Jaxon's First Milestone

Well, we have finally mastered the art of rolling over onto our belly and screaming our head off until Mommy comes to my rescue!!

For the past week, Jaxon had been rolling from side to side, trying to get enough momentum to get that fat belly over and he finally accomplished it! On Monday, August 18th he rolled over not once, not twice, but 3 times and even showed off for Daddy. We were getting a little nervous after looking at Mason's journal and finding out he had rolled over at 2 and a 1/2 mths... not that we honestly cared. I cannot believe he will be 4 months tomorrow and Mason will be 3 in a month! My babies are growing up so fast!! :(

Jaxon has also decided he wants to give his lungs a work-out and wake everyone up at 1am and 5am. He has been doing this for the past week or so. At first, I would just give him a bottle and I think that is what got it started. The doctor said he doesn't need a feeding in the middle of the night anymore, so we have stopped that the past few days and my little fat man IS NOT HAPPY!!

As for Mason, he has been staying active. He bowled for the first time on Monday and we painted pottery last week. He wanted to paint a 4-wheeler like Papa's! It's a cool mixture of blue, green and red... what a piece of art! He is also obsessed with stickers. As he says, "Mommy, if you are good you get 1 sticker!" Jaxon gets stickers on his head, stickers on the carpet, furniture...you name it, it has been blessed with a sticker!! I walked into the living room the other day b/c Mason was being too quiet (first sign of trouble) and he had put 12 stickers on the hardwood floor. These, ofcourse, were not the kind that easily pull up. No, I had to scrape each one off with my fingernail and still had a gooey mess! Oh, how much fun with 3 boys in the house!!

Go Jaxon Go!!! That's great news; he'll be walking before you know it! Stickers aren't such a bad thing for Mason to be into, I guess. It could be crazy glue...now that would be interesting :(
