Favorite sayings

Now that I am talking up a storm, I really crack Mom and Dad up! I really love to play with dry macaroni noodles, scooping, pouring etc. When I'm done, I am supposed to clean them all up before I play with anything else. I always tell Mommy, "All done!" and Mommy sings the clean up song for me. I then will put one noodle back in the tupperware and shout, "Mommy turn!" (This means mommy is supposed to clean up the rest). Yesterday at church, Mommy gave me a piece of candy with a wrapper. She asked if I wanted help unwrapping it, and I said, "Jaxon do it!" After about a minute of trying to get the wrapper off (Unsuccessfully) I said, "My Goodness!" Mom and dad were laughing hysterically. Also at church, I really enjoy taking the sacrament. I was getting pretty loud, and mommy told me to be quiet for the prayer, and then it would be time for the water. I was quiet, and when the prayer ended I yelled, "AMEN! WATER TIME!!!" Everyone around us was laughing, including Mom and Dad even though they were a little embarrassed!

Day at the park

Yesterday we had the greatest picnic "Pick-in" at the park! It was perfect weather for playing and playing and never getting too hot. Mommy, Aunt Amber, Oakley, Kalle, Cousin Heather and her family, and Lavonne (our next door neighbor who I LOVE!) and her grandson, and best of all GRAMMIE AND PAPA all came. Mommy made sandwiches, cut strawberries, got chips, juice boxes, and cookies and it was great. We ate and then just played and played! I love playing with my sand toys that I got for my birthday, climbing on the "big kid" toys (Jungle-gym) and swinging. I even survived a 5 foot fall out of a swing when Papa pushed me a little too hard. (In his defense, I am a daredevil and kept telling him to push me higher and higher!) I landed on my front (face in the sand) but I just got sand in my mouth. Papa let me have some of his soda to wash it out and I was fine. I really am such a BOY. I could play all the day long and be happy happy happy! I love all kids big and small, and adults too for that matter. I never met a person I didn't like, and as a result I always have lots of people to play with at the park (the mall, the store, anywhere!) After our picnic I was so tired that after almost a 3 hour nap mama had to wake me up to run errands. Nothing like good playing and good napping. Life is sure good as a 2 year old!

Playing at Grammie and Papa's

I really love to play at Grammie and Papa's house. When I am sad, I always say "Go home Mommy. Want go home." And by "home" I mean grammie and Papa's house! The other day Oakley and I were playing outside with Papa, and helping him in his shop. I love to drive the John Deer play car. Oakley doesn't really like to ride with me, but he's to little to reach the peddles by himself, so Papa put his big hat over Oakleys eyes so he couldn't see. Then we went in Papa's shop while he cut out wooden cars. I love all the noise and laugh and laugh when Papa uses his saws. It scares Oakley, so I try to hug him when he cries, but he doesn't like that much either.

Crazy day!

(A note from mom) Today when I came to pick Jaxon up from the Kid's Club at the gym, he was in the area for small babies, and he was in a bouncer. I asked what on earth he was doing in there, and they said he had been quite the "terror" today. He had dumped the whole huge box of crayons on the ground, and then tried to cut one of the adults hair with scissors. Anyway, we are still working on right and wrong, and some days are just like that!

A letter from Mom

Jaxon, you are growing so big. Everyday you try new things, and say new things that just crack us up. Right now we are working on Modesty and privacy, because for some reason, you really like to lift up people's shirts and look at their backs. The other day we were driving in the car, and you said, "Mommy? Poe-poe skin, pivat? (Mommy, people's skin, private?) So I said, yes Jaxon, people skin in private. You said, "Hands mommy? Hands pivat?" I said, "No, only private parts." You said, "Bum-bum mommy?" and I told you yes. Then you said something that just cracked me up, you said, "Mommy, Chucky Sue bum-bum, PIVAT!!!" Chucky Sue is a toy dog that you got for Christmas (that you named after a character in an Elmo video) but you rarely play with him. I have no idea what made you think of Chucky Sue's bum-bum, but I think it was a crack up. Some other things that you say that are funny right now, are "Jaxon hat, cool!" "bulie B's" (Blueberries) and "staw-blee-lees" (strawberries)
Here is a picture of you sitting on Kalle's bike. You can't push the peddles, but it doesn't stop you from sitting on it and yelling, "Looky me mommy!" I love you big boy!~

I need a drink!

Well, Mommy must not have been meeting my water needs, so I decided to take matters into my own hands.

This is me dipping a pinecone (That I found on the ground in Grammie and Papa's backyard) into yucky old rain water that was trapped in the side of a ladder.




This is me sucking that yucky water off the pinecone!! ( I really liked it and did it for about 3 minutes- dipping and sucking)




Finally I decided that the pinecone was just too much hassle and I would just drink the water right off the ladder...mom was pretty grossed out, but she didn't make me stop because she wanted to take my picture!

Mr Smiley Face

I am such a happy boy! Especially when my Mommy comes outside to play with me! Today she was taking pictures of me for a photo assignment, and I was trying to run her over with my bouncer bike- all-in-all a great day!
