15 month check up

This last week was Jax's 15 month check up with the doctor. We are always excited to go see how big he has gotten (or small he still is). We thought we would share how tiny he still is. Other than that he is progressing so well and is as smart and as cute as can be. His "stats" are as follows:

Weight 19.25lbs -6.08%tile

Head Circumference 17.52 in - 3.65%tile

Weight/length -24.97%tile

Length - 29 inches - 1.22%tile

As I always say we are so proud of him. It is so much fun watching him grow up each and every day. 

Yes, I am a terrible parent and forgot to take pictures while we were there. 

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!

 

 

Meet Benson

Meet Benson

 

This past week Shaileen got her wish. I finally gave the final ok to get a dog. She has been asking for one for a long time. We have had two in the past but were not in a place we could keep them because we were in apartments and worked 10 hours shifts. The past couple of weeks we have been looking into what kind of dog we want and what would be the best for us. We went to the humane society twice and even a huge pet adoption event at the state fair park but just could not find a dog that was the best for us. Then we got online and found Benson. We met his previous owner at their work and decided right then and there that he was for us. He is a 10 month old goldendoodle that is already house broken and is excellent with kids. When new people come over to our house he gets really excited like a lot of puppies but I am sure that will get better with time. We are excited to have him in our family. Jax absolutely loves him and plays fetch with him already. They are going to grow up being buds for years to come.

 

Jax helping Daddy

This past week we went to the DI and something popped out and caught our eye. Jax bought a power drill for $0.50. He absolutely loves it and carries it everywhere. It is funny because he really know what it was until last night. I bought a towel holder so I had to install it which means I had to use my power drill. Jax came in and helped me put it on the wall. He was enthralled and watched everything I did. I look forward to teaching him and having him help me with stuff around the house. It was definately a proud dad moment.
