Family Picture Time

This past week we went to Camera Shy to get family pictures taken. I am so happy that we went and upset that it took us this long to go. If you cannot tell we are so freaking happy. Love these two more than anything. 

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.

One of Jax's favorite things to do each night is brush his teeth. When these photos were taken he only had 2 teeth but he now has 6! Holy Moly!

Visit with Momma Sarrina

We were lucky enough to meet with some of Jax's birth family yesterday! Momma Sarrina, brother Austin and Sister Sarah all came. We were all together for about 2 or so hours and it was simply wonderful. You can tell that Jax has a special bond with them. He would constantly find Mommy Sarrina in the room and just grin at her. Both Shaileen and I were worried that Jax was going to be grumpy because he did not get much of a nap throughout the day because we were busy running around all day. He was great though and was as happy as can be throughout most of the visit.

I have to say how thankful we are for Jax's birth family. They have absolutely no idea how much they mean to us with the gift they gave us to parent Jax. We are forever indebted to them. We believe that adoption is such a wonderful thing because that means more people to love on Jax. Jax will always know his birth family and have a relationship with them as long as they are willing. Just like LDS Family Services motto says. ADOPTION: ITS ABOUT LOVE!
