Fun Weekend!!!!

Hello everyone, so we just had the funnest weekend this summer so far. We started off by going to a rodeo friday night which was pretty fun. All the bull riders must have decided they all wanted to come right by the fence where we were sitting so we could see all the action lol. Then we went to Glendale Lake in preston on saturday where travis's brothers wife's brother and his wife brought their waverunner. We had so much fun on there they let us ride alot and even talked me into trying wakeboarding for the first time...! I was so scared but I tried it and on only my 4th try I got up but then face planted it lol. I tried a couple more times and got up again and actually stayed up for like 15 seconds it was so much fun..! Once I fell I tried to get up again like 15 more times so that I could go past travis who was on shore because we were practicing in a different part of the lake but I was just too tired. I would show pictures but on a waverunner theres no way the person can turn around and take a picture. I'll be sure to get one when we go up to travis's grandpas cabin 4th of july weekend cuz we'll be boating and wakeboarding alot up there. But then when we left there we went and changed and met up with travis's brother and his wife again to play doubles tennis. That was alot of fun except we got beat (if you ask travis he'll say we won lol). Today when we woke up I could barely move every muscle in my body was screaming at me and we were so sunburnt because we remembered to lather jaxton but didnt put any on ourselves lol. So after we got up travis went with his friends to play more tennis and I went shopping with a friend. After a few hours travis came home and was even more burnt im talking boiled lobster so to cool off me, travis, jaxton and our 2 married friends went to Hyrum Dam and swam for a bit. For dinner we barbequed and talked outside for hours then came home to bed. All in all it was an awesome weekend and im so excited its summer..! I'll be sure to post sunburnt pictures tomorrow lol ;)

Tongue clipped ;-(

Today I had to play the role of mean mommy. Jaxton had an appointment to see the autorhinolaringologist (ears nose and throat doc) for him to get his tongue clipped. I was so nervous going there today I almost couldnt do it by myself. I was afraid something would go wrong or he might be in alot of pain and the thought of that made me teary eyed. You see jaxton has a normal sized tongue but the little flap of skin that grows under the tongue had grown too far forward so me and travis were worried he would have trouble speaking right or doing normal things like licking an ice cream cone one day. When he would try to stick his tongue out it would get caught on his teeth and he would have a snake like tongue and couldnt stick it out very far. So sadly (with ALOT of convincing from travis) we decided it was with the best interest for him. Oddly enough when it came time to actually do it he didnt even squirm or cry it was over in 10 seconds, he just jumped and looked at me like what the heck just happened for a second then went on with playing with the toy we gave him as a distraction. Of course they made me hold him down which horrified me, I couldnt bare to be that close so I shut my eyes cuz I definitely couldnt stand to see the procedure done. Im just glad all in all it turned out good and he is ok now. We went and got ice cream afterwards for him being such a champ for me. Thank you jaxton for being so strong and helping mommy not freak out. If he would have cried it would have been mount rushmore in there for me im such a baby lol.

Sprinkler fun

So me and jaxton went over to my friends house yesterday to play with her daughter in the sprinkler toy they just bought. I got him in his swim suit for the first time this summer and he looked so darn cute but unfortunitely he did not like that idea. The splashing was making him scared and the water was a little too cold for him. Needless to say we only played for about 15 min. The best part of the day was that I stripped him down to nothing and let him play under a tree in the shade for about a half hour and he just loved that lol. So here is 2 pictures of him in his swimsuit playing with my friends daugher.

LITTLE TEXAS...!

On friday I had the chance to go to my very first concert. Travis took me to go see the country rock group Little Texas. We went with his brother and his wife and travis's little sister. It was so much fun we werent even planning on going but his family asked if we wanted to go with them so we thought what the heck why not. We had ok seats kinda far in the back so we couldnt really see them very good so travis's sister and sis in law were like lets jump the railing and run up to the stage even though it was blocked off for people who paid alot more to stand close. So after some pursuading I decided to do it with them and when we got to the entrance we were just about in then this lady stopped us and asked for our wrist bands (which we didnt have) but after a second this other lady comes up and says its ok cuz we were cute its ok to let us in. How cool is that lol. So we stood there in this big crowd like 10 feet away from the band. It was so awesome I loved their music it kept us on our feet and dancing for a long time. The guys were too chicken to come with but thats ok cuz we ha a good time without them lol. It was kinda funny cuz there were these 4 drunk old ladys in front of us in the crowd and they were dancing all funny and yelly "woo hoo" real loud. But after about 5 or 6 songs we went back to the guys and sat by them till it ended. All in all it was a great night that we didnt expect to have but here are some pics. Sorry if some of them are blurry I had to take the pics with my phone. The first 2 pics are of our seats we had then the last one was of the band when we were up close.

New food..!

As you know jaxton has gotten 4 teeth and has been a champ about it. He has had this little cold though that just wont seem to go away. I can see why with the weather here staying below 60 degrees most days. Anyways he has had these teeth for a little over a week and has slowly started acting up during meal times. He started spitting the food out when I would give him a bite then he started pinching his lips closed and lately he'll flat out hit the spoon out my hands. So I finally figured it out. You see when I feed him its always at the same time as I eat so I started noticing that he stares at me with wide eyes while we eat. I started giving him bites of my food and now he wants to eat the same stuff as I do. So today for lunch instead of the usual applesauce or squash baby food I made mac and cheese. He loved every bite lol I didnt want to feed him too fast so I waited for him to swallow a noodle before I gave him another. He was getting so mad though he wanted to eat another bite while the noodle was hanging out of his mouth. It was quite entertaining actually. So here are a few pics of him after he ate. I just love that smile he was so happy...!

Now the last picture doesnt have to do with eating its to do with his hair. Recently his hair has started growing pretty fast and it started going curly! So the last pic is of his hair and I hope you can tell its curly cuz it looks more curly in person then in this picture.
