Bon Voyage

It's finally here! Tomorrow we fly out to go on our cruise I'm so excited and stressed. I feel like I need another week to get everything ready. I always thought It would get easier to travel the older my kids got, but I think its harder because I have to make sure they have every little thing taken care of and make sure they are where they need to be. But I will miss being able to check my blog everyday, I swear I'm addicted. I will be thinking about all you back here in the cold! Pictures soon to come.

I love this picture because it shows off his rolls everywhere

Three years ago today at 10:30 a.m. my sweet Jaxon Brace came into our lives weighing 9 lbs. 4 oz. and 21 inches long. He was such a good baby, always happy and hardly ever cried, even when his brother Karsten wouldn't leave him alone. (which he still doesn't) It doesn't seem like it was that long ago that I found out I was pregnant with my third boy, and it makes me sad to think he is growing up so fast. He is so much fun to have in our family and we just love him to death even if he is a little trouble maker and bullies his 2 older brothers. Above are some pictures in random order of our baby Jack Jack. Happy Birthday Jaxon, I love You~ Mom

His Cuteness Is Deceiving

I've always heard the term terrible two's but I've decided it's more like late 2's horrible 3's! Jaxon is turning 3 in a few weeks and he is being naughtier than ever! He is such a funny kid and people are just drawn to him, in church everybody in the hall that we pass stops and talks to him and says hi, his older brothers friends just love him, and want to play with him. But he is really starting to be a handful and my other kids were too at this age but he has far exceeded them and the trouble they got into to, he is so much smarter than they were at this age, so he gets into more sophisticated trouble! He has in the last week taken my chapstic out of my purse and drawn all over the mirror with it, he got the scissors and cut up my candle decoration, he has drawn all over the computer desk, my kitchen table, and our dish rags with marker, just to name a few. I don't know if he's just bored because his brothers are gone to school or he thinks he needs the attention I haven't figured it out yet. He also thinks he rules the roost! He is very hard headed and is kinda sassy and lets you know when you are doing something he doesn't like or making him do something against his will! He says some pretty funny things too, last night Ty said to him "lets fight" and put his fists up and Jaxon says to his dad "I'll knock you out" Good thing he's cute because some days that's all that keeps him alive! We love our little boy even if he is a stinker because at the end of the day he can say some pretty sweet things and he gives great hugs and kisses!
