You got to roll with it...

Here is one of the unused pictures from last week's photo shoot. We got a really cute profile of him smiling, but this "shocked" pose really cracks me up.



Chad and I comment how Jax changes virtually every week. One week he finds blowing raspberries hilarious, the next he is entertained by cooing "ah, ah, ah." This week he has found side sleeping to be the latest rage. Whenever we lay him down he turns immediately on his side and falls asleep. The last few nights he has taken it to a whole new level... midway through the night he continues his roll and ends up on his stomach with his arms pinned beneath him. During the day getting out of this position is no problem, but it becomes a catastrophe when he finds himself on his stomach at night. He actually has a specific, "HELP! I'VE ROLLED OVER AND I CAN'T GET OUT!!!!" scream. We have found it delightful to wake up to in the middle of the night... We think this new little phase is cute, but we're pretty excited for when he learns that he can just roll over and everything will be fine again. It's funny to see how many things he has to learn, and how applying that seemingly simple knowledge will really make a difference in his life. Being a baby is tough work!

Man, how I miss that little rock-n-rollin' dude! Thank goodness for blogs, though, so we can at least hear about his latest babyventures.

Thanks for keeping us updated, thanks for being such great kids, and thanks for being such great parents to little Jax!

Love you all!

XOXO,

Hey Megan! I am so glad I found you on facebook and that we can stay in tough. I have wondered where you were and what you were up to...it seems so long ago that we were roommates in Logan! Your little Jaxon is so cute! Ben and I and our 2 boys live in Salem, OR. Life is good for us.
