thinned" out a little bit.  As parents we are so proud of this little man and look forward to seeing him continue to progess and can't wait to see the little dude that he is going to be. 

Later that night we decided that we wanted to feed Jax fruit for the first time. As you can guess he loved it. The first fruit he tried was peaches. Since then he has tried several other things. He is a champ when it comes to eating.
