Table for Two, please!

Jaxson had the luxury of having his first feeding with a spoon, yesterday, Tuesday March 26. And as we knew he would, he LOVED it. In fact every time I would take the spoon away to dip some more oatmeal onto it, he would whimper like "give me that back mom!" Haha. It was cute. He also thought it was hilarious every time I said "mmmmmm". He literally laughed out loud. He didn't know what to think about the high chair at first and when we first sat him in it, he cried. But overall he was really good during the feeding and it didn't get as messy as I thought it would. We are going to introduce a veggie this weekend.

He also went to the doctor for his 4 month checkup (he actually turned 4 months on March 20). He weighs 15lbs 14.5ounces and is 26.5inches long. The doc said he is super healthy and looks great. He had to get a total of three immunizations. One by mouth (hello why can't they all be this easy!!) and then one in each thigh. The first one he just whimpered for a sec and I thought to myself 'okay this isn't that bad...we got this.' But then the second one happened and it was a doozey!! Poor guy. It absolutely breaks my heart. After the shot I immediately scooped my sweetness up and gave him lots of loving!!! He will go back at 6 months.

Below are some pictures of our day before and during the appointment.

MarchRADness

As I say a lot, it is hard to believe that time is going so fast and that March is now quickly coming to an end. It was been a wonderful, super busy month, but we are SO looking forward to some sunshine and warm weather!

To catch up since my last post in early March...we have been really busy as we have had something to do every weekend.

"JAXsonisms"-Jaxson is growing quick as ever and is still such a sweet, happy, loving, cuteasabutton, precious little guy. He learns or does something new just about every day it seems like.

This past Thursday (03.21.13) he discovered that he could roll on his side. He has rolled on his side a few times since then. It won't be long and he will be rolling and turning all over the place...eeekkkk...they grow so fast ;(.

He also likes to watch cartoons on tv. He loves it and will just stare so in depth like he knows exactly what is going on :) too cute.

We take him back for his 4 month checkup on Tuesday. I have mixed feelings because he has to get his second round of shots and that is the SADDEST thing I have had to endure. But on the plus side we get to find out how much chunky weighs and he will get to start spoon feedings and baby food!! Ahhhh. I know he is going to love it.

This month was super busy. Jaxson and I went to a baby shower for sweet baby Chandler (one of my good friends, Lindsey's little boy). It was so nice to hangout with the girls and I think Jax enjoyed it as much as I did :) he is definitely a ladies man, haha. He also took his 3 month panel pictures. We should get those back tomorrow and I am so excited to see how they turned out. We attended a few of our niece, Chloe's softball games, took my kids on a field trip, and got to spend a lot of time in town with family. I also ran in my second 5k...the Color Me Rad race in Columbus with my off the chain runner friend, Brook. We finished in 38 minutes. Since I beat my time from the first 5k I am happy. And incase she is reading this, she definitely was the front runner in this one. I was very impressed and she probably could have done it in 30 had I not been there :). The race was a lot of fun and we are looking forward to the next 5k! Jaxson also got to visit the Easter Bunny and get a few pictures with him. He did good but didn't seem like he was impressed by it, haha. Jon also started building our privacy fence. We are super stoked about this as we have needed one bad. LeRoy does very well and doesn't run away but this way we can leave him out there when its pretty and won't have to worry about him. Can't wait to see the finished product- shouldn't be but a few more days! Yay!

Below are a few pics of the MarchRADness we have had....enjoy and thanks for keeping up with us!
