Davis County Fair

Jaxs and I were able to attend the fair today but some close friends and there 3 children. Before we went to the fair, my friends daughters thought it would be cute if they would read to Jaxs, and it was so adorable!! 

We were able to see the horses, pet the cows, goats, and etc (Jaxs obviously did not touch anything). After seeing the livestock we were able to see the elephants and watch a tiger show. During this time, Jaxs was in his Boba, chillin like a villain. Following the tiger show, I took Jaxs out of his Boba to be fed and low and behold, my shirt was soaking wet from his sweat. Mmhhhh. Just what I needed, a sweaty shirt! I was able to go down a huge slide with my friends children, it was so much fun. We had such an amazing day at the fair. 

Funky Face Friday's

We went to a friends wedding today and had a blast. We ate, we talked, and more importantly, we danced; Jaxs of course slept through the whole thing. At one point we were sitting near the speakers, and Jaxs was still sleeping. He is such a cute little being that we love so much. During the one moment of him being alert, we were able to snap a phot of him and us being silly. I love that he even participated. 

Jaxs is one month <3

Jaxs has had a fabulous first month of life! He is such an amazing, calm baby who really loves snuggles. 

This week I went back to work to do training; fortunately, Jaxs was able to come with me. He spent an entire week with me, going to class to class. So many people loved seeing him that they wanted to hold, and as Jaxs loves snuggles, he loved all the attention. Following my week of training, my fabulous friends threw me a baby shower and so many people showed up. 

 He received so many gifts that we are so very grateful for. 

On this particular day, it was also my birthday. I was seriously so spoiled by my friends but especially by Chris. In our family, we have a family tradition of having a "birthday week". This means that every day, on the week your birthday falls on, you receive a gift a day and on your actual birthday, a day full of pampering and etc. Chris started my birthday celebration on Monday and in the following you will see my gifts that I received:

Monday: Olive Garden

Tuesday: 25$ - get a manicure 

Wednesday: Cold stone

Thursday: Sushi

Friday: candy basket

Saturday (birthday): breakfast in bed, shopping spree, outback and Cheesecake Factory for dessert. 

Chris and Jaxs spoiled me rotten. I love those boys so much. #myfavoriteme. 

After my amazing birthday week/ weekend, I went in on my week
off to get started on getting my classroom ready. Jaxs did so week, but since I had to be up and moving, I had wrap him in his Bona... He loved it!

After a week of BoBa's, cleaning and erring up, Jaxs and I successfully set up my classroom. He is such a great helper. 

Chris and I were not tired one night, and not was Jaxs. We ended staying up and cuddling. It was so much fun. 

We are getting really excited because my sisters are coming down and as well as my nephews. Jaxs and I are really excited for his cousins to finally meet him. 

We are so grateful that we have an amazing family that loves us and supports us. Go family!!!!!

A week of Firsts

Jackson has had quite an amazing week of outings. Chris and I decided that we wanted to give Jaxs a gift that he can carry with him for the rest of his life and to also pass down to his children, therefore, we decided to get a bear. Where is the best place to get a bear... Build a Bear. We went to Build a bear and built him the cutest little teddy bear. we got to pick him out, stuff him, and place a cute little heart in the bear filled with a wish. I can't tell you the wish because it won't come true, but all Chris and I want out of this life is for Jaxs to live to his fullest potential and be happy. We decided that we wanted to dress his Bear up, so we bought him an outfit, a Thor outfit. Jackson's bear is now called Thor bear; he has a birth certificate and everything. We wanted to give him a superhero bear because for Jackson's month-to-month pictures of his first year of life, his month-tomonth stickers are superhero based. We are going to be placing him, with his superber month tie sticker on a onesie next to his bear, which will show his growth over a year. We were so excited to make him this bear and to see his growth. 

Jackson also came with me to the Eye Doctors where I received glasses. After so many years of not wearing glasses, ever, the doctor prescribed me the lowest prescription ever; it is only meant to make things look sharper. I can wear them, not wear them, but I must admit, they are pretty shnazzy. 

This was Jackson's first day of church. We kept him from "overly" crowded places because: 1. He is so dang cute people will want to touch him and 2. people have germs. Because Jackson was a Premie and his immune system was still developing, the doctor suggested we keep him from corded places. After the two weeks, Jaxs just had some slight congestion and we did not want to make matters worse, so we kept him indoors and away from overly crowded places. After a couple weeks of having Jaxs stay inside, we finally took him to church this past Sunday. It was so amazing to see everyone reaction to our adorable son and to remember that families are forever. I am very grateful that I believe in an amazing religion that teaches us many amazing things and for Jackson to grow up with great values. 

I wanted to take pictures with Jackson and his new Thor Bear but he was not pleased. These are one of the many pictures that I took of him, and as you can see from his expression, he was not happy. We are going to be taking family pictures soon and I am so excited because by looking at the photos I take, we are in need of some help.
